I feel great.. no more gas or bloating.. I am watching every calorie that i put in my mouth and trying to make wise food choices.. It is not so bad.. but i think i need more restriction. first fill is not until June 19th..

i have been walking a lot and hope to hit the gym next week for some serious exercise..

How are you feeling? I feel fantastic! I am so happy I did this, and I am thrilled with my results so far. My Dr. told me not to expect any weight loss until I had my first fill, which I have June 4th, so I am extremely happy to prove him wrong.:wink2:
