  1. I'm back from OCC, got my second fill. I have 7.5 cc's. I can feel restriction!!!! So excited!

  2. Getting my second fill tomorrow 12/21. Will anyone else be there?

  3. This call seems to have regained momentum. If anybody is interested in having the call next Wed. Please email me directly. I'd love to chat to fellow bandsters.
  4. Someone said to me today "It must be so sad that you don't enjoy food anymore". My response was, "It's quite opposite, I enjoy food now more than ever. I never knew what it was like to take small bites and truly enjoy and savor every single bite. Now I am really enjoying my food whereas before, my food was controlling my life and I didn't even taste what I ate."

      It's nice to be able to eat "real" food and be satisfied. My best friend always gets a bagel ab

      nd she only eats half. Before the band I could have eaten two bagels at a time. Now we share one bagel and I usually only eat half of the half for breakfast and the other half of the half for lunch.

  5. I haven't updated in a while. Not so good news I'm afraid, over the last couple of weeks, I went up 5 lbs! I had no restriction at all and frankly was unusually hungry. I got my fill yesterday, I don't know if it took yet as I'm on a liquid diet until tomorrow. I can't wait to feel some restriction!!!

      I got my fill at OCC and they put in 6.5

  6. Wuuuuuut? 171.4? Exactly 5 lbs? Maybe I'm just hungry because I'm not eating enough. Increasing my intake of food. This is exciting but also scary. Almost 10 lbs in 2 weeks? Uhm

      congrats on the weight loss but make sure you are taking in enough calories and protein.

      also, don't get disappointed ifit slows or you ain a little back. I had a six pound week and then gaine two back and stalled for a week. You body doesn't like losing it that quickly and will begin to fight it especially since you are not that heavy. Great job though!

      OOOOh, just looked at my spelling. You would never believe I was a teacher. Oh well I teach science, not typing!LOL

  7. Wondering if I'll get some relief from being hungry when I get my first fill. I am eating a third of what I used to eat and pretty hungry all the time. I am just following the instructions they gave me at OCC. Will it get better on the first fill or will I have to wait for a few fills before I get some relief?

      Hang in there. I hope it doesn't take 5 fills to feel any restriction.

      Judith, I wonder too, So widdlee, were your fills at occ?

  8. This is my first fill and you are right, I wouldn't have to spend money on meals if I stayed overnight but i would on hotel. Just trying to see if I can return the same day and it looks like from everyone's comments, plenty have done it before without a problem.
  9. That's exactly where I read this, it was a dolittle's post. I am going to fly back home and take a little bit of a risk. I am staying all doing long. I booked the first flight in and the last flight out. If worse comes to worse, I fly back. It would cost just about the same as a hotel and meals because I am so close.
  10. I read somewhere it was a good idea to test the fill for a couple of das before returning home in case there's a problem. But I will just come back the same days. Thanks girls!
  11. Trying to economize a little by not spending the night. I live in the bay area so it's an hour flight for me. Is it a terrible idea to get the fill and fly back that same day or do you think it's definetely necessary to spend the night? Please help!
  12. I lost 4.4 this week, I'm super excited!!!

  13. Awww thank you. I hope more people join next week. Thanks for the encouragement
  14. OK Adding more protein and more patience. I weighed myself again (no obsessed, promise). I'm recording my weight a day early. I weigh in Fridays but I'm going camping today. 181. +.2 It's ok, it's no like I can say forget it and go get a ridiculous amount of food like I've done every other time I've tried to loose weight. I'm going to keep on trucking.

  15. Unfortunately, I didn't get any callers on today's call, so from here on, I will only hold the call when at least 3 people have confirmed they will be attending.
