First Day/2nd Fill

Today was my first day back to school. We had an institute day so no students yet. Sophomores start tomorrow because they are coming to a new school. All students will be back on Wednesday.

A lot of people have noticed I've lost weight. It was really nice to hear. I called the doctor last Friday about having another fill. They called today and had a cancellation so I was able to get in after I picked up my son from daycare.

My son did great his first day back to daycare. I was worried he wouldn't tell her that he had to go potty. He did have a little accident when he first got there, but was fine the rest of the day. Although, when I walked up the daycare lady was worried because he was just stung by a bee under his right eye. She was hoping he wasn't allergic. Luckily he's not. I've been watching him and there are no other symptoms other than the swollen bump under the eye.

My second fill went good. I got another .8 cc's. I'm hoping the weight coming off is more consistently now.

Progress is Slow

I've finally lost two pounds. It's been a couple of weeks since I've seen any movement on the scale other than up. It's so frustrating to know you're making all these changes to your lifestyle, but the scale isn't really showing it. Well at least I haven't gained a bunch back.

I think I'm going to call for another fill. I've been hungry a lot and want to snack. I've been trying really hard not to, or to pick healthier alternatives. I don't want to get back into the snacking routine though.

School starts next week and I'm hoping that once I'm on a more rigid schedule it will help move things along.



For anyone out there having the snacking problem like me, try Potato Bakes. You can have 17 chips for about 110 calories. They taste really good too. I've only had the salt and pepper ones, but I'm hoping to find the other flavors somewhere in town. My grocery store I go to only has those and BBQ. It's located in the healthy/organic isle at our grocery store. I looked online and they also come in Parmesan & Roasted Garlic or Ranch flavors.

Not Much Going on......at all

So nothing really new to report other than I haven't made any changes in weight in a long time. I think I'm going to call the doc to set up another fill appointment. I've noticed that I'm eating more than I should and I still feel hungry after I eat.

School's starting soon and I need to get ready for that, but trying to enjoy the last days of summer vacation. My son needs to get on a schedule soon or my daycare provider is not going to be very happy with us when he doesn't take naps and helps himself to the refrigerator whenever he wants.

Looking forward to going to the State Fair. Hoping I can find some food I can eat. I know there will be plenty I want, but shouldn't eat....mmmm....cheese curds.
