Yesterday, I got my second fill. I TOTALLY have restriction now. I can barely even drink chocolate milk this morning. I've had a few sips of apple juice and water and chocolate milk since yesterday at noon, and I am not hungry.
My 10cc band is now filled with 6cc of saline. Dr. Burleson did an agressive fill yesterday in hopes of jumpstarting my weight loss. I hope it's not too tight. The last fill gave me pretty good restriction for a few weeks, but after that, I didn't feel super restricted. I'll give this thing a week to see what happens. Hopefully the swelling will go down and I will be okay.
I'm super excited about getting healthy again. I already have more energy. I weighed 218 this morning! I"m on my way down again after a frustrating month of gaining 0.8 pounds. It's less than a pound, but frustrating after losing 11 pounds the month before. Time to move forward, and I think that by Christmas, my goal is to be 210. And 205 by my birthday.
I have to get back to the gym. I was going good there for a while and just flaked out in the last week. I was tired and hungry, more so than usual before my period, but I have to just start making myself go. I love it once I get into the routine of going and it makes me feel good.
Well, gonna go lay down and hopefully get rid of this crazy heart burn chest pain feeling I have this morning.
