For The First Time Ever Since Surgery 17 Mos Ago I Felt Restriction

[donna12 742]

This morning I ate Cereal, then for lunch I was out and about and grabbed a small chili from Wendy's and brought it home and sitting there at the table I was half way thru it and thought to myself, hm, I'm full and getting ready to hiccup which is my soft stop and I did hiccup and I stopped eating and put it away for later. For the first time in 17 mos post op I felt restriction, this was less than a cup of food, really felt like the band was working. Also yesterday it happened, thought I was getting stuck but I was full before I could finish my lunch, just couldn't finish it. Weight loss has been at a stand still for 3 months, maybe this is a start to a new beginning for me, the green zone.

Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I doubt I eat very much but plan on enjoying myself, a bite here and a bite there. I'm just thankful I'm healthier and alive this year. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Congrats Donna! And happy Thanksgiving to you as well.

And good choice on the Wendy's chili for an "on the go" option!

Hey Donna I am like you and won't be eating much. I probably won't even sit down for a meal. Just snack here and there during the day. Have a great day!!
