And I'm really excited about it. Haven't been able to eat anything more than crunchies (e.g. chips, chex mix), chili and yogurt lately. And quite frankly I get stuck on yogurt and granola at times. My band has been completely unpredictable since I was in Indiana in August. Of course, I had two small bites of steak kabob's tonight and it went down fine. Grrr... I'm going to describe what I've been going through and see how much they want to take out. My last fill was .2, I'm thinking having .1 taken out would be good. But we'll see. Just looking for some relief. I was 168 this morning, so I've been plateaued for a month. Not losing, have my (.) now (another week early) so being this tight isn't worth it. I feel confident that I have enough will power to get to 165 less tight than I am now. So excited for the relief of being able to eat and not worry about sliming. I've slimed at least once a day for the last week.
I'll let you all know how it goes. Super excited about Chicago. Had a momentary break today when I thought that the memorial service for my friend would be this weekend. It's not happening until October. I'm glad because while I really want to be in Mass to say goodbye to him, I was also struggling with the fact that I've so been looking forward to meeting all of you.
Cannot wait to see you all!
xoxo

Jenny - I'm so sorry about your loss that you wrote about on your previous post..it sounds like your band director was a great person and had a big influence on your life...I am glad though that you are able to go this weekend..y'all are going to have a blast and I wish I could make it! Let me know if you are around the next few weeks and want to grab dinner or a drink!
ReplyDeleteWow, this really seems to be going around! I have been having similar issues... but with a more predictable trajectory: just tight, especially in the evenings, and often having sliming.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the unfill.
Hi there - I hope this unfill takes care of your unpredictable band! Would love to see Allergan or Realize do a study to figure out what causes the change in restriction (and how to fix it!).
ReplyDeleteGlad you won't have any conflict this weekend, it wouldn't be the same without you!
Are you copying me? I JUST posted the same thing last night. I just called and left a message, hoping to be seen before we travel next weekend. I can eat pretty much the same things as you...sigh.
ReplyDeleteSo glad the timing is going to work out so that you can do both! Wouldn't be the same in Chicago without you! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have some relief and find a sweet spot!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your unfill.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you'll be able to join us and still be able to memorialize your friend.
i too got .2 last fill and at my appointment tomorrow i am requesting .1 be yanked out! sure i love the weight loss, but i would like to be able to eat like a normal band person! :-)
