Sorry I haven't been around. Life got really busy and I have done nothing but work and sleep lately. I am a full fledged member of the "No Fun" Club. Things seem to be slowing down a bit, so I can get back to paying attention to blogging and other support/aftercare types of things.
During this crazy time, I decided to get a fill and try to drop some weight for an upcoming family wedding in July. Some of you are probably wondering why I needed a fill. I am up a few pounds from last year's mono. They took out some fluid and I never got it back. So, time to drop about 20 pounds in order to look good in all my clothes. The fill went well and I obeyed my surgeon's post fill rules.
I don't eat much right now. I am glad I have been so busy because I have passed through the phase where I would be looking for food. When you are working through your lunch, you don't have time to be naughty. I did plan. I brought protein bars with me so there would be no temptation to go and buy milkshakes or fast food. I am not hungry. Small portions work just fine for me and I have been able to get in my water. By the way, I tried that new water enhancer called MIO. It is good! The berry/pomergranite is my favorite, but the tropical punch is good too.
The good news: I am down 10 pounds in a month! WAHOO! I should be able to make my goal by the July Wedding.
The point: I have had my band for 12 years. It hasn't stopped working and I know that as long as I follow the rules, I will ALWAYS be successful!
Hi Cynthia. I used to see you at the Jason's deli dinners in Dallas. I have had my band for 6 years (5/5/05) via Dr. Sewell in Southlake and have lost and kept off 95 pounds. I don't get on DFW Bandsters anymore but have been wondering how Charlie and Virginia are.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Can't wait to see you next month. :)
ReplyDeleteFaith,
ReplyDeleteHope to see you soon!
Lynn,
They are ok. Charlie has had some issues, but Virginia is good!
Sorry for the late post!
Cynthia
