xavier 153 Posted February 2, 2012 This is bandster hell where you are like why did I even do this I am just miserable on a (failing?) diet! Its horrible.

NIKOL 3 Posted February 3, 2012 I haven't lost an ounce since surgery on 1/4. My first fill is next Tursday, 2/6. I've started being more active and getting exercise in when I can, but I'm looking forward to the "green-zone" and seeing some progress on the scale.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jdunn23 10 Posted February 4, 2012 im also in bander hell. i feel ilittle to no restriction and it is so hard to control myself. i feel like im failing all the time. i know this is all new and to take it one day at a time but this is harder than i thought it would be. my first fill is on monday Feb 6. i cant wait. i hope that i feel more restriction with my first fill. i need the uplift. i try to stay positive, i havent gained any wieght thank God. i think that is do to me goin to the gym 3 to 4 times a week. i just need held with controling myself. but in time it will happen i gotta believe...

suzahhn 19 Posted February 6, 2012 I'm right there with you. I had a complete unfill due to excessive swelling and get my fill tomorrow. It has been a very long 2 weeks! I don't even want to weigh myself :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1shauna1 129 Posted February 6, 2012 Unfortunately sometimes it can take a long time to get it right....I'm 1.5 years out and I still have hit or miss restriction. Tonight I was able to eat wayyyy too much lasagna and I think I need another fill. Of course earlier I was PBing, so.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jennabean27 6 Posted February 6, 2012 to shauna, wouldnt lasagna be a slider so it would make a little more sense to eat more? also what it PBing. i thinking pb&j but i know that's not what u mean. cant wait til valentines day for my fill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laddie1229 18 Posted February 6, 2012 Just because its a slider food( seems most slider foods are bad for you)after you get to the solid stage doesn't mean to eat more. PD's are productive burbs after you have (A) ate too fast or ( ate too much. Sometimes they will help relieve your discomfort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
