Since peeps have asked if I can feel a difference after getting my first fill on the lap band I have to say yes. Food gets caught very easily if I do not chew (chew chew chew and chew some more) it into a toothpaste type consistency and it gives chest pressure. I think this is where "Productive Burping" talk comes from on the forums that I read. I just have to remember to chew, eat slow and all should be well in lap band land!
Hubby took my pic today and took my measurements as well. See below.
DS came home from college to see me ~ that's what he said!! He took a few things back with him but I think he just wanted to see his loving mama!
Here's the pic (if you click it gets larger ~ not that I need to be larger and why my teeth have a couple of shiny spots I have no clue ~ in real life they aren't like that!):
Here's my measurements:
waist 39 1/2 (no change in waist)
hips 46 (minus 2 inches)
chest 45 3/4 (down from 47)
wrist 6 5/8 (was 7 3/8)
forearm 11 (minus 1 1/4)
thigh 24 (minus 1 inch)
calf 17 1/2 (minus 1 1/2 inches)
ankle 8 3/4 (down from 9 1/2)
upper arm 15 1/2 (the size of a normal persons thigh! geez....no change!)
neck 15 (down 1/2 inch)
so gut and upper arms need lots of work!! well all over needs lots of work but I would have liked to have seen some change in the gut and arms....

you look adorable! what a cute outfit.
from your last post - do you think you could come clean out my house? we've been there 2 yrs and i don't think the kids have gotten rid of anything - not even clothes that no longer fit!
Thanks for the compliment mama! ;-) As for cleaning out houses ~ well let's just say I'm doing it out of necessity so I don't have to pack stuff?! We've been here 5 years and have boxes of stuff that hasn't been used in 5 years!
