Flygirl, how are you doing?

I hadn't heard from you in a while and wondered how you were feeling now (almost 3 weeks out)?

I am very good, hanging in there, getting hungrier by the day, counting the days until my fill, when do you get your first fill? I am scheduled for sept 15th! I still get on here and read but don't really have much to talk about I am having no problems and am just plugging along I have lost about 20 lbs so far. I have good restriction one day and the next I can eat what I want it is really a weird thing but I just follow the rules and I get along fine I was just reading your thread about drinking with meals I miss that also! I was a pop drinker but would only have one with my meals and I haven't had a soda in about a month and doing fine with that. How are you getting along? thanks for asking!

Hey Woman, 20 lbs is awsome!

I really need a fill. I have no appointment yet because I have to do a 2 week course in Baltimore the 12-24th (or 25th). My family is going to be w/out their mother for almost 2 weeks. I have four boys plus my DH and none of them function real well w/out me.

BUT I have to get this fill done in Mexico sometime after that. That will be a 3 day ordeal.

It's gonna be hard squeezing this in, but I'd hate to show up and weigh the same as when I was banded! It could happen! They'd be mad or disappointed in me....but that is the story of my life...not living up to expectations...especially with weight : (

I am so glad you are feeling well. Talk to you soon.

hey girl hang in there!! as long as you are feeling good and you are healthy the weight loss will come later just concentrate on healing your body!! Wow I think that is just so crazy that you will have to go all the way to Mexico for a fill also!! does that cost a lot more ...I mean the trip and all? Seems Like it would but that's just me, I live pretty much paycheck to paycheck so I just would'nt have funds for a trip to mexico just like that! Well good luck with your trip and get back and get a fill I sure need one!!
