Final Adjustment.....
Ok, that's exactly where I am.....and this cartoon even looks like me (how sad is that!) Friday I made the trek over to Charlottesville to see my doctor and make another lap band adjustment.
I had talked with my sister who had the procedure done about 2 years ago and compared notes with her as to what she can eat without problems and realized that I was able to eat much more.
Not any more. I really think I am where I'm supposed to be now. I can eat a half cup and be totally satisfied for four hours or more. I'm having trouble getting all my liquids in as you can't eat and drink at the same time.
I'm eating much slower and stopping much sooner than ever before. I have had several episodes of choking which is not pleasant at all.
I really think I'm hard headed. If I know what my limits are I'll stay with them rather than try to push the limit and be physically ill. I've lost four pound since Friday....it's really nice to see the scale going in the right direction now.
My mom and sister are coming tomorrow and Thursday we go on a road trip to Alabama. I've already got my meals planned and even got some meals frozen for when we get back. I finally think I'm on the right track now. Thank you God!
