Deweydoer 111 Posted September 28, 2013 The Dr. said he wasn't going to fill me until I hit a plateau. He said that every once in a while he has a patient who is in the green zone with just the little bit he filled during surgery. He told me that if I stopped losing my 2-3 pounds a week, I could call and he would get me in to do a fill. I'm telling you that I feel the real reason I'm losing weight because I have my head in it. I have never had my head in the game before and I'm happier than I have ever been. Weight has been the only thing in my life that has been out of control and it feels so good to be in control of it, finally. 1 jfc193 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Veronica68 81 Posted September 28, 2013 You are doing super! My doctor bases fills on what I am eating, and how hungry I am. To be honest, I think it's wrong for doctors to say they will only fill when your not loosing weight. As you said, you have your head in the game. It is certainly possible to be loosing weight because your sticking to a program, but have lots of hunger. Just a thought. Best wishes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deweydoer 111 Posted September 29, 2013 Well, the good thing is that I'm not having too much hunger. Because I have my head in the game now, I know that the hunger is not a bad thing, I'm not going to die, it's just a signal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
