Ok - I need some help. I have been at 206 and 207 every single day for the last two weeks....WTF??? the first 20 dropped quickly and effortlessly. I begin solid food and this is what happens. I am still being selective about my food choices. I am watching portion control. I am not eating sweets. I am intaking about 108 ounces of water per day. I have not received by first fill. I am hoping that his will make a difference. I told my hubby last night that I really wanted eating to be an effort again. I can easily eat my food portion and my mind has to take over to let me know that I am done. It takes will power.
Am I in what you guys call "Bandster Hell"???? Please assure me that I will lose more weight.
Tracy

Welcome to Bandster Hell :P
ReplyDeleteThis is it, the bright side is it will end, you need some fill, once they can adjust your band you will get through it :o) It can take a bit for the doctors to get you there, but hold on.
Hi Tracy!!
ReplyDeleteI think that you just started Following me today! I hope you don't mind, but I like to welcome my new Follower's in my blog, and provide links to their blogs for other Bandster's to check out!
I just noticed that you live in Auburn, CA! I used to live just down the hill from you, but we recently (Dec 24th) moved up to Carson City, NV!!
I do have family still in the valley below you, so maybe when I am down that way, we can meet up for a visit and exchange experiences? Just a thought.
As for your question about Bandster Hell. YES!!! Sounds like you are in it! I was in it for quite some time. I don't think I got out of it until I had at least 4-6 Fills!! Not exaggerating one bit! LOL
But I would like to "Welcome you to the Sisterhood/Brotherhood of the Bandster's".
Hi Tracy,
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Debi sent me over! I am newly banded as well, I hope it gets better for you soon!
Glad to follow you on your journey!

Hi Tracy
ReplyDeleteI am right there with you except I have had my first fill and am eagerly awaiting my second - funny how the first 20 seem to slide right off but the next few are painstakingly hard!
Look forward to following your blog :)

Welcome to bandster hell, indeed! You will feel a big difference when you get a fill. Just keep making good food choices.
ReplyDeleteHey Tracy!
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain!! I've been there too!! Hang tight until your first fill. I know it feels like ages until the 28th, but it will be here soon enough. Have you tried working out? I dont have too much advice since we're not too far off schedule wise, but hang in there!! :)
