Living At My Goal Weight!

FEELING GOOD AND EXCITED!   I was Banded on October 26th, 2009.   Yeaaa for me! I have been at my goal weight for months now. Before posting about this, I wanted to see if I could stay at this weight and I have! That's my new profile picture. I lost a total of 140 pounds and I'm a size 9 now, I'm 150" pounds now. I'm 5' 11", and when I look at myself now I smile --- soooo very happy. The mirror is a dear friend of mine, now! LOL   I worked so hard at this -- I work out almost every day, and I did most of it at home. When the weather was nice I would walk 3 to 4 miles daily. I do some kind of workout on a daily basis. I watched everything that I ate and drank.   I just saw my Doctor. whom I love -- he changed my life. I now see Dr. George Felding, a surgical god to me, every 3 to 4 months, and I was told he is so proud of how much I have lost. He asked me to be a part of his seminars to share my story of how I got to where I am at today, and to share my before-and-after pictures. I have not had a fill for over 7 months now, and in that time I still lost 30 pounds.   I have a new look now I have been called a fashionista. I shop all the time and I do not have to try on clothes. I can look at them and tell if it will fit or not. I just pick up a size 9 or a medium in a top and I'm done! What a great feeling that is.   My family and friends are so happy for me also, and they see the change in me as well. I have become very health-conscious in the way I eat, and I have become very active. Life is so much better now -- 95% of my health issues are gone. I ran in a 5K race recently and finished in fifth place (well, fifth from the end, LOL, but I DID finish the race and I did not cheat - what a great feeling). I'm, also dancing again, have music back in my life, going out and enjoying my new life.   So for all of you out there hang in there, do the hard work - it will pay off. One day you will be looking back and writing your goal story for all to see. The Lap-Band is only a tool, it takes a lot of hard work to get there and to maintain. It's a lifestyle for me now. I have to work at it every day to keep it.   When it starts to look bad or you think it's not working, hang in there. When frustration sets in, hang in there. When the weight seems to be coming off too slowly, hang in there. When you think you can not eat again or you start to think that your band is not tight enough or that it is too tight, hang in there. When your friends or family tell you that you took the easy way out (bullshit), hang in there. I have felt all of these things and more, but I hung in there!   TO ALL OF MY BANDED FRIENDS HANG IN THERE!   150 POUNDS LIGHTER, LOOK OUT WORLD HERE I COME!   FEELING GOOD AND EXCITED!

Missing Old Friends and Hate this new site set-up!!!!

Has any of the blogers out there who use to use the old lap-band-talk site see what I'm seeing?   There use to be a lot more blogers maybe around 30 to 40 a day. Now I have notice there are only 2 maybe 6 a day. I think many are feeling the same way that I am about this new set-up.. HATE IT!!!!!!!!   The old way you felt a more personal connection with a reader, now it just feel so cold and unpersonal... I miss my old friends that use to be out there. I have grown to know them. We new all about each other, there kids, weddings, travels, work, grandkids, there pets, there home towns-ect... We use to talk about our feelings and the space we where in at that moment. And those shared feelings helped me with my feelings, most of the time they where the same feelings or what I may have been going through at the moment also. I miss knowing how they are doing and how far we all have come in our amazing journeys. I got as far as I am in my journey because of all the loving support I found here. I dropped over 120 something pounds here with your support. (And of course a lot of hard work on my part) Thank you for being there for me...   There is still less then a hand full you left here, and thank you for still being here. I think you know who you are without mentioning names. THANK YOU..   This new site setup am feeling a huge disconnect with. Maybe it's just me......   If anyone els is feeling the same please let me know? So I know am not along in feeling this way.   Change is apart of life this I know, but change is to make things better not chase people away. Going from 30 or 40 a day to 2 or 6 a day. UMMMMM seams to me it's not a good change.   I MISS YOU MY OLD BANTERS! - AND MOST OF ALL I MISS THE OLD SET-UP!

Holiday Time And Feeling Good!

