Too Tight, Not Right!

Dec 26, 2008

After my last fill, I was soooooo tight I could hardly eat.  I never knew what I could eat and what I couldn't eat.  I would get stuck with soup, but be able to eat a sandwich.  It was horrible.  I was barely eating because I couldn't take the awfulness of the experience.   I went in to the the office for my check up and had only lost 4 pounds.  4 pounds!  After all of that suffering, only 4 pounds.  I knew I was not overeating, I was barely eating at all, and apparently, that was the problem.  It turns out that overeating and undereating are equally destructive.  I was really afraid to get an unfill, but the nurse practitioner suggested it. She explained that my body was holding on to every calorie because it was afraid of not getting enough.  So I did it.  I got a small unfill.  After my mushy adjustment period, I started eating.  BOY could I eat.  It was great.  I wasn't having any problems eating, but I was afraid that I would gain weight, but low and behold, when I weighed myself, I was down 4 pounds!  It was really amazing.  Restriction is good, but too tight is just not right!
