Second Fil....finally!

[Megansmommy 3]

After 4 weeks of hanging on by a rope, it finally came... My second fill date! Restriction is back! I can have a Muscle Milk and feel myself getting full. What a relief. I know it will change again, but I have a spring in my step again. 2 lbs down in first 5 days. That's a motivator!

I'm going on my first post-op date today. Big deal here! Thought I'd want to wait, but sometimes you just have to just take a chance. I'm more proud of myself for putting myself out there than excited to go. Part of "the journey."

Please know I'm with you all! Through highs and lows and all the plateaus!

----Much love and support---

Thank you! Ive only been in the green zone after surgery, and still not sure I'm there. My challenge is eating enough with restriction. I'm either at one extreme or the other (eat a lot or none at all). Everyone talks about liquid calories being so bad, but they are my life saver while I work ion my psychological pull on my eating.

I think liquid calories are only a big no-no when they come in the form of a milkshake, LOL. Really, I know I feel fuller on solid Protein, but the Protein Shakes work well for me in the morning when that's all I have time for. I also think that as I reach restriction I will not want solid stuff in the morning until my band loosens up, so shakes are a good thing!
