7th Fill

[Guest guest]

Hello All

After 12 weeks and only a one kilo loss I was starting to feel rather

peed off about the whole band thing. I went to the doc this morning

for my 7th fill and told him I wanted to be tight tight tight and I

needed to feel this with the fill or I was starting on duromine

tomorrow as I'm sick of no weight loss.

He did tell me that I must have a strong esophogas and seem to be

pushing my food through since I can still eat huge quantities and now

I am at 9ml - he doesn't have any other patient this restricted, but

also he doesn't have any other patients who haven't lost weight

either!!! He claimed it was working as I lost another kilo this week

since my last visit, but I pointed out that I saw him at 5.30pm last

week after a day of eating and 2 bottles water, whereas this morning

I turned up totally empty of anything so he could put as much fill in

as poss and have been excessively exercising for me. Well I have

gurgled and burped my way through the morning with just an up and go

and about to test solids for lunch soon. I'm going to have a big cry

if it doesn't work this time. Have been for a couple of long

sessions at the gym in the last week and going to sign up for a 6

month membership tomorrow which doesn't exactly excite me, but if it

helps..... I have 2 goals that I must make for Aug and Dec and

determined to do this even if I have to resort to drugs to do it.

Whilst the doc keeps telling me it will happen, I am yet to believe

that and do not feel this option has been a success, except for the

fact that I haven't gained any weight.

OK that's it for me - just needed to badly have a little whinge.

Ciao
