Well I am 6 months out from my Lap Band Surgery. I started out at 286 lbs. I am now down to 226lbs. I have lost 60lbs. This juorney has been a little hard for me at times but I am not regretting it a bit. I have not been able to have to many fills because my system is too sensative to the fills . I have a hard time keeping anything down then I am back to have some taken out again. But overall I am doing well with the diet. I eat what I want to some point. I just make sure it is small portions and healthy. I had to up my protein levels some more becasue I was loosing my hair. Now that I have increased my levels things are better. The hardest part for me is being able to drink while eating. This has been so hard.
One of the biggest things for me during this weight loss is exercise. I started out with a personal trainer and worked with him for 4 months. Now that I know the plan I am on my own in the gym. This has really helped me to strenghten muscle and maintain my body. I would recommend anyone doing this it really helps to boost your weight loss and burn the fat.
Well this is my journey so far. I will try and update when I can.
Happy journey Everyone Tiffany
BMI starting at 45.6 now at 36.4 YEAH!!!!!!!
BMI now at 34.2 May 6 2009
I am continuing my weight loss. I have a few platueas now and then but overall I am still losing my weight.
I have had a few rough days where I have weird cravings for sweets and things. I try my hardest to keep busy so I don't want to eat all the bad stuff. Now and again I will treat myself to a small snack of chocolate or something, but that is few and far between. Overall I am doing really well with my weight loss. My husband is also doing really well.
