A new year, and a new start to my weight loss journey. It's been over 6 weeks since my second fill (.9cc's), and I am due for another one. I made an appointment with the Cleveland Clinic to have another fill on Jan. 20th. I was told that my surgeon doesn't do the fills anymore. WTF!! Now that I've had the surgery (lapband) and have had my surgery follow-up, I guess he's dropped me as far as my lapband is concerned. I was told the lab techs do the fills now.It has been 6 months since my surgery (July 1, 2008), and I am only down 20 lbs as of today. I am not doing so well with my weight loss. I think my body is trying to hold onto all of this fat, and just won't release any of it. It gets discouraging after this long, and I am so dissappointed in myself...I have no self control. But I can't blame anyone but myself, because I don't exercise anymore, and am eating too much junk food (tostidos with con ceso cheese dip, Dove dark choc bites, WW's sponge cakes, etc.) I need to get a grip, and start all over again by sticking to the band rules, and getting my big butt back on my treadmill and do some serious walking. I know I need to do this, but have to get the motivation and energy to actually DO IT!! Maybe once I get another fill, it will help with the sugar and carb cravings I've been having lately, and I will get more energy to get back to my exercising. I really need this, and the only way to lose this weight is to get a grip on things and "Git 'er done!"
