  4. Hey girl! I got another fill a few days ago, I'm at 8.0cc in a 10cc band! I dont think I can go any tighter then this...I can hardly eat alot..I hope this finally works...how r u?

  5. lol....hmm, maybe you should cut down the dinner to under 300 calories, atleast for yourself, not for your boyfriend. I was advised to stay within 1000 calories per day...when I followed that rule and excersized consistently and drank alot of water, I as dropping 5+ pounds per day...now, I dont listen lol so Im on a plateau...I dont plan on dieting until after graduation tho lol I am not tryna starve while celebrating lmaoo

  6. The band becomes lose around your stomache after you lose alot of weight, thats why they encourage us to continue getting our fills after a great amount of weight loss
  7. Ever since I got restriction (7.7 cc in a 10cc band) I've been feeling full and losing weight. Most of the time I dont get stuck but there are some days where it just pops up out of no where and no matter how small of a bite I take, I feel uncomfortable which last for maybe 5 min Eating out is the worse! Especially when theres no bathrooms lol..One time I went to BBQ'S and I felt uncomfortable. I was searching for the nearest bathroom just in case I needed to use it and when I looked over, it was packed! I got scared and started to eat realllyyyyy slow lol Sometimes I feel like people are watching me. From the time I sit down till I get up. I usually get a salad at this pizza place and seating are extremly limited. I feel like their timing me like "damn this girl been sitting here eating a salad and shes not done yet? people need seats!" lol...I have to play around with my food at times or with my phone so it can look like im distracted and thats why im taking so long. From an outsider, they wouldnt understand why it would take someone 30 min- 1 hour just to eat a salad. My birthday is sunday and I want to go to Red Lobsters. I feel the need to sit close to the bathroom just in case something doesnt want to go down lol Im so concious of the band (which is a good thing) but I feel like I have a fear of eating in public at times Sometimes I have no problem at all! But other days it just pops up. I stay away from certain foods such as hard meat and chineese food and other foods that I know wont go down Getting an unfill is NOT an option for me lol Although I feel uncomfortable at times, I still get full for maybe 4 hours off small portions. I like the rate in which Im losing, it took me 9 months to get restriction and I dont want to mess it up Anybody fear eating in public at times?
  8. girl right now I hit a plateau..Im stuck n afraid to even look at the damn scale lol I prob gained like 5 pounds, o well..I was soo close to the -50 mark but I screwd up..Imma pick it up after I graduate in 2 weeks lol...my tyical day would be a chocolate live right shake 4 breakfast, go to lucille roberts n hit the treadmill for 30 min and then so strength training for 30 min then have an orange and a banana for snacks...then have a salad for lunch or maybe fish and then another snack would be greek yougurt and then 4 dinner prob a lil rice or my live rite shake..wut bout u

    Worst Foods

    without any fills anything can go down...but once u hit restriction or your a little "tight" then certain foods wont go down or it will make you feel uncomfortable. The most common foods are rice, bread, pasta, and other greasy foods...But for me, its chineese food and hard meat...other foods make me feel uncomfortable for like 5 min and those would include salad oranges and pizza
  10. Sleswick- I ate salad bc of my busy schedule with taking 7 classes, internship, and workstudy...When it came to eating, I had everything down pack. Would drink my choc live right shake 4 Breakfast eat an orange and bananna 4 snack then when Im close 2 school I would grab a salad n eat..,either a salad or a piece of fish..I found that the salad kept me full alot longer though, but I think its cause they added alot of crutons and chicken. Even though it souds fattning but it doesnt harm me because I manage to lose 5 pounds every week from it :w00t: sometimes I get stuck on my first few bites of the salad so I have to sit there and wait 5-10 minutes and then it will all go down Micky- lmaoo that story is funny. I understand what you mean because I get stuck within the first few bites and I hate it! But once I spit it out a few times I can eat everything lol thats so wierd. Lindajs- I think when she said "plugged" she meant throwing up
  11. Dont be scared, just take each day at a time. Once its time to eat mushy, start with something small like mash potatoes..if you can tolerate that, then try ground beef..If those dont go down then contact your doctor. But Im sure you'll be fine :w00t:
  12. Yeah maybe its the liquids we drink...cause sometimes I may get a glass of liquor if im at red lobsters or something...& yes eating with alot of people can be a lil easier bc it stalls time to eat slowly. You can talk and do other stuff without having to take bite after another bite, you naturally take your time
  13. lol I havent had a fill in like 2 months I feel like I should go back maybe next month lol I dont want to gain (even tho I already did gain these past 2 weeks) I think its time 4 a fill, but then again Im scared bc if I get any tighter, I may not eat out anymore...but maybe I should avoid eating out period, probably help me cut out calories and stuff lol ill eat out one I reach onederland!
  14. lol I eat fine at home 2
  15. yeah eating home is always safe thats where I try daring foods to see if I can eat it or not lol
  16. Its perfectly normal to feel that way, but yes it may take a while to get restriction especially if your doc doesnt like giving huge fills and they make you come back every 4-6 weeks. So yes we have to be patient in order to get restriction. But once you get it, portion control becomes sooo easy :thumbup:
  17. I hope yours gets better too!
  18. Most likely your hair will start thinning/falling out around 4/5 months post op...What I did was eat protein, take biotin, and wash my hair with NIOXIN! slowly my hair started to grow back. My hair is nice and thick now..I've been treating it for about 3 months now, so just be patient, it will grow back as long as you take care of the problem :thumbup:
