Set back and starting again!
Jun 02, 2009
Hi Guys,
In late April I had some issues with the band yet again. Apparently I had a piece of meat lodge into my band..it finally passed but when it did it caused some swelling...after 3 days without water I went to the ER in St. Louis. They emptied my band. For a month I had no restriction...gained about 10lbs back b/c I was totally bummed. At the first of May I got 6CC's back in my band. I have some restriction..but I have not been losing b/c I haven't been on track..So today is the day for me to start again. I need some encouragement....help me! LOL.

Still going strong
Feb 13, 2009
Well...Here I am ..on Friday night..bored..lol. I hope that changes soon. I'm still doing pretty well. I go back to Dr. Wagner on the 3rd of March for another adjustment. It is so working for me. I can't tell you how excited I am. I can't wait until May..when I'm smaller..its my birthday...summer...New clothes..I just can't wait. I bought a Wii today and just ordered the Wii Fit and board..or whatever it is. Hopefully it will motivate me a bit. I had some salad today, cup of coffee, slice of turkey and piece of cheese..I'm sipping water now. Tomorrow will be even brighter!
Love,
Stacy

Yesterday I did great! I cleaned my whole house....I had a cup of protein shake for breakfast. About 3-4 bites of cottage cheese for lunch. For supper I had a scrambled egg and a piece of cheese. Later I had a glass of tea. I am so happy that this is going better for me. My insurance pays on nothing for the fills so its all out of pocket; but worth every penny. Have a great weekend everyone.

Back on track
Feb 04, 2009
Since last year I was working in Pennsylvania I didn't have a physician in network to continue seeing and having fills. Now that I am back home in Missouri I can start over. Yesterday I had my second fill at Dr. Wagners office. Thank God I get another chance. I had almost given up hope. I am recommitted to this and will make it work for me. I will start today keeping a log on what goes in my mouth! Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Stacy

Today was a rainy and uneventful day. Since I work from home it takes a lot for me to be inspired at times. LOL. I had my couple of meetings...I didn't each hardly anything today b/c I felt full for some reason. Then this evening I walked about 1-1/2 miles....it was nice. A great way to clear the head. I enjoyed it. Tomorrow I will start my workout with a dear friend of mine. Hopefully she can help me push through. I leave for PA on tuesday and won't be back until the following saturday for work. We'll see how all this goes on the road...hopefully my hotel room will have a refrigerator...lol. So I can take some scooby snacks with me...lol. Well I will weigh in again sunday..and do another timeline photo...wish me luck!!!!
1 week out
Sep 03, 2007
SO today is my one week out from surgery and I'm doing great! I have lost 16 lbs and I feel great and I'm ready to keep going. I go back to see Dr. Wagner on Wednesday and hopefully he tells me I'm doing as great as I feel! I want to start walking more even though I have already been to the casino this week and the mall...I know I'm doing more then I should be...but I feel okay..so why not? I'm so glad I did this...can't wait for more to come!