What a difference a year makes.   I'm able to get into that great holiday dress or that great outfit. I'm now that skinny girl in the room that I used to feel envious of. I used to be a size 10-12. I'm back to that size now - almost a size 10, smaller then a 12 but not quit a 10 yet. In the immortal words of Jackie Gleason - How sweet it is!   I am 5'11" and used to weigh 288 pounds. I dropped 121 pounds, and my doctor now calls me "skinny". I went from morbidly obese to obese, to normal, and I'm now being called skinny. How sweet it is!   I thank god and my doctor every day for my band. I am the happiest I have been in so many years. My depression about my weight, and many many medical problems, went away too. How sweet it is!   Last year this time I was 2 months into my lap-band and lost a little more then 25 pounds. I would not go to any of the holiday parties I was invited to, I would not dare to go, still so ashamed of my body and my looks.   Holiday time and feeling good!

Happy Day After Thanksgiving!

Oh my! I can't tell you how much I have missed posting on this site and doing my recipe of the day!   Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, and that the family & friends did not drive you nuts. LOL.   I haven't posted here in quite a while, so I'd like to give you an update of what's going on with me.   I made the holiday dinner for everyone and it was a huge success! We had 25 people over and I made so much food! Despite having tons of great food around, I'm proud to say I ate so little of it that I actually lost weight - I was so worried that I would gain some.   I have lost a total of 121 pounds since having the lap-band put in fourteen months ago. I must tell you, I feel SO good (and I look pretty good too!). I had not seen some of my family and friends for quite some time - and they and they were all amazed at the huge difference in me.   So now everyone is around the table, and they are toasting me for the wonderful dinner and for inviting everyone over - I then get up and walk briskly to the other side of the room to get my glass. Well, I don't know how, but I slipped on the marble floor in the kitchen, and I hit the ground. At first, I was stunned and shocked, and I had to lay there for a second. I hurt my knee and hip - not too bad though - just enough to feel it the next morning. So, in the middle of their toast, I now look up from the floor and I can see all my guests holding their glasses up with eyes and mouths wide open - they were as stunned as I was. My daughter was in the bedroom and she heard a thud - she looked down the hall and all she could see my feet! I must have looked like the Wicked Witch of the East after Dorothy had dropped her house on her! LOL.   So my husband, daughter and a few friends ran over to help me up. Well, they did help me to my feet, but it was not hard for them to pick me up. I know that it would have been a disaster if the same thing happened to me before the weight - loss. I would have been hurt a lot worse for sure - and It would have been mortifying to need a whole lot of people struggling to lift me up off the floor. This was just another unexpected benefit of my weight loss! By the way, I'm sure I would never had the strength and stamina to put this dinner together when I was 288 pounds.   So, all-in-all my Thanksgiving Dinner and day was a huge success.

Update on My 5K Run!

Yea!   I ran my first race yesterday, and I'm still alive LOL.   Well, here is how it went. I'm all psyched, I'm pumped up - did my leg stretches. It was a chilly morning, and I dressed appropriately. There had to be 1,000+ people there. A lot of them had costumes on, I did not. The start horn went off, and people started whizzing past me like the wind! The course was laid out so that you would run to the end, then turned around and come back.   As the 1,000+ people started passing me, lol, I think I had run about 1/4 mile, when the first few people started passing me on the way back! I started muttering under my breath - oh crap, how did they do that? - but I kept on going. I persevered. I walked some, ran some, and do'nt think that these thoughts did not occur to me - to sit on the side for a while, then start running back in the other direction without going to the end, or taking a taxi! But I decided I had to do this the right way, no matter how long it took me. While I was running, I got so hot, I started stripping the layers of clothing off! (Actually, I would have no problem walking this distance, because I'm a walker, not a runner).   So now, I complete the course and I'm heading back to the finish line, and my husband and a lot of other people are cheering me on and taking pictures of me as I am crossing the finish line. What a great feeling it was to actually complete this!!! So now let me tell you where I placed in the race. I came in fifth (er..., fifth from the last lol). But this was not bad at all - it was wonderful! I never thought I would be able to finish the race, and I thought that even if I did finish, I would be last! I finished the 5K course in 47 minutes and 41 seconds. So this is another thing I have done that is now off of my bucket list!   A year ago, there is no way I could have even thought of doing this. Way to go, lap-band®!:thumbup::thumbup::tongue::thumbup:

