It's been about three weeks since my fill. i have to wait another week for an appointment, because he was all booked up, which is frustrating. But i'm back to feeling like the band's not even there. I know it's a process/journey, but i just want to get to that green zone now!!! i want to see real consistent progress.

my weight loss has been inconsistent. The week of my first fill i went down 3 lbs in the first three days, but then i gained 6 lbs that wasnt water weight because i had to work it off lb by lb. that was very frustrating and confusing because i didnt know what caused it. i was eating so much less than before i should have had a loss for the week for sure! when that stuff happens i get very down despite my best efforts, which inturn leads to food thoughts. which is tough.

Four days ago i weighed and i was back down to what i was after the 3 lb loss after my fill (took practically three weeks to lose those 6 lbs that magically appeared... and today i weighed and have lost 2.5 from that low which i was kind of surprised to see in a good way obviously. but now i at home i have lost 30 lbs!! (at the dr its less but they say to go by my home scale) so i guess the lesson i'm trying to get into my head that may not really be accurate is that there will be ups and downs. ups that are undeserved (or maybe deserved) and then downs which are undeserved or deserved, but hopefully things will even out for a positive outcome and weightloss.

i think i am expecting too fast of weight loss. because my overall weightloss for these three weeks hasnt been bad (not great but not bad) ive lost 5.5 in three weeks which evens out to almost 2 a week which i know is healthy. but i expect more.

should i be expecting more or is this normal for everyone???
