So Confused

Jun 27, 2009

This has been such a rough week.  I don't know how much to attribute to the band how much to chalk up to the extreme stress I am feeling right now.  I am still having heartburn, that usually starts up around 2pm and is pretty constant the rest of the evening.  Tums will ease it for about 30 minutes or so.  I am not having the choking acid reflux at night anymore, which is great.  I think I would feel better with a SMIDGE of saline taken out, but damn.........that's a very long drive for that.  I could turn to Fill Centers USA for that, but that's too damn expensive.  I still might do that.  I guess it's best to call Dr. Acosta's office and talk with them first though.  I sometimes start thinking I know best......I am the expert, because I read all of the posts on OH.  LOL 

I was so afraid to get this fill, for this very reason.  I don't want Dr. Acosta to think he can never give me a fill without it being too much.  I am just very frustrated with the whole thing and still very confused.  My weight has stalled, even with this.    My body and metabolism is just freaking crazy.  I am still at 169 even though one morning the scale did say 168.  I amnot eating much.  I am only having 2 cups of coffee instead of an entire pot of coffee, I have had mainly soup for lunch and then some soup for dinner.  I did have some chocolate candy during the week.  (Aunt Flo) That's it.  Nothing else.  Anyone else would have lost weight like crazy, not me.  LOL  I am going to get some more protein drinks today...and really push the protein without counting calories.  We'll see if that makes a difference weight wise.  

I don't think my personal stress will ease up anytime soon, unfortunately.  Soooo, just please continue with the positive thoughts and prayers.  I need to figure out how to best take care of ME and my band.
