Getting A Fill...finally!

[ErinMarie 186]

Hey Ladies!

Well, it's finally my time. Xander has stopped breastfeeding and is 6 months old now. I got into a funk and stopped counting calories...then I did a really stupid thing and weighed myself last night (after sitting at work all day)...252!!!! OH HELLS NO (was at 197 when I found out I was pregnant). I called my band doctor today and was able to get an appointment for a fill in 2 weeks! I'm really excited because I'm sooooo ready to get back in control and having restriction. I'm scared because I remember how hard it was to change my eating habits in the beginning, but I'm hoping my previous experience will help me stay vigilant.

I got 4 cc's taken out when I was pregnant and I usually don't tolerate more than 1 cc at a time well... I'm hoping I can get at least 1 cc this time (maybe 2) so I don't have to go back as often (new insurance doesn't cover anything lap-band related). I'm going to try to get back on here and read, read, read to stay motivated and refresh my band rules! It's hard for me to read a lot here because it seems like everything I read I've ready before already and I can't reply to anything because someone else always answers things I can help with before I get to them (and sometimes better than I could answer anyway)!

Wish me luck mamas! I'm gonna need it!

I'm right there with ya, except I didn't just pop out a kid. I'm trying to eat healthy as much as possible and since I know I can't succeed over the Holidays I'll wait till January 1st to buckle down and work off this last 25 lbs.
