Sean's Mom

My surgery was in July of 2008! I have really only lost about 49 lbs. I seem to have a 10lb variance all the time, up and down. I HATE having fills done, and I realize this is probably why I have not lost more. How pathetic is it? I think I've had a total of 4 or 5 fills in two years! They have a hard time hitting my port, the Dr always has to come in and do it, and even with him and the sonography-it slides. I am sore for days after this. Plus I hate the nurse that is always telling me, the more weight I lose it'll be easier for them to hit the port! Excuse me? With her looking down her nose attitude, I also don't care to go back in. Compare to how I used to eat and comsume coca cola- my life changes have been drastic! I eat small portions several times a day, if I ever try and over do it, things come up! Yes, even with going months between fills. I drink a lot of tea and water. I am very bad at not exercising. Started off strong, and then I've gotten lazy again. There are two ladies at my job, that have both had the band done this year. I'm now starting to hang my head-they both seem to be making better progress than me, and yes, you know people talk! Anyways, I know I've done things right. I do watch what I eat. For this amount of weight though, I think surgery was a waste.
