Week 21 Post-Op....My First Real Bad Week...

Posted 10-15-2009 at 10:24 PM by LauraKey
Updated 10-15-2009 at 10:27 PM by LauraKey

Ever since last week when I had to get an unfill due to being stuck, I have been struggling!

What's surprising me is that I have never had a bad week since I was banded. (May 21, 2009)

I went from 5.9cc's to 4.9cc's and I am hungry! I have not been eating the best this week and I have not been able to exercise due to work. I am a Realtor and I have about five buyers looking at homes before the tax credit ends. My days have been non-stop. 6am-9pm most days.

Week 22 Post-Op....Back in the Saddle

Finally! Yesterday I went back to my doctor for a refill. Two weeks of 4.9cc's is not working for me! I did not go back to 5.9cc's because I felt that was just too tight. I was not able to get in my water daily and I would throw up in my sleep sometimes. So I am at 5.6cc's currently.

Next month is my six months follow up so if I think 5.6cc's is just not enough then I will go to 5.8cc's.

For the past week and a half I have been sick. Terrible

People, people, people.....TODAY IS A FANTASTIC DAY!

Even though it's snowing outside and more bad weather is coming to Denver, I feel like the sun is shining directly on me!

Today when I stepped on the scale the number 200 was looking right at me! What is it about that number? When you are going up the scale it's a number of doom and gloom, however when you are coming down on the scale it looks like a gold coin!

I could not have done this without my

Hello Beloveds! Today I went in for my six months check up. My doctor said I am a superstar! I am above average for weight loss and all my bloodwork is right on target. I am healthy and most of all happy!

Today I went to get gas from a station I visit weekly. When I got to the window the lady looked real hard at me and said...you are Laura, Right? I said yes, you know me. She said NO I DID NOT! You look fantastic. For the last couple of weeks it's been cold here so
