 This morning I weighed myself and was happy to see my weight down by 3.2 lbs.  I had a difficult time last night trying to get over my night eating.  Caved in and had a sugar free jello pudding.  Only 60 cals so I didn't blow it to much.  Will continue to stay away from processed carbs again today.  Dont know about walking today.  My legs and hips hurt.  Will check in later today to see how I did.

 End of day.  Tired.  Didnt sleep much last night so I'm in early.  Calorie count a little of 1000.  Walked almost 3 miles.  Just ate my night meal of 200 cals.  Still feeling hungry.  Cant lose my momentum.  Going to make it!  Still have to call to make an appointment with my doctor for my annual check.  I wont do that until I'm at least 155 lbs.  Last year at my check up I was 156.  Check back in the AM for weigh in.

 Day 2:  Down 1.8 lbs.  Mostly water weight.  Walked 3 miles yesterday.  Will walk again today.  Stayed away from processed carbs yesterday.  Will do again today.  Love the nutrition tracker!  Kept me in line for calorie intake.  Will check in later today to see how I faired.

I got on the scale today and I'm up to 155 lbs.  I have to stop gaining!  My hunger is back and as strong as ever.  How do I get over this feeling of being hungry!   It will be three years in June that I had my surgery.  I dont want to go back to what I was!   I'm going to have to start watching what I eat again.  I  have to remember what  I went thought to have the surgery.  I have to remember that the surgery was a tool to help me loose weight!  I need to rememember what it was like to be fat!  I need to remember that I dont like being fat!  Please God, help me be strong and fight to loose the weight again.  Amen.

I've been maintaining my weight.  Up and down by just a few pounds.  My weight this morning was 137.5.  We went on a 7 day cruise a couple of weeks ago and I am proud to say that I did not gain any weight!  Hurray for me!!!.  I was able to eat a little of this and a little of that, just enough to satisify my cravings.  Just because they give you a ton of food doesnt mean you have to eat it all.  If I am able to continue to maintain this weight, it is still below my original goal weight of 150 lbs.  So I will continue on and not eat so much junk food as I did before.  I have to remember what I went through to have this surgery done and I dont want to revert to previous habbits.

I have become careless lately with my diet.  My daughter and grandson were with me for 3 months and with the holidays I let my self eat everything and anything.  I've gained 7 lbs!  So this morning I've deceided to get back to eating better and staying away from the junk food that my daughter brought into the house.  People say 7 lbs isnt so bad, but if I dont stop it now it will be 7 more in a couple more months and then I'll be back to where I was before.  I just dont want to go there again.  I'll never forget what the radiologist said to me after surgery when I had to swollow the contrast to check for leaks and I became so nauseated.  She said "Just remember today and all that you went through today....".  So I am remembering and I dont want to undo everything I accomplished.  It's been a year and six months since my surgery and I want to keep the weight off!

Back from Paris and had a great time with my Sister.  Didnt gain any weight.  Managed to even lose a couple of pounds will all the walking we did.  Havent posted in a while.  I have been managing to maintain my weight between 132 and 134 lbs.  My feeling of hunger has returned and the feeling of being full has also returned so there is no more guessing when to eat and when to stop.  I still get the night time munchies and am trying to fight them off.  Sometimes I win and sometimes I give in.  I keep my snacking to low fat stuff and this seems to be working for me.  Till next time.

I had my one year check up yesterday.  and am now my ideal weight!!!  Doc. said I did not need to lose any more weight.  My offical weight at the Dr's Office is 135lbs.  Yeah!!!!!!!!!!I I made my goal weight!!!!!!!.  Now the hard part comes.  Maintaining my weight.  I just have to keep doing what I'm doing now and dont think about it.

I just came back from the pulmonologists office to get my final reading from my sleep study.  I offically came off the sleep apnea machine!!!!!!!!.  I told the doctor to have them take the machine and donate to someone who needs it.  Next week I go to see my surgeon for my one year check up.  I cant believe it's been a year since my surgery.  My weight keep bouncing back and forth between 135 and 137.  I guess I'm probably done loosing the weight.  I'm happy were I'm at;.

Less than a pound to go for my goal weight!!!
