I am finally back to my 40 lbs even today...Now that the weekend is over with its time to get back on track...I wanted to be at about 250 by christmas but it doesnt appear that its going to happen that way...I will take whatever comes my way and learn to deal with it...I am scheduled for my 3rd fill on the 17th of next month and have big plans for that fill...I want to be at about 200 or less by June (my 1 year anniversary of getting the band)...I dont plan on getting anymore fills after that point due to that is when the insurance stops covering the cost of them...So if I lose or not I will keep scheduling my fills about every 1 1/2-2 months from no on to try to keep on track...I still love the band and without it I wouldnt be at a 40 lb loss right now and anything is an improvement...The band is really kind of fickled...I took leftovers from dinner last night for lunch today at work..Last night it went down great and caused me to get sick at lunch today...But after a couple bites and having something get stuck then lunch was over for me which I guess was a good thing cuz I ate less and expect a little bit of a loss by tomorrow...I was planning on getting back on track with my workouts today since my medical problems have really been keeping me from doing anything strenuous for now...But I came home and mowed the front and backyard today so that counts as my workout for today..This in itself was great cuz in the past I had to mow the front yard one day and the back another just to make it thru it and now I can actually do both...:clap2:...Yipee for me!! As far as the medical stuff, its still going on and heavier than last week, but I have my follow up with my ob on friday and hopefully she will have some good news for me and help me get it under control...I think that I have rambled on enough for today, but more rambles to come in the near future...The band is good, the band is wise!!:hail: I bow to the band!!
