Paid off my Band

[Vera 7]

Paid off my Band. It took me over 16 months @ 5.9 %, but it's finally paid off. :banana :banana :banana

So to Celebrate I've decided to get topped off a bit. I've been able to eat way too much. My last fill was November 11th under flouro, even though the doc said it was a textbook fill it never felt as tight as I did last year at this time.

When I was newly banded and adjusted just right I had trained myself not to eat certain things such as breads and Pasta cause I knew they would come back up on me or give me a hard time going down (get stuck). I watched everything I ate! I need to get back on track, use FitDay and exercise.

I lost that restricted feeling......bring back that.....feeling.

Good luck to those trying to get the band. I paid out of pocket, borrowed on credit, and flew to Mexico by myself.

The band is the best thing I ever did for myself...and my family!

Yahoo! That is fantastic, Vera! It must feel good to own that thing free and clear! I can't wait until I do.

That's a great reward for you, too. Hope that fill gets you to the just-right spot you are wanting!

Whew, now you can sleep better...no fear of band repossessing! What do you plan on doing w/that $$ now? I think a little vacation of fun and relaxation is called for!

Congratulations! One more debt paid off. You are definitely looking good women and maybe a tiny fill will do the trick. Your willpower is amazing.

Let me know next time you are in town.

Vera, this is the first "paid off band" thread I've ever seen... could that be a light I see at the end of this long, dark tunnel? Now you can concentrate on more important things, like how to let the band work for you.

Have I told you I adore you lately?
