I know i haven't updated in a while, so i thought i'd jump on now for acouple of minutes. I had my first fill on the 19th of october. I am currently down 35.5lbs , I think this is a great invention. I can pretty much eat anything except grapes i slime with them! But it's alright , I am never hungrey , but i do eat lunch and dinner with a cup of tea in the morning. I eat a plate of dinner and i'm usually full until lunchtime the next day. I'm really glad i didn't stray from what the doctors told me to eat and when. i have friends who haven't lost as much and always feel hungrey, because they cheated so, they most likely stretched their band out already. I 'm going back to my second job on the 4th and i'll pretty much be back to normal. i gat a walk in every morning and then i've been really cleaning my house. The trash men aren't to happy , but i can run through my attic without falling over alot of junk. I'm gonna be starting a gym the first of December, so that will helpme too. Thank GOD for edies sf ,ff vanilla and chocolate ice creams . there the best in a crunch. We'll i'm making halloween cookies and i want to get back to it. It's amazing i'll eat 2 and be full. I've been telling everybody about the band and i've even showed the little scars that are left on my stomach. there not gonna be there much longer. coco butter and neo sporin! I 've got a hugh wedding coming up onthe first of December i 'm shooting for a whole 50 lbs off!! see ya.
