Doing Good!

Dec 17, 2009

Well it has been a very long time sinces I have posted on here. I am doing great down to 326lbs finally weight is starting to fall off. Got another fill and I can really fill the restriction (I'm so happy) it is about time. I know this process is slow but I thought it would go a little faster that what it has for me. Although I am happy with the weight that I have lost I can't wait to lose more. I know that the weight that I have lost I could not have done that on my own so thank you Lap Band for the help. Everyone have a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Well I don't get to post everyday like I want but I am feeling great. Still going to the gym and working out for an hour at a time. I have gotten busy school is fixing to start and football season is here for my son. I am so busy and  almost don't have time to eat. I am never hungry and I still have to make myself eat something. All in all I am great and I am loving my band.

8lbs in 1 week are we sure

Aug 14, 2008

Ok I know I have been exercising and sweating my butt off but 8 lbs in 1 week. I weighed to day because I felt a little light and I wanted to see if my first fill had helped me lose 4 more lbs well the scale was down 8 lbs and I was like really that would bring my weight loss up to 34 lbs is this denile for me or am I just losing my mind I thought. Needless to say I am happy almost at the 40 lb mark and only 2 months post op that is amazing.

Doing good just a thought.

People always want to say that weight loss is easy and that you can do it on your own. Well I have news for the speak before you go through it people weight loss is not easy and surgery for it is not either. I have lost a total of 26 lbs and people are like WOW what are you doing so I tell them what I have had and what I am having to go through and it's like you could do that own your own. Yea and I am like you can have a baby on your own also correct!!! So I am no longer going to tell people that I had surgery I am going to let them think that I am doing it all on my own just to see if that influences them to try it on their own and see how far they get. I know rude but I am just that kind of person when it comes to somethings.

First fill!!!

Aug 06, 2008

Ok so I had my first fill yesterday and It was not that bad. I was all nervous for nothing. Things went very smooth I was only stuck once but he had to do a little digging because he was on the side of my port. When he finally hit my port I felt a little pop and I was like that is it and he was like yes you are correct. When he pushed the fluid into my port I could feel it and it felt like when you drink to much water and it is in your wind pipes I almost thought I was fixing to throw up. My dr said that people usually don't feel it that I was a special case little does he know how correct he was. Well I am down another 3 lbs which is great I am down to 360 lbs and I have not weighed that in about 3 years so I am happy and can't wait to get to 350 I think I might lose my mind when I get that low and with ever weight loss I get closer to being under 300 lbs is like sitting in heaven eating ice cream with God.

Working out is working out!!!

Aug 04, 2008

Okay so last week I was very sore from my first real workout. I worked out again that Friday to relieve some of the sorness. I must say it did work for a little bit but the sorness returned. Well on Monday I worked out for hour in a half and I feel great. Like I said this working out is working out for me. I am goning on August 7 to get my first fill. I am a little worried but I know I will be fine.

VERY SORE!!!!!

Ok so I went to Golds Gym yesterday and what a work out I had. I had been going to another gym that was through the hospital where I work at and I felt like I was not getting a good workout. Well I am living proof that I was not I was going there 3 times a week and was never sore and one day at Golds Gym and I hurt like I have never exercised a day in my life. We did lower body working out my legs, butt, and inner tighs and we did core which is back and stomach. I work upper body out when I go back and do core again. I think I am going to like this because you are rotating back and forth each time you go. There is upper body and lower body and core and each time you go you do core and either upper or lowe body. We always do cardio everytime you go I was on the tread for a whole 20 minutes on top of everything else I done. I was very proud of myself because I did so good.

BIG step......Golds Gym

Jul 29, 2008

Ok story is the gym I have been going to through the hospital does not offer child care and my daugter can't exercise. So I went to Golds Gym today to check it out and needless to say I joined. I start to morrow to get my exercise program and get my body analyzed. I know the the analyse is going to say I am 50% fat (lol). I am so happy my mom actually paid for the first month for me and that was awsome for me because for a long time I was thinking she was no supportive of me getting banded. I know that sounds crazy but my mom thinks you can lose weight on your own by eating small meals and exercising. She is even thinking about joining the gym. Well that is it for today and I will let ya know how the first day goes if my finger are not to tired to type!!!!!
