    Stomach needs to shrink

    Well I weighed this morning.. I am up to 124 or 125 who knows. I am really going nuts without my fill....2 more wks.....God help me to help myself.. This band is in me for a reason.. I paid 8000 for this tool. Let my hands and mind make the correct sound judgement when I make food choices today and in the future I love myself and I will work thru this....

    Any foods you can never eat again???

    :clap2: :help: I gave up eating bread and pasta and carrots.. ITs been that way since I was banded in March.. I even had an UNFILL and still dont eat that stuff anymore.
  16. I had unfill due to me reaching my goal weight.. But now its only been 2 wks and I am thinking I want to go another 15 pds.. SO in 2 wks I go back to TJ and get a FILL. I have a 5cc band, and I have 1.6 cc in now I hope to go back up to 2.4 cc.. that is a good fill for me banded 3/29/08 Dr.Corvala TJ 178/133.6/115 62"
