nanster 0 Posted March 23, 2006 CarlaCollins: You're doing AWESOME!!! I had my 4 week appt today. They did a fill and I had lost only 15.6 pounds, but I was THRILLED. The fill was very easy, but tonight I did experience my first PB and it was miserable. But, maybe I just wasn't hungry! We'll see how things go over the next 2 days. They were shocked I was REALLY still eating mushies, so weren't sure if I needed a fill, but did one since it's 4 weeks. I'm excited about the prospect of REAL FOOD!!! A little scared of finding out which ones I CAN'T eat, but how else am I gonna find out??? I just hope I can eat ground beef...funny, but that's one of my favorite foods! You're ahead of me already, and I'm a little jealous (grin) but I'm SOOOOO excited for you!!! It doesn't matter how it's gone...it's gone and gone for good!!! You're an inspiration and someone for me to "chase" to catch up on weight loss!! LOL. Watch out for me as I come up from behind you!!! hee hee. You ROCK, Carla!!!

Lets lose 2 more by next week...whats ya say???? and thanks for the encouragement.... Much love Carla :nervous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
