Hey, it's been a while!



Recommended Posts

Hi all, it's been a while scince I've posted anything here. The true is I hit a plateau. I wasn't losing or gaining. I even stopped going to the gym, which was a bad decision. I ended up gaining a few pounds over the holidays. At least it wasn't 10-15 like most holidays before.

Anyway, I've had two fills since last posting. I am now at 5cc's and I finally feel like I have good restriction. It feels like the second or third week after surgery. It's great, yet I have PBed several times since my last fill this past Thurday. I'm not chewing my food properly and I am still trying to eat too much. When I feel full I still take another bit or two and of course, I start to slim or PB. Sorry - TMI.

I hope this means I'm close to my sweet spot. I hoping to see some loss this week.

Welcome back. The Holidays were tough for me too. I decided to postpone my 3rd fill in December so I could enjoy. I now got my fill and am at 3cc's. I also PB more frequently. I need to adjust my intake and re-learn how to eat some foods. I think I'm getting closer to my sweet spot too. Good luck and keep exercising....

Good to "see" you again!

The holidays weren't too bad for me except I ate a lot of stuff that I'm not used to and felt a little sick! Didn't lose at Christmas (stayed the same) but lost (1lb) at New year's (shock!) and have since kept losing again, tho slowly.

Got another fill on the 6th and def. have restriction now. I'm up to 5.5cc (10cc band). I'm eating too fast and it hurts now! Also can't really eat in the AM. Don't really want too either so a shake is fine. We'll see what Friday's WI says for sure but it looks good at this point.

Anyway.

Don't disappear like that again! Not good for you! We all need the support.

Welcome back!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
