Hi everyone in Band-land.
This is my very first blog but, I decided it may help me in my progress. I am a month and a half away from my 2nd bandiversary. I started at 311 pounds on december 18 2007. I am now sitting at an uncomfortable 242...under 70 pounds lost. So, this blog is called re-committing for a reason. When I was banded, I went about things in the wrong way. I ate around my band, I got sick, I drank high calorie drinks, and I didnt work out. Over the first 50 pounds literally fell off. But now, to get to my next mini goal of 211, I am going to have to work. There will be no more college drinking in excess for me. I have kept weight on with starbucks and booze, but no more. I know I didnt get this way with sticking to a weight-loss plan but I am committing myself to one TODAY. Today, I am going to workout. I will purchase only healthy groceries, and I will not give in to empty cravings. I know before I have had much success around the holidays so, I am hoping this will prove true again. I suggest everyone that has lost their way, and is a slow loser does the same.
These are the things I am committing to do...
Workout for over an hour four times a week
Write down EVERY calorie that I consume
EAT SLOWER (NO GETTING SICK)
Cut out high calorie drink
I will be calling my doctor for an appointment this week to see him about possible fills.
Please guys, any encouragement will help or advice!
Have a GREAT day
HEDDY
