Week 9 & 1st fill

Jul 30, 2010

Hard to believe that I am 9 weeks post op today. It has gone by sooo fast. I had my first fill on Wed. I got 4 cc's, which I was told was the biggest one I would ever get. She said I did have some restriction b/c the first fills are normally 5-6cc's. I do feel better....satisfied with less food & not as hungry between meals.
I am still very happy with the choice I made to get banded.

We went on vacation last week & I didnt gain or lose which is a first for me, I normally gain at least 5 lb. 
I wasn't due to have a fill until 8/9, but it was just getting to be too much....so that is why I went in for the fill.

I am working out M-F, anywhere from 30-45 min a day. I am going to do my best to bump it up to 45 each day M-F this coming week & start the C25K if at all possible. I was going to start today, but left the workout sheet at home & couldn't remember what to do.

Over all I feel like I am doing well. I know this is a rather slow process, but it is progress!! Which is awesome to me. = )
I have my next appt on 9/8 for my next fill. My goal is to be down 15 lb by that time. I know I can do it. I will do it. 

I'm going to keep reaching high & dreaming big. I will reach my goal! I will do it!
