I HAVE RESTRICTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well for now anyways...

I went to the wonderful Dr. Mark yesterday to get my 3rd fill and he gave me a BIG 3rd fill of 1.2cc's so now I am at 6.7cc's!!!! I took 3 sips of my Protein shake this morning and I couldn't drink anymore. Thank the Lord maybe this band is going to do its job now. I feel like its been all me up until now! I have had Great Willpower and discipline with my eating and exercise.

The nurse that checked me in yesterday at the doctors office said that I am down 74lbs and Ive lost 42% of my excess body weight! WOW! awesome! LOL when I was leaving Dr. Mark said Next time we see you you'll be in a size 14! (I had told him that I was down to an 18 pants from a 24).

I just want to thank all of you for being there daily for me and each other I think that's what keeps us all going! we are one big online family LOL! Love you guys!

Well, now you know your weight loss is going to stop bc you have statistically lost what "they" say we will lose. Only 40 some percent of our excess weight!!! PUHLEASE! We are not stopping missy! Let us break the statistical records and be above average (we already are)!

Congratulations! That's so exciting! I wish my will power was as amazing as yours! I can't wait to get restriction. 3rd fill is in 1 1/2 weeks!

THE DASH! said...

Isn't it the BEST feeling!! Like you, I have waited forever for this feeling. I keep finding half drunk cups of coffee on my desk and going tsk.. Oh, that was me! lol I can't seem to get it all down now and BOY do I feel it if I eat too fast.
You're an amazing girl to have got by so long on willpower alone. So proud of you, chicklett!
I'm almost at the halfway mark too. Let's both race to the finish line... but not in competition lol. I would lose!

WTG Mary!! You are doing so awesome!! I have some 14's here in the closet if you want them :).

I am hoping to go up to 3.0cc Wednesday. I'm at 2.5cc now and 3.5cc was overfilled...hopefully 3cc will be the sweet spot :). I need to get these last stubborn 10-15 pounds off.

Yayyyyyyyyyyy! I'm so excited for you, third fill, yay! You've done really well so far though.... even if it was all you. I'm going for my 2nd fill next week and I'm hoping I'll be at 5 or 6 cc by the time I leave there (4cc now) we'll see. Yay for you!!! I can't wait to be in an 18!

That is awesome! Congrats on your restriction. I go to the doctor on 9/1 for my first fill and cannot wait! I'm ready to start feeling something from this $15,000 surgery.
