Well the beach was fun!

I progressed through the mushie stages without a problem.

I got caught in a rip while swimming. Which was scarey, but my boyfriend and I made it out. He said I was overreacting but it was terrible. But at least I am a little leaner. Which I am sure made it easier.

Eating out was easy; on the last night I had a very tender steak, well half of it. AND IT WAS AMAZING.

Every now and then I eat a food that my LapBand™ doesn’t think I should but I have a slip of coca-a-cola and everything is good again. Who would have thought that Coke™ is my wonder drug? But it is. If something is too hard for the band Coke™ just washes it away.

There weren’t any scales in the hotel room, so I haven’t been able to weigh myself for a month, which is a good thing! The next time I get on the scales will be when I get my band filled tomorrow.

I am seeing the surgeon will be putting the liquid put into my band. As much as I never thought I would be able to say this again, I am getting hungry. When I first got the surgery it was so hard to drink a glass of water.

And even know I knew that it would get easier and that one day I could eat a whole entrée serve. I just couldn’t imagine it happening. The doctors told me that by the time I got the liquid put into the band I would need it. But it was just hard to believe.

Once I get the liquid put in, the band will start working effectively. But by the way I feel and look, it already is!

I went shopping while I was on holiday and I was actually able to buy things. Normally shopping at the beach would be painful. Because there are no larger sizes stores, but this time I was actually able to find some XL’s in the normal stores that fitted me.

I am actually now a XL in the normal work instead of a XXL in the fat world… it’s fanflippingtastic!
