Unfilled yesterday
Well, in anticipation of my unfillI I started to food journal a week ago. I have been using my fitmess pal and is is so far successful. I have lost 2 pounds. I am determined not to gain weight while I am on hiatus from my band.
The doctor was more reassuring yesterday and I said that I should be able to fill again in a month and he would start with a 4 cc fill. He is a new doctor as I have moved to central Fl from the south. My records from my old doctor say that there was 6.25 cc in my band but he could only pull out 5. I think that is a pretty significant difference. I wish he had been that positive a week ago and I wouldn't have gone through the hell of the past 7 days.
I leave for the Pacific NW in a few weeks and after 18 phone calls finally found a WLS there who will take my case.
Feeling better know the end is in sight and I will not have to loose my band.
