well I seem to have gotten past my war with the scale and I am going down again- this morning down to 239, that means I've lost 22 pounds so far... I have to take all of the credit for making good choices, counting calories, eating band portions, no grazing- so far I haven't felt like my band has been helping me much. Until today that is.... 
This morning though, I made breakfast (for myself and Dave). We had some eggs, sausage links and potates. So being a good bandster I ate my sausage and eggs (protien) first. Then I got just a few of the potatoes on my plate- smothered them in ketchup and started eating them. I think I was eating too fast and all of the sudden I could feel my food, kind of a pressure in my chest just sitting there. I thought- wow my band is finally telling me to stop!! So I did- I just trashed the rest of the food on my plate and stopped my breakfast right there. I have been full for about 4 hours! Awesome- I think that is what my stop eating signal from my band feels like!
Wahoo!!! Glad you finally got to feel what the band is supposed to do for ya! Keep it up and one food choice at a time you will get to goal. Love the pics :~)
