September Fills????

[Chrisann 0]

Anyone had a fill this month? Went to the doctors today and got .2cc's bringing me to 6.4cc's in a 10cc band.

I am now down 65 pounds!!!!! My BMI 39.5!!!! :drool:

I am going in next Wednesday for another fill (4th one). I am only down about 30 pounds, but I am down several pant sizes and at least one shirt size! I am on track with exercising every day, so I am hopeful this next little fill will help me not eat quite as much in the evenings.

Amy,

Losing inches is better than losing the weight. You are probably converting fat to muscle!!! Keep it up. I don't exercise nearly as much as I used to and still flabby.!!

I wish I could have a fill....it is getting better, though. At least I am losing again. Somedays I can eat everything in sight and still be hungry and other days I can hardly eat Soup so I think I will stay away from fills for a little while longer. I am just so glad to see the scales going down!!! Finally I lost past 30 pounds....Chris--get a fill for me too, k?:tongue:Congratulations to making it to a BMI less than 40. Getting healthy is great!!!!!

I'm going in tomorrow for a slight fill. I haven't weighed myself since early August. I wanted my mind to catch up to my body because I was having some serious body image issues. I'm thinking I must have lost something, cause I bought a dress and it was a size 6. Yes, can you believe it. Granted it was one of those stretchy sweater dresses, but I feel good. My restriction is good. It could be better. Wish me well for tomorrow and I will report back with how it went.

I got my fill yesterday. He tried to put in 1cc but I was getting Water stuck so the nurse took out about .5 cc of what he added and I was able to get the Water down. So I think I have about 7.5 cc's in my 10 cc band.

Here's to good restriction! :wink2: (those are Protein shakes, of course :crying:)

I finally understand what good restriction feels like... and it is GREAT! :thumbup: I feel so much more in control of my eating and I have even lost about 5 or 6 lbs since my fill appt. :cursing:

I did start to freak out a little yesterday when I was feeling cold Water going down really slowly, but then I realized that it is that TOM and knew that a lot of others get tighter then, so that helped me calm myself down. :thumbdown:

I fill like I am going backwards. I have had two unfills however I am still loosing weight so I am not complaining. The day I started my pre-op diet I weighed 250 a week later, the day of my surgery, I weighed 240. As of yesterday getting my second unfill I weigh 166. I don't actually plan on loosing any more weight because my weight is 166 but I look like I weigh 20-30 pounds less, mainly because of my height and build.

One of these days I need to learn how to update my ticker or just remove it.

I got 1.5 on September 23 after a 2cc unfill . . . . but I am feeling way too much restriction (can't eat any solids). I am going to go for a slight unfill on 10/14. I went for many, many months with the perfect fill at sweet spot but just started having trouble. I am sure that being pregnant must have something to do with it.
