My weight today was 241.0 pounds. I have a few pounds that I have been fluctuating between - going between 242 - 245. This is my lowest weight since, um, as far back I can remember. I weighed about 260 pounds when I got married in 1992 (I was 19 years old back then). The only time I remember being lower than that was when I got down to 244 pounds 9 years ago with Weight Watchers. Immediatly after I stopped Weight Watchers, the weight came back. Now, I have been stuck around 244 since around Thanksgiving. It seems that 244 is a stumbling block for me. As you can read from my previous post, I am getting back to being committed. I know what I supposed to do, I need to do it. I don't have good restriction right now. I'm scheduled to get another fill in a few weeks. My short-term goal is to see the 230's on the scale.

Beck, its good to hear from you! I had my fourth fill a few weeks ago, and let me tell ya, I am RESTRICTED. I am at round 9 cc's in my 11 cc band. I have to chew, chew, and chew some more. Dr. Ray was pleased with my loss, so I should be pleased too! Currently, I am 234, and I am hoping to be a little less this Friday when I weigh. Go GET YOUR FILL! You didn't do this for nothing, the band is not going to help you unless its "activated" It is an amazing thing when all the pieces come together, this thing really does work! I know you can do it! Keep me updated!

Hi Jodi!
ReplyDeleteOn April 13 I am scheduled for my 6 month (although it's been longer than 6 months) post-op appointment and I am going to ask Dr Ray to give me my 4th fill then too. At this point I am hungry every couple of hours but I'm still trying to make better choices, especially since getting back on the Band-Wagon this week. My portions are still MUCH smaller than they were pre-op but MUCH larger than when I had good restriction for a little while after my second fill. Hopefully I will get back to good restriction after this fill. I am so happy that you are doing so well! I am going to do better at keeping this blog updated - I need to be accountable.
Take care!
