I figured I needed a fill because I can eat more at one time now than I could initially. I don't tend to eat any bread or carbs (maybe a cracker with lunch, but not bread) but a little whileago I noticed that I was able to have an entire toasted tomato sandwich and no PBing. I went for a fill today and they said that I have likely lost weight in my stomach, which means that the stomach opening is looser. I had .5cc put in today and I had soup for lunch and it wasn't a problem (which is good) so I likely needed that.
I have to say though, lately my problem has been that no matter what I eat or don't eat, the weight loss has been stalled. I'm exercising five times a week, eating well and still no losses, so I have started eating things that I have been happy not to bother with previously. And that is all about the head. It's the attitude that "if not eating any junk and eating healthy isn't getting me anywhere, why am I bothering?" So I went today and they recommended that I do that 5 day pouch test this week and see if that nudges anything. She also said that if not, she'd refer me for a metabolic rate test to see what my metabolism was as well. So I'm kind of enthusiastic again! And it was nice to feel that they believed me and wanted to help.
