Sunday Lazy sunday so far, doing about 6 loads of laundry,lol. I have bought at least 15 cute summer tops and had to get rid of 4 trash bags full of stuff that either doesnt fit, doesnt look good, or I that I just dont wear. I swear I have too many clothes. I cleaned out both my closets. Chris and Cory invited us over to BBQ later.   breakfast.....3 cups coffee, Splenda, sugarfree Caramel Vanilla creamer lunch.......bowl of stew, picked out the potatoes snack.......some pistachios supper......dont know yet..update: 2 glasses of Sauvignon Blanc premeal, 2 ribs, small piece of fajitas, some guacamole, 2 bites of beans, about an hour after dinner a cup of coffee and half piece of cake

March 28

Tuesday 198.5!!!   Yesterday was my 5 month anniversary and I am down 30 lbs! I am thrilled!! I have refused to compare my loss to anyone elses, I am losing at the rate I lose at! I have consistently lost about 6 lbs a month. I have so many NSV's I cant begin to list them, but I need to...just to look back at. 30 lbs has made a HUGE difference on my body, especially from the waist up.   1. My waist is SIX inches smaller. 2. Ribcage under my bra is FIVE inches smaller....36 inches and one inch smaller than my waist!! Goodbye back fat. 3. My arm at the bicep is only 12.5 inches, ! 4. From size 20W pants to size 16 and 18.....16-18 misses, not W!!!! 5. My boobs stick out farther than tummy...no longer look 5mo pregnant. 6. There is not ONE coworker, friend, family that has not noticed and commented on the weight loss (and I am still in the closet with banding) 7. First time under 200 in about 4 years. 8. My face is getting thin enough I am starting to feel really pretty again. 9. I feel 'heavy/normal' and not huge, bloated, puffy 10. My ankles never ever get edema anymore. 11. I have zero nighttime reflux anymore. 12. My DH says it is like having sex with a different woman because he can FEEl such a difference in my body. 14. My back is completely smooth. No roll above waistband or around bra. 15. Blood sugar stays very stable (thanks to no bread, lmao) 16. OFF BP medicine....was only borderline and now normal. 17. Gone from (bust,waist,hip) 48.5,43,51 to 46.5(-2),37(-6),47(-4)......big fat gut is so much more in portortion now, hell! its gone!!!...maybe that is why everyone notices I have lost weight. My shape is still big but back to being very shapely now.   I could keep going but these are the major ones....in no particular order.

154 lbs!!!!   OMG!!! I am only 9 lbs to goal! I am going to make it! Man I needed that fill, I went from 2cc to 2.7ccs. I think I may be pretty restricted. I dont like to be very tight......I prefer to be able to eat a healthy variety of foods and just have help with the portions. We will see.

Sept 30

173 lbs   Down 56 lbs. I am not sure why the loss is going so slow now... that isnt entirely true, I have only been working out once/twice a week since school started. I have lost fairly slow the whole time, which is fine, but I have barely lost anything in the past month. I really want to hit 169 by my one year band anniversary on Oct 27. (4 lbs in 4 weeks, lol) I think I will be able to reach that for a mini-goal!!!

Still holding at 155lbs

Took this last night before we went to eat. Great reminder of why I need to work on maintaining right now.   Fourth week being unfilled. It sucks, but hopefully I can get in to see my doctor and work towards restriction again. He wanted me to give it 4-6 weeks to let everything calm down and heal.

Thursday   I saw 207 on the scale this morning! I need a fill, I am able to eat too much and feeling hungry! I want to wait until 199 lbs though......In January I filled to 1.5ccs, unfilled to 1.3ccs 9 days later, and filled back to 1.5ccs two weeks later. At $100 a visit that was $300 in 3 weeks.   breakfast....JackintheBox combo, ate the sausage and egg and threw out the bread, had half the hash brown.   lunch....2 beef enchiladas, 3 bites of refried beans   snack.....some beef jerky   dinner.....meatloaf, cabbage, an apricot

Thursday   Havent been tracking food. It really seems like no matter how good or bad I eat I consistently lose about 6 lbs a month. I skipped breakfast and was starving at lunch. I was really bad at lunch....I had a Subway wrap and was only able to eat half. About 30 minutes later I was still freaking hungry and drank some water. Of course the water didnt help, so I ate the other half of the wrap. I need to keep some damn protein drinks in my mini fridge in my classroom. I had a light supper though. Some grilled zuchinni and about 4 bites of a pork chop.

April Fool's Day!

Saturday   I feel like I am sabotaging my self these past few days. I woke up starving yesterday. Fridays are such a relaxed day at school, we can wear jeans with our staff shirt. I felt really cute in my new (this particular pair size 16W) denim capris, staff polo, and Keds! I must be feeling TOO carefree. I passed Jack in the Box and thought "what the hell". Got the double sausage thing.....#17.   breakfast....2 pieces sausage, egg (did trash buns) and half hashbrown   lunch...soup, was feeling guilty   snack 1....soup didnt fill me up, OF COURSE, and there was German chocolate cake in lounge for March birthdays.....ate a piece, I had no idea cake was easy to eat.   snack 2.....handul of jellybellies one of my students gave me, okay....maybe 15 little jelly bellies   Snack 3.....small pack of animal crackers, 130 calorie pack   supper.....3 shrimp, 2 bites of fish, 2 bites of beans   snack 4......2 sugarfree mini reeses, 1 small sugarfree mint patty   I am insane. It is not even PMS. I think I feel relieved that I made first goal and just felt like "F it, I am taking a day off". I will focus on staying on track today.

Sunday   Went over to Mario and MaryLou's last night and I drank 4 glasses of Merlot. I feel completely like shit this morning. I have the worst hangover ever. I took an Actos and had a bowl of potato soup. My blood sugar is probably going to be screwed all day now. I am out of test strips and need to go to Walgreens and spend freaking $50 and get some. I must have been majorly dehydrated this morning, scale said 204 lbs. It will be back at 207 tomorrow, I need to STOP weighing everyday, lol.

162 lbs!   Finally am dropping pounds again. I think it is going to be very slow from here to goal. I have 17 more pounds to goal, and at this rate it will take me 17 weeks to lose it....4 months, and that is without anymore stalls or plateaus. Hopefully I can make it to goal by summer!
