Getting my first fill on Thursday!!!

 I called Natalie today and was very surprised to be able to get in for a fill this Thursday @ 2:30.  Okay... no more excuses I should be able to start losing again now.   I'm really excited about this - i haven't lost hardly an ounce since a week before my surgery.  Just wondering if there is anyone else heading to Moncton on Thursday?  Maybe we could meet up? 

Sounds like my weight loss story- take heart, you will lose over the next few weeks and it may settle down (plateau****il the next fill. I have been again losing steadily for over a week now (before my 2nd fill).

Best of luck on Thursday.  you are very lucky to have gotten in so easily.  I won't be meeting you in Moncton...i'm done with moncton for a few more weeks !!!!!

awe that sucks....not that you are getting your first fill but that you are going on Thurday.  I am having my first fill on Wednesday at 2:00pm.  LIke you, I am hoping that the weight will start coming off again, I only get weighed now when I go to Moncton because I am trying to be consistent with scales and going by only one.  But I don't feel as though I have lost anymore so we shall see.  Good Luck on Thursday!!!!

Awesome that both of you are getting a fill.  it makes such a big difference in your weight loss.  I've lost 11 in 3 weeks and was stalled for about 4 weeks prior to that.  \Work that band girls !!

Oh yeah forgot to remind you of one thing.  Don't forget with a fill you have to eat differently again.  Be very very careful not to get stuck.  chew chew chew. and eat slow.  it's easy to slip back into old habits when you have no restriction...and then once you get restriction you have to remember to follow the band rules.

 I hear what you are saying about slipping back into old ways.  I felt like I was on a treadmill today.  Got home - got supper - sat down to eat in a hurry because i had a meeting at 7pm.  Tonight was the first time eating made me sick to my stomach.  I hope it is a lesson I won't soon forget.  I am wide open and things slide down pretty easily, but not easily enough to to woof it down the way I have in the past.  Once I have my fill I am hoping eating won't be quite so easy.  As I say that I am thinking "be careful what you wish for"

I, too, have my second fill on Thursday at 2:15 so I'll definately see you there Suzanne. :)

 Great Starr!  I look forward to the visit - see you then - Suzanne

I too only get weighed at the hospital. I find that is the best for me. People ask me how much I've lost and I say, not sure exactly, but over 50 lbs. I have been uping my treadmill though and my last fill I had very good restriction, Noticed the last couple of days however that I have felt hungry and unsatisfied. Might need some more protein. I do a lot of vegetarian proteins so need to keep close watch.

I never see anyone from here on my appointment days; at least not that I'm aware of! Well, good luck to all of you getting fills this week; may the restriction be with you!
