6 month follow up today

[BillOh 13]

I have my 6 month follow up today. I'm actually looking forward to it. I know they will be happy. I'm debating as to whether or not to ask for another fill (would only be my 2nd) I may let them examine and talk to me and see what they say before I ask. My 6 month was supposed to be a couple of weeks ago, but the doctor rescheduled.

I had hoped to be below 200 for this one, but I had a hugely stressful weekend of my 50th birthday. I ended up spending my weekend getting an MRI and then my actual birthday being being a pall bearer in my Aunt's funeral which canceled the party I was looking forward to. That might my sister and her husband took me out to dinner and I ate too much, but as I was ready to leave I hear this clapping followed by a bunch of people, whom were lucky I wasn't armed, stopping at my table clapping and singing something while leaving an ice cream sundae at my. plate. At that point it might have been tacky to refuse it or not eat it. Had they asked ahead of time I might has asked for something sugar free, but had I been asked ahead of time I would have refused period. Any way, that weekend I ended up 4 pounds, of which I've only lost 3 so far.

It went great. The visit part. My appointment was for 2:30pm and I got there early, only to wait till 3:35 to get called back. I know that is an old story, but its still unacceptable If anyone on that staff calls my computer repair company, I'll remember this when I give them their bill.

Anyway, they were shocked with my results saying it looked more like bypass results than band results. I did discuss my current eating situation, she recommended that I add another .25ccs taking me to 2.5 total. Now lets see if I can get to Onederland.

OMG, you have lost 68.5lb in 6 months with less than 2.5cc in your band?!!! That just amazes me! I have 4cc in my 10cc band and feel like I am struggling (feel like I am able to still eat too much). You've done a fantastic job!! No wonder u'r docs were surprised! :rolleyes2:
