Second Fill

I had my second fill on Monday. I was really needing it. I was eating larger and larger portions and also more frequently. I have also been stuck between 101.5 and 102.5, for 2 whole weeks. It is very dissappointing. I can see how people could easily put on weight even with the lap band. One sure way to put weight back on is to not get your fills. You can easily spread out all the food you want through out the day. So definately not the easy road some people expect. You still need all your motivation - it is just a little help.

Anyway after the fill - he put 1.5 in, so that now I am at 3.5 total. Right after the fill I felt full well until dinner - had late dinner that night. Then I ate very little probably close to a cup. Stayed full for a long time again - that was nice. I have had problems eating in the morning though and this morning I couldn't finnish my toast and had to give it to my dog, who was most appreciative. Not sure what that is about but I had big chest pains as the food is going down. But no problems at lunch and dinner. Today I feel alot better and despite sticking to my one cup limit I can clearly see that this is not filling me up enough. So tomorrow I might fix slightly bigger meals. I just wanted to be very careful like the doctor warned me to - just to avoid being sick or having PB etc...... that (knock on wood) I still have not experienced. Thank goodness.

I can see this will definately not be my last fill . . . . . I just hope I can start losing weight again. Honestly I have stopped exercising almost completely - I am sure that had something to do with the stall in the weight loss that's for sure. As you can see by my ticker since being filled only 2 days ago I have already lost 1/2 kilo. So it's on the way down hopefully..

Thanks for everyone's comments - keep them coming ! ! ! I thought today that I may make summary type posts that will have a certain topic.... not sure how this will work but coming to you soon - I promise.
