3 Week Check-up

I just got home from my check-up in Moncton...Lise and Rinette are pleased with my progress...down 15 pounds since my last weigh-in and no problems what so ever....Another week of mushies ( which really aren't that bad)...then the test begins with "real" food...Went to Value Village and purchased alot of new clothes...I love that store!!!!! Very few of my clothes fit now...which is good, I am not complaining!!!!Lise popped my staples out while we chatted ...no pain!!!!All in all a great day and looking forward to a great future of losing!!!!

Great for you Darlene ! I was a bit concerned about having the stables in for 3 weeks , I thought it would hurt , I had them removed from my back surgery 7 years ago and it hurt like the devil !! I got lots of clothes to wear once I start loosing , I have a full closet of stuff that is too small , like I'm sure many others do too. I love to shop , it will be nice to go in a normal store some day and pick out a large and it fits !! I don't understand why you have to stay on softer food longer with the band than when you have Gastric Bypass? Later Sherry

Sounds like you are doing awesome! I was also at 15 lbs gone 3 weeks out. Great job! Don't be surprised if it slows down. I hope that does NOT happen for you but wanted to let you know it did happen for me. I only lost 5-6 lbs this month so it was a bit disappointing. But, onward I go! Glad to hear things are progressing well for you and congrats on the new clothes!
