Erink 0 Posted May 12, 2008 Hi Everyone, I am in Onederland! I've been between 201 and 203 for the last month, somedays seeing 200, or even 204! I thought I would never get out of the 200's. Yesterday the scale hit 198, and today 199. I know I should not weigh everyday. I have my third fill (hopefully) this Thursday. This month has been very difficult. I don't have much restriction. I even ate two pieces of pizza one night and felt nothing. I will say that besides that night, I really have noticed a huge change in the food choices I make. It is not the constant battle it once was. I know the band is really helping me to change my habits, I would however like to feel more restriction. I certainly don't want to get sick, however I do want the band to prevent me from eating certain foods. I will say this month has been a valuable learning expereince for me. I still need to asses everything I eat, plan out meals for the day, and make the right choices. This IS NOT a sure fix, only a tool. I know the reason I did not lose that much this month is becuse I could have made better choices, but I am not beating myself up, I still lost 3 lbs this month which has brought me to onederland. On another note I bought a pair of size 14 jeans yesterday! I never wore jeans because I could not get them to fit me. I tired on the 16W and they were too big, went searching for size 14 W, they had none. Went to a different store, tried on the regular size 16. Too big. Do I dare try the 14? I did and OMG they fit. My husband loves them on me and says I look so curvey. I have not been able to shop regular sizes in years. I am really motivated now!! Thanks for letting me share.
