This is my journal towards weight loss. This is where I can come and put everything out there. I have kept my decision to myself. The only person besides my doctor that know is my husband. (I finally told my best friend too!) My kids know I had surgery, but not what kind. They are in jr. high so they are too preoccupied to ask what kind of surgery although they have been treating me great!
I've had goals, met them and made new ones. This is finally becoming a lifestyle for me. It has taken about 3 months for that to happen. I know that I can fall off the wagon if I'm not careful. Luckily the band helps me be careful.
My life is quickly becoming "Band-tastic".
(Sorry, I couldn't help myself!

I just got my unfill on Friday. It is so nice to be able to take a glass of water and drink it right down!
I went to TGI Fridays and had my customary sizzlin chicken and cheese for lunch after my adjustment. I was able to each 1/4 of my serving and was full and satisfied and not get stuck. I think Friday was the first time of no PBing for a really long time. I am looking forward to making it a week without PBing and them even more. One day at a time. So far it has been 3 days.
Dr. K wanted to start by taking out 0.5cc. I told him I was thinking 0.1cc. I love the fact that he listens to me. We started at 0.1 removed and ended up after "tuning the band" with a total of 0.25cc removed. Not much if you look at it, but I could really tell a differce. I drove 14 hours round trip today to have 0.25cc removed. Wow!
I already know that I won't make my Halloween goal, but I am ready to get on my path. Soft Calorie Syndrome really was tough for me the last month. It might take me another 6 months to lose the last little bit I have to lose, but in less than a year I have lost 115 lbs so I know better than to complain!

Yeah GF! I hope lots of Banders read this and see that sometimes it only takes a tiny unfill to change everything...and if you felt it was important enough to drive 14 hours then how could anyone else complain. Remind me of this when I have my first overfill please! You're rockin' that band girl! -BGPosted 10-19-2009 at 06:53 PM by Band_Groupie
