sooooo im a shocker with doing the whole blog thing...i keep meaning to but get side tracked oh well

 

I'v been getting really upset this week due to the fact that my scales keep flitting back and forth between 2 kg its been 4.5 weeks since my band went in and by the scales iv only lost 3-4 kgs depending on the day,i spoke to my gorgeous friend who was banded a few weeks before me and she told me to do my measurments so here they are

neck : lost 2cm

bust:lost 6.5cm

waist:8cm

hips:lost 11cm...yes 11

thighs:lost 3cm of each but the left is still 2cm bigger than the right wtf

 

so im a bit happier now cause i know thats more than 4kgs must just mean iv built up some mean ass muscle with my walking:thumbup:

 

Got my first fill last saturday 5ml ai a 10ml band don't really fell all that restricted and im sure i could eat more than im sposed to but at the moment im trying real hard to stick to the portion sizes drw wants me to have....in saying that as much as i don't feel full im not hungry for at least 3-4 hours after eating so somethings workin

Give the fill some time - sometimes my band gets sooo ridiculously tight during PMS, it's like I was freshly filled, even if it'd been months.

Also, your legs could be different sizes if you tend to put weight on one leg versus another, cross one leg over another (the support leg stays bigger) or sleep on one side. My right leg takes all the abuse!
