I'm back....
Jun 14, 2009
Well its been awhile since I've been on here, I've had a lot going on. I'm down to 184, haven't been this weight in years and this hasn't been easy, I guess I expected more. And although the weight hasn't been falling off the inches have, I've gone from a size 24 to a 14, and the feeling is awesome. At our last support meeting it was explained to me that your body goes through a redistribution period and it seems that once I heard that, the weight is now starting to come off. I have received another fill of .75 and had to have .50 of it taken out, everything I ate came back up, i had heartburn, wasn't sleeping, everytime I got sick I had a metal taste in my mouth. Dr Smith took .50 out and I'm no longer getting sick, I guess you could say I've reached my sweet spot. I have always weighed and measured everything, I use a small salad plate to eat from, it would probably be a saucer but that dip where the cup sits drives me nuts. I'm now able to get out and do yardwork, this time a year ago, I couldn't even be outside for more than an hour as long as it was not real hot due to my chf and copd, this surgery has been a lifesaver. Some of the women I work with have just had the surgery or is in the process of getting it done, and they ask all the time during their preparations for the surgery to ask me if I would do it again and the answer is always the same, YES, YES, YES!
