a year ago today...


Recommended Posts

I had my first unfill a year ago today. Since then, I have spent the year trying to get to a good restriction level for me and trying to learn not to depend on the band so much. The first six months proved very difficult for me, at one point I gained 14 pounds in three weeks with an unfill!!! On top of that, I've had major port problems. I decided that until I could get to OCC to have the port fixed, I'd stop getting fills so for the past five months I have been doing my best, trying to make good choices, just living my life really. This time (after learning my lesson the hard way with that earlier 14 pound gain) I have only fluctuated up and down the same five pounds the entire time.

I consider this a huge success. I know that when I gave up on diets in the past, I could (and did) gain up to 50 pounds back in five months. At the end of the day, with all the ups and downs, I am still 26 pounds less today than I was a year ago today!!! I didn't realize that until I was adjusting my ticker right now. I had been feeling like this year was pretty much a write-off so that makes me so happy! If I can do that with all the problems I've had, imagine what I can do now that my port is fixed and I can get fills again? I'm so excited!
