My Cruise....

[marfar7 1,533]

Hey all,

I just got married on Dec 3rd and went on a Mexican cruise the day after. After losing 104 lbs in 2 yrs, 8I finally gained 5 lbs. I've been on 2 other cruises since banding and didn't gain but this time I ate a lot more. I think I need a fill. Unfortunately were visitng familt 4 the holidays out of state until january so I can't get one till then. Now I find myself worrying about calories and my weight. Haven't worried about those things in a long time. My husband keeps trying to get me to eat lo carb (he's lost 80 lbs that way) bu5t 8I refuse to diet again. I spent my whole life on a diet and that's why I got the band. Hopefully a fill will help get me under control again. I can defiantely eat more now and I don't get stuck very often.I guess ill just enjoy my holidays and get a fill when I get home. And I was only 9 lbs from goal...oh well.

Happy holidays everyone

No big deal at all, just a tune up in living with the band which we older banders will probably always need! I really like your attitude...no dieting!!!

Reading this I am just glad to see you are not deiting. I am still a new at this and I have only had one fill and not loosing like I would like and I keep thinking I need to also go on a diet. But then I think why did I get banded? I get another fill tomorrow so I hope that will help. I can't wait until I am as close as you are to my goal! I love the hollidays but wish all the food did not have to go with it! Good luck.

You'll be okay, I just cruised for the 1st time in November. I have been real loose and then had gained 4 lbs so, today got a fill. I am quite tight,but look better a few lbs thinner. That what the lapband and fills are for though! Good luck. Karen