Recipe Of The Day! Easy Cooking Cheese Ravioli With Pumpkin Sauce

Think “out of the box” with this recipe…pumpkin isn’t just for pies anymore! Used in any dish, soups, stews and more, canned pumpkin adds beta carotene (vitamin A) and fiber. As the perfect thickening ingredient in creamy sauces, canned pumpkin can take the place of most higher fat ingredients (butter or cream) for a dish with less total fat, saturated fat and calories. My husband and family could not believe that the sauce was a pumpkin sauce they loved this dish and so do I.

Doctors with the "Bad-News" Face!

Well, the first anniversary of my LAP-BAND is almost here. It was on October 26, 2009 that I had the LAP-BAND put in - and what a year it has been.   So as we all know, at the end if your first year, we need to have an esophogram and blood work done, and mine is due next Thursday. I got the prescription for my blood work and took it to my physician to have my blood drawn. After a few days, when the results were in I asked the doctor for a copy of my results.   So now I'm waiting for the results in his office - which was full of patients. Within a few minutes the receptionist told me that the doctor needed to talk to me, and he called me into his office ahead of the other patients. :smile2:   When I walked into his office, I could see he had on that face that doctors have when there is something wrong. He closed the door and told me to have a seat. Now I'm nervous - thinking there is something really wrong here - I was waiting for some serious bad news like the LAP-BAND has to come out - which for me will never happen even if it kills me - at least I'll die thin! LOL:tongue_smilie:   Then he proceeded to say I was vitamin D deficient and also iron deficient. I look at him and smiled and say "is that all" LOL. So he says it is not that good. I said this is nothing - can vitamin supplements help(which honestly, I have not been taking like I should have been doing)? The answer was yes, so I'm taking vitamin pills now.   Someone posted today about a vitamin D deficiency and passed out a link and I looked at it. I learned that vitamin D deficiency is common with obesity and also common with weight loss.   Boy, doctors sure know how to scare a person! LOL:sneaky:   Now I'm looking forward to the esophogram next week and I'm sure the results will be fine. I just hope my surgeon has his usual smile on his his face when he calls me in to tell me the results in his sexy Aussie voice! I will keep you all posted. I hope you are all doing well!:smile2:

I Signed up for a 5K Run - What Have I Done?

I decided I needed a challenge in my exercising. I heard about a 5K run on October 30th, so I signed up for the event! On October 28th, I will pick up my runner's tag, number, T-shirt - and the "goodie bag" - whatever that is, LOL.   They asked for my T-shirt size, and I hesitated because I didn't know if I needed a Large or Medium (OMG - no longer need an extra-large!). So I ordered a Large just to be sure, but when I get there to pick up the items, I will see if the Large is too big for me, and I'll get a Medium. What a dilemma - LOL.   The funny thing is, I'm not a runner LOL. I am a walker - I walk three miles every day and I decided I wanted to push myself, so I signed up for the race. My husband and daughter asked me if I expected to come in first, second or third - I told them I just wanted to come in alive! The average time to run 5K is about 1/2 hour - I told my family that if they don't see me at the finish line in 1 1/2 hours - come looking for me - I'll be out there somewhere! GRIN.:thumbup:   So between now and, when I go for my walk every day, I'll step up the pace and run! Pray for me!

