11 Weeks post-op

Mar 06, 2011

 I had my second bad fill on Monday 2/28/11.  I had lost 15 pounds since the last visit to the doctor (six weeks before)  and he was impressed.  He added 2 cc's to my band.  I got off the table and just happened to take a drink from my water bottle.  The water failed to go down.  The doctor decided to remove 1cc.  I am glad he did.  Since getting back to a regular diet I realize what restriction really is.  WOW!  I had been eating too fast and taking bites that were too big.  I really have to practice good eating habits.  I thought that I had been....but I was wrong.  I really have to work at getting the protein in everyday.  

I have been happy with my weight loss but a little surprised that it is only a pound or two a week with my healthy eating and working out 7 days a week.  I work out very hard and I have a personal trainer that I meet with every two weeks to give me new tasks.  I just want to see the results more quickly.  I suspect that I will start seeing an increase in the weight loss because my food volume capacity  has decreased considerably.  I have to learn patience....I keep telling myself that I did not put the weight on overnight...it will not go away overnight.
