[bella5425 0]

haven't checked in a while - about 90 pounds down from my band date 4/22 and 120 pounds down from my all time highest. i am kind of bummed b/c i had major oral surgery starting in october (implant surgery) and my mouth is kind of jacked up for another 4 weeks so i've been throwing up ALOT b/c my mouth is healing before the implants go in so i'm not digesting well. my surgeon took out all the Fluid in the band yesterday b/c i ate 1 bite of a chicken nugget from wendy's (the only kind of chicken i can tolerate) and it got stuck so i'm on liquids for 48 hours and the pain in my chest is still pretty bad. i am still losing which is surprising but i will be sooo glad when my mouth is fixed, my band is full and i can get back on track. thanks for letting me vent!

How I'm doing...19 lbs away from goal, 5 lbs from my mini-goal of being where I was when I met my DH, so that makes it 6 lbs from being the lowest weight since high school.

It is so close I can almost taste it! But tomorrow I'm getting a slight unfill due to acid reflux at night. I know it's more important keep healthy than get to goal, so I will sacrifice some of the rapid weight loss for being able to sleep all night.

Keep on truckin' everyone! :biggrin:

Bella -

I just took a look at your Avatar and realized we have the same picture with old Hef! Mine was on my blog until just a few weeks ago. He's still looking the same!

nope it was Hef at Madame Tussaud's wax museum last year in Vegas. It was one month out of my band surgery and I had only lost 20 pounds. I need to update my profile pic on a side note, no vomiting or nausea for 3 days - yaaay! hope everyone has a great weekend!

Thanks Band Groupie. Got a .1 cc unfill today. Feeling much better. We'll see if that took care of the reflux. Had a barium swallow and he said there was a mild dilation due to me being too tight. I was amazed at how instantly I felt better!
