Battling with MYSELF

Posted Today at 11:00 AM by mscheal04

I am had my surgery on 10-09-09, everything was good until I got banded on 11-11-09, it's like I keep battling with myself. I am so use to eating a lot of food & when I eat it's like I can not stop & that's not good. I havent had anything stuck as of yet, but my food does come back up & I feel sick to my stomach, which makes me not want to ever eat again. It's so hard seeing family & friends enjoying their food & me sitting there eating a kids meal. I am full but my mind is saying...

Focus and Food


I'm sick of Facebook, Mafia Wars, Farmtown, e-mail, etc. They were great for a long time because they kept me busy instead of eating. But they've lost their ability to hold my attention. All my creative energy and attention are going into my teaching. I come home and I want to do something fun, but there's nothing fun to do.

TV shows can start out interesting but eventually I lose interest. The characters...

So 1 month banded as of Thursday and down 22 pounds. Very pleased!!

I went for my first fill. They put 3cc in my 10 cc band. It wasn't painful at all. I am bruised where they put that long a$$ needle in my stomach. It was just very strange feeling afterwards. Hard to explain, but definetly felt a change. I will be on soft foods until the end of the day and then my surgeon has released me to solids!!!! YAY!!!!! It certainly helped my restriction. I was getting hungry about 2 to 2 1/2...

Frustrated - Time to Vent

Current Mood: The title says it all

Here I am 12 days post op, having made bets on how much weight I would lose by the time of my first post op doctor visit, and I'm stalled.... already!

Ok, I get that the first 5 pounds just dropped off from being on liquids for a couple of days, then the next 5-6 were probably from this very low calorie soft food diet and not being able to eat much as a result of swelling. Now, however, the swelling is down and I don't feel...

2nd Fill 13th November 2009

Posted Today at 07:09 AM by dewberry

Went for my second Fill last week Down another couple of Kilo's that makes 19.9KG I'm very happy with that I think I am nearly at my sweet spot, I'm not hungry between meals and I chew chew chew until I have nothing but mush to swallow so I can still eat anything I like .....I have'nt had any trouble so far and hopefully it will stay that way as I would still like to be able to eat all foods just in smaller portions.
Any way I hope everyone else is feeling great and as happy with the choice...
