Back from my fill!
Feb 11, 2009
Let me first say... Tracey it was nice to finally met ya!Secondly.. losing weight and all the suddent having a period sucks.. but I will take it. I am on Seasonique birth control.. so I should have a period every 3 months, but for some lucky ones they will stop all together. So for the past few years I have had NO periods. Which has been awesome. Yet now this is my second period :( Yes it is still only every 3 months but without going into much detail.. I HATE having a period and havign to wear pads and not tampons. yuck.
Any way so things are once again explained by the period showing up this morning... being soo tired.. not sleeping.. being moody... but it sucks. I haven't been too tight like I was the last time I had a period though, so I was/am stressing over getting a fill. Look back in my blog for the last period I had 3 months ago! I got super tight and couldn't eat a thing.. which is common with the band. But not so much this time.. not yet any way. I have until Sunday to find out.. so we will see!
Dr. Gupta was happy with my weightloss. My last office visit was December 10th, and I have lost 15 pounds since then. Well 5 more really because their scale with my clothes on always show 5 more than mine LOL. She gave me .5 of a fill which hopefully will be a good one but not too tight. We will see how it is in a few days or better yet next week when this period thing goes away!
Also when the nurse measured my waist I had her tell me for the first time what it was. My first visit it was 50inches starting out.. and today it was 37 inches! That is 13 inches! Which is awesome! Any way so the appointment went good. She did not stick me but one time.. but she did have to "dig" around a little to get it.
JJ got his fill today.. he also got .5 and she got his on the first try! He lost 9 pounds since his last visit in January!
Its funny I had one of those moments yesterday. Well first off.. I have been feeling "fat" lately.. which could be for a lot of reasons... just not being myself. And yesterday was my day in Trey's class. And at the beginning of the year his teacher took pictures of the kids with their families on "meet the teacher night" Let me say that we look like a totally different family! Yes I take pictures every month.. I see the difference.. but seeing it in a very "unformal" picture was even more shocking.. and that was after losing 30 pounds. I will ask her if she has a copy of it still. Back in August I weighed around 234... so I definitely see the difference.
Any way it has been a fun ride... and I am looking forward to the 170's!
