Morning everyone. Down 1.6 this week. 181.8 now. I'm happy with that considering Tue. was my B. day and I ate bad stuff more than once.

Hope everyone had a good week. Cheers to the next one.

Rebecca - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you as well......We seem to have a few birthdays for August.......Mine's the 26th.....

Well, I didn't lose any this week. I will have another fill in 1 1/2 weeks though and looking forward to it. I still feel great and am exercising regularly and fitting into a new set of old clothes (I separated out all of my clothes into sizes and I'm just going to one set at a time as the scale drops - it's fun).

I haven't been here in a couple weeks. I just had my second fill this past week on Tuesday, I missed Friday for weighing in, but today Im at 198! I finally got below 200, Wow. Havent seen that in like 14 yrs. Only bad thing is, I think my second fill is too much. I dont understand, she only put 1cc in, and I felt like I needed one. The weight loss picked up wonderfully, but I cant keep anything down. All I can do is liquid or Protein Shakes. Everyday I try a little soft food, but it feels stuck every time. I actually got some yogurt in ok yesterday, found out I can only hold 2 ounces. Weird. I guess Ill be calling them on Monday if this doesnt get a little better. Im still not complaining tho. I'm just happy to see Onederland! :thumbup:)

well until friday I had maintained the same weight. then friday morning i jumped on the scale on it showed a 3 pound loss...I cant believe it im so happy mainly for the fact that my monthly started the day before, and I usually retain a lot of Water during my monthly. So here is to a 3 pound loss and hopefully more by the end of this week. congrats to all of the mayo banditos!!!! keep up the great work:thumbup:

Only down .8 this week. 181 now.

I am still heading in the right direction, just too slow for me so I have scheduled a second fill for 9/21.

I am wondering what they will do on the second since the first was 3cc's. I notice some people have very small amounts added.

I guess if fills are done with flouroscopy, and they see you swallow, they can do larger amounts.

We'll see. I know this is just too slow for me.

I guess the bottom line is we are all still getting it done.

Good luck to everyone next week.

Oh, by the way Ann. I was standing at the deli at Giant Eagle a few days ago buying stuff for an Itial. hoagie for my husband thinking how much I would love to have one. All the sudden an image of a cat and a mouse popped in my head saying "remember diet" I laughed out loud in the store. They probably thought I was nuts.

Anyway thanks for the laugh! It helps.
