Chris had his second adjustment this week...Wednesday. They only added 1 cc this time saying they were concerned that they did not want him to get too much and have to "waste" one of his 4 (paid for) adjustments by having to come back and have some removed. So, he now has 4ccs total in his band. It has made a big difference in his volume of food...and in the speed of his eating too! He actually had his first "encounter" Friday at lunch. He was eating a ham sandwich and wasn't really paying attention and took too big of a bite and didn't chew it up good. Well, it got stuck! He said that was VERY painful and that he will not be making that mistake again any time soon. He said he tried drinking water to wash it through but it didn't work. He ended up going outside thinking he was going to have to make himself throw up but he said he just opened his mouth and it came out! I have notice he eats VERY slow now! We went out to dinner last night (Harbor Inn Seafood Restaurant). He ordered the broiled flounder dinner. He ate 1/2 the fish, most of his salad, 1/2 a baked potato and 1 or 2 hush puppies. The rest was packed up and we brought it home. I wish I could learn to like fish and we could split those meals...I have tried and just can't do it. I need to be brain washed or something...I can do shrimp but that is about it... We have been very hit and miss with the Wellness Center (more miss than hit). I told him that I would like to get back to going this week...just seems it is always one thing or another that comes up in the evenings and we can't go. Hopefully this week will be better! The "at home weigh-in" has Chris as 262 now...so that is a total of 59 lbs. lost for now! He started out in 48 waist jeans and just bought 42s last week so that is awesome.
