Lots of changes

I haven't posted in over a month, but my life is changing and I am working hard to keep up my progress, since I had a few hard weeks.

 

I started eating bad stuff around my bday (cake, etc.) and my blood sugar went high for the first time since surgery. I forgot how sick I used to feel! It scared the hell out of me and I am being a very conscientious eater now, going to the gym, etc.

 

I got my first fill last week and I can feel the difference. Right after the fill, I tried to eat a small sandwich and started gagging after 4 bites. I stood over the sink for 10 mins, wondering if it was going to be this bad forever, but I was better by dinner. My appetite is way down and I fill up very quickly.

 

I found a support group that actually talks about the emotional side of this surgery, which I needed. I think it will really help me.

 

I also found a potential boyfriend via the Internet. We have been talking 2x day for over a month and we meet today. He likes big girls but I told him about the surgery and he said no biggie. I hope it works out.

 

Gotta go do laundry. Best of luck to all!

Hi, I have my first fill on sept.4th. I'm hoping to see some difference because right now I can eat as much as I want of whatever I want...I can barely tell I even have a band! Good to hear your story. Keep us posted about your internet boyfriend...For some reason I have no luck on those things..and I have been on alot of them. Nobody ever sends me a message :tongue2: Oh well, maybe God isn't ready for me to meet the right one yet! I must be patient on BOTH issues!
