I was banded on 1/29/09. In my mind the weight was just going to fly off. I know! wishful thinking of a FAT GIRL!! It's been eight weeks and two fills and for once in a very long time I'm feeling good. I haven't weigh myself since one week after surgery. I lost only a measley 7lbs. I felt so horrible. I can't really say I see a big change after 26lbs off. I mean yeah some clothes are fitting better but I have a very long way to go. If I can keep this trend in two months I'll have another 25 off reaching my first goal. Soon I'll see a lot less of me!!:thumbdown:
So, I decided to weigh myself on Saturday. I took off my jeans (you know they weigh a pound alone) and stepped on the scale and to my surprise I'm down 41lbs. I never thought I would see the 260's I'm ready for 250! Go Me!! I'm encouraged to keep moving no matter how slowly the weight seem to trickle off.:confused3:
My mother n law gave me this beautiful red suit. I mean bright red!! gorgeous and expensive. Problem I couldn't fit the red suit. This was around mother's day. I made a goal for myself to fit that red suit. Well, on Sunday I wore my red suit. Since I don't have a scale (scared of the numbers) I use my "smaller sizes" as goals. I MADE THAT GOAL. I know I have the first 25 then 30 off. I'm thinking now it has to be at least 35off. Definitely 3 sizes down and feeling good!!:confused:
It's been a while since I've been here!! I'm celebrating 70lbs lost!! 36 more to go. I must say that I do get fustrated at times when I just can't get the food down! Those are the days when I'm super hungry and take that bite, swollow with out chewing well. YOU KNOW THE REST. Anyway, gotta keep going!! I'm excited. My first summer in a long time where I can actually enjoy the rides at the amusement park! Mrytle beach here I come!!
