maclynn 0 Posted July 10, 2009 The scale finally moved downward today! After fluctuating (mostly up) for the past week and a half, I am finally down another pound and this makes me very happy. I am still feeling restriction but now the problem is getting in enough calories every days. There is no way I'm eating 1000. Starting weight 214 Surgery weight 199 Today weight 181 Total so far since surgery -18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
work_in_progress 0 Posted July 10, 2009 Finally! I'm down 2 pounds this week after having my second fill on Tuesday. The fill really made a difference in the amount of restriction I'm feeling. It's also made it more difficult for me to eat certain foods. I tried some deli turkey breast the other night and I got the most horrible pain for about two minutes. I guess I was stuck. However, thank goodness, it didn't come back up. Maybe I just didn't chew, chew, chew quite enough. I'm now down 28 pounds!! :tongue_smilie: Starting wt: 255 Surgery wt: 248 Current wt: 227 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John337 2 Posted July 10, 2009 My 7/8 adjustment of 1 cc was too tight. Went back this am and the NP took out .3cc which gave relief but still restricted. Weighed in and the weight confirmed that I wasn't eating or drinking enough as in two days I lost 4 lbs......Too much in two days.......:tongue_smilie: Now I'm drinking more and feeling restricted but not strangled......Down to 264.

I have been holding steady at the same weight for 3 weeks,bouncing around the same 2 or 3 pounds...so when I stepped on this morning I was very excited.

ThanksSherry Hi Sherry, Yes, Go into your page (click on your name), then click on Customize Profile, then, Settings, then edit Avatar, then towards the bottom it asks if you want to download from your computer, check yes and then browse your own photos wherever you have saved them (desktop, documents, my pictures, etc..)
