oh2bthin 0 Posted March 1, 2006 well i did it and went to mexico for my 4th fill (man what a trip) i had my fill done by dr.martinez and i am over the moon, i was so scared as it had been so long since i was looked at and i was shaking like a leaf , but everything was fine ,i got a 1cc fill and i am now at 7cc in a 10cc band and boy its working again. i suppose you could say i had a year off as i got a fill about a year ago and i felt restriction but it slowly went away through time or me just eating around the band and so i didn't lose a pound for all this time and got so discouraged i was almost thinking take the bloody thing out,, :faint: i am so glad i didn't and kept on as now i know i am back on track, i am self pay and the trip to mexico broke the bank a bit but if i now start to lose weight again its going to be worth every red cent !! i have lost three pounds since the 24th and could cry as its the first time in ages i seen the scale go down !! i went with hubby and stayed in the lucerna hotel (5 star) and had a fun night in there (no kids) say no more maybe thats where i wore off my three pounds ha ha. but i think i have sweet spot and know i won't be able to eat alot of the stuff i was cheating with like before , i have educated myself alot more and dr.martinez was brilliant giving me alot of tips.. well just a update and won'ted you all to know i am soooooooooo happy sherry xxx:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MyKdsDad 1 Posted March 2, 2006 Sherry, I think that is the good thing about the band. When you get ready to continue your trip to the new you, it's there, waiting.... And now you're back on the bike and heading down hill. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
