  1. This Fibro is kicking my butt... Had to take 2 days off from work... Anyone else out there have fibromyalgia??? Could really use some enncouragement right now...

  2. I had my 7th fill on July 5th. Seems like alot but I am only up to 6 CCs in my band. While I am feeling some restriction it is no where it should be. I was so stoked about my appointment because I have been eating right and excercising. I was sure I had lost something. NEGATIVE!!! I didn't even lose an ounce... WHAT?!?! Wait a minute how can that be... Hold on let me get naked and get back on the scale lol. How is it that literally the first month I am really on top of my game I don't lose anything??? I walked out of my appointment so disappointed in myself and so confused as to why I stayed the same... I know that everyone hits roadblocks in their journey's but I didn't think mine would be less than a year out. I have become a scale fiend- weighing myself every chance i get to see if I lose even an ounce. So not healthy!!! I think once I get it out of my sustem that this is just a little speed bump I will be ok. I just neeed to continue eating right, excercising, and believing in myself and it will be ok
  3. Starting to lose that confidance I had the first 7 months... Wondering what I am doing wrong that I am not losing the weight like I initially did... Tips? Advice? :(

    7 Months Out

    Went in for my fill today. Boy oh boy was I surprised when I got on the scale and had lost 6 pounds. I about did a happy dance right there in the hallway. Weight loss is finally on track (knock on wood). Now if I can only get the rest of my body to cooperate. I was just diagnosed with Fibromyalgia last week It sucks and the pain is enough to make me want to off myself. But I am going to survive this just like I did my obesity. Some good news is that my rheumatologist thinks that I may not have Lupus after all. He is still running blood tests since my levels are all over the place. Let's pray that that diagnosis is incorrect. Things are looking up in Ellenworld. I can't believe that I have lost this much weight in so little time.
  16. 73 pounds in 7 months :) Super duper excited... 102 more to go... I LOVE MY BAND!!!!
