Fourth fill... 5.6 cc's

I almost decided to cancel my appointment for a fill today, but I ate a pretty large lunch yesterday (although unable to eat breakfast or dinner) so I decided to keep the appointment.

My fills are done under fluoroscopy (a fancy x-ray machine that allows my doctor to see how tight the band is while I do a Barium swallow).  First she watched the Barium go through and decided I could stand a small fill. I guess I'll decide tomorrow how it feels since I can't have anything to eat for 24 hours.

The morning of my adjustments, I always do a "last supper" type breakfast.  Last time I had a chicken, egg, and cheese (no biscuit) from Bojangles.  It wasn't good at all.  So this morning, driving to work, I had such a craving for a Chick fil A chicken biscuit.  I tried really hard not to do it, but I knew today was my last chance, so temptation got the best of me.  I decided I would just eat half the biscuit (if my band would allow) and eat the chicken. 

First bite was such disappointment!  My mouth had been watering over this chicken biscuit the whole 25 minute drive, and now I can't figure out why!  After the first bite, I just decided to take the biscuit off and not bother, it wasn't worth the calories or the distinct possibility that it would be stuck and come back up.  So, this is last supper breakfast fail number 2. 

Maybe this means my taste buds have changed?  I used to love both Bojangles and Chick fil A biscuits.

    Interesting. I have heard of a few bloggers that have had their taste buds change. I haven't noticed that. How many fills have you had so far?

    I hope that my taste bud change for some things that I can't stand right now (yogurt, cottage cheese...yuck!!!!).It is so hard because I see a lot of banders eating it...Well, at least you don't have to worry about working off all the calories.

WLS Bullying

Have any of you noticed how much bullying exists among us in the WLS community?  I'm not necessarily referring to those of us in blogland--in fact, I've never felt bullied or anything other than the most support here in my little blog world.  But in other parts of the WLS community I've experienced a lot of "my surgery is better than yours" comments and a lot of size comparison.  It's something that I first experienced when I tried a local WLS meetup.  I was the only person with a lapband at the group and it was then that I decided I would never go back. Now that I'm revised, I still disagree with it.  I would NEVER put someone down because they made a different decision than me.  Even with all my trouble with the band, I would never tell someone that they were making the wrong choice.  Your body, your choice. So, what's sparked this topic of discussion, you might wonder? Well, last month I went on a trip to meet several VSG sisters from instagra...

Burger or salad?

Image
I've been craving a burger. Not just any burger. A CHAR GRILL burger. Char Grill is a local NC burger joint that used to only be in Raleigh, but now there are several other locations in Cary and Chapel Hill.  The one in Chapel Hill is my own personal hell , because it is SOOOO close to my work.  I drive by and smell the lovely scent of grilling....EVERY...SINGLE...DAY. So today I finally went and ordered a Jr. Cheeseburger, no bun. This is what I got:   A cheeseburger?  Or a salad? Anyway, I was slightly amused by how much lettuce is "on" my burger. Coincidentally, I know my taste buds have changed...because this was not as delicious as I imagined it would be.
