152lbs Today

154lbs

154lbs

Another 2 lbs gone. I don't get it, but I will take every one!! I'm 4lbs from my goal! I was really tight during "that time of the month" this week, so I'm feeling unsure of where I should get my next fill. I don't ever want to be too tight, that is so bad for your body and your band. I also, don't want to be eating like a horse for 4 weeks out of the month either. I will see what I feel like this week and then decide on the fill. I hope to make it to goal by December!!

156lbs

Yep, you read that right, no fill and I lost another couple of pounds. I don't get it, every time I think this is it, I have to get another fill, I lose a few more pounds. I still have one scheduled in Bismarck on November 6th and I will keep that appt unless something major happens :)

159lbs

Do I need a fill????

I hate this place of wondering if a fill is what I need. I have been stuck at 163-161lbs for a month now, I have 2 x's hit 159 only to gain those few pounds back again. A fill costs $100 so its not like I couldn't find the money but the fear that comes with a fill that isn't done under fluro. What if on this fill they puncture my port, the tubing or whatever else could go wrong!!??!! If I could just head to Mexicali and know that all will be safe I would do it in a heart beat, but that turns the cost of a fill into around $700, plus time off work and time away from the kids. I just don't know what to do. I just got over the flu which brought my weight down to 159lbs, I will see how long that lasts. :) Till then...
