Ok so last Thursday I went back to the doctor and got a 1/2cc fill which put me at 6 1/5 cc's total.....WOW, can you say tight!!! I can't hardly eat anything now and am throwing up a lot. I guess I am just going to have to live off of mostly liquids for a while. It takes me forever just to drink a protein shake now. Not to mention that I can't even chug my water. But I am going to live with it for now...although it's very frustrating at times because I would like to be able to eat some solid foods. I told my husband that I was definitely going to miss eating hamburgers on the grill this summer and I definitely miss eating a good ol'e Steak...sometimes I wish I didn't have the band because I miss so many foods, but then I realize that those foods are the reason I am banded. If I had had any self control in the first place then maybe I wouldn't be in this situation right now. Don't get me wrong...I am thankful for my band and am happy about the 38 lbs that I've lost so far...but no one ever said that this was going to be easy. Take care my fellow bandsters...I will check in with you all later. God Bless and Good luck to you all.