Going from Thinking Big to Thinking Small

Almost one year in - wow what a journey!   So many things have changed in my life that still amaze me to this day. My health is 100% better. I have stopped taking at least 8 out of 10 meds. I have so much more energy - I go out so much more, walk and exercise. I feel great about my looks, and I can shop for regular-size clothing!   When I go clothes shopping it makes me smile when I try on clothes that are too big for me! This is a mind set that will take some time to change - I've been so big for so long.   When I take public transportation and see a seat on the bus or train, my heart does not have to beat fast, realizing that I don't have to size it up to see if I can fit into it. I just sit down with room to spare! This is something else it will take time to get used to.   I have 12 more pounds to go before I reach my goal. I have not lost any weight since my last posting - I've hit another plateau that I have spoken so much about. I wanted to be at my goal weight by October 26 - the first anniversary of my LAP-BAND surgery. I'm not going to make it exactly, but, hey, a year ago I weighed 288 pounds! I know I came a long way and I will surely lose the 12 pounds soon.   I still work out daily. Now I even have a few women who ask me to help them the with their workout regimen on the weekends. We go the the pier and look at the New York skyline from the Jersey side - makes for a great background for walking and exercising. Two of the women have lost 8-10 pounds each and are so excited about it! Can you believe I'm helping others to loose weight?   So I guess it is going to take some time to get used to the new me! I'm extremely happy and excited, and I've been amazed on my one-year journey that has transformed me. Now I'm looking forward to the rest of my life as the new me.   I want to thank everyone on this site for all the wonderful support and encouragement that has been so important to me. And I know that this support is so important to all of us who are in the process of changing our lives in such a big way!   For more about my journey and to see my Recipes of the Day, please visit my blog at http://life-after-lap-band.blogspot.com/   :ohmy: :frown:

Almost a Year!

One month from today will be ONE YEAR since I had my lap band surgery! WOW.   What a difference! I have lost 116 pounds, and only 14 pounds to go to meet my goal! I am at the high end of the recommended range of weight for my height! I have not been this weight in so many years, and yes, it does feel so good!   When I look in the mirror, I see a whole new me.   I have been at my sweet spot since June, and have not had a fill for three months - and I'm still loosing weight. During those three months, I have hit a couple of plateaus, but each time, after a few weeks, the weight began to drop again. Although it was a little discouraging, I never lost sight of my goal, and I continued my daily routine of proper eating and exercising.   I went to my niece's wedding dinner a couple of weeks ago and I wore a HOT red dress - It was great to see how my family reacted to my "new" appearance! Everyone was amazed, and everyone told me how beautiful I looked - ok, yes, that made me smile inside and out - lol.   Some people have asked me if I could have the lap band removed, and maintain my weight simply by continuing to eat properly and work out. For me the answer is NO WAY. I am a FOODIE, and the weight would just go back on. And I'm also hearing from a few friends, that I look great now, and that I should not loose any more weight - that I would look too skinny! Can you believe that - Me, TOO skinny? Those words do not compute!   One more thing - I was in the supermarket the other day, and a woman came up to me and said "you have a rockin body". OMG! That's me, my new look!   Wow, almost a year - I love it!:smile::thumbup:

My Sweet Spot!

I had my first unfill yesterday. I had my last fill 10 days ago - 1/2 cc, my usual amount. But I have been sick for the past 10 days, I could not understand why. (They took out 1/2 cc yesterday).   I was not able to keep anything down those past 10 days. What I was able to eat before, I could only eat 1/2 of that - 4 raspberries, 4 bites of salmon, 3 or 4 sips of liquids, and I could not even keep that down. Once before, when I had a fill of 4 cc, I was in distress, but it did pass after 2 or 3 days. However, this time, it lasted for 10 days, with no sign of getting better. I thought this would pass also, but it did not.   During these 10 days, I lost 13 pounds. OK, this was way too much weight to loose so fast (to be honest I was so happy about loosing so much weight, so I resisted going to the doctor). Yes, I agree it was not a good idea to wait so long!   I went into the doctor's office yesterday without an appointment, and I told them what was going on. They told me I had reached my "sweet spot". It was at that moment I realized what was happening to me. That last fill had sent me over into the Sick Zone.   Everyone's sweet spot is different. You don't know you have reached it until you get thrown into a place that is uncomfortable. My only advice is not to wait as long as I did to return to the doctor.   Because I am now at my sweet spot, I will not need as many fills, and the fills will be smaller. After they took out the 1/2 cc, I was able to eat normally again, without feeling sick, and am now able again to enjoy my Recipies of the Day!   So I am at a new stage of my journey - my sweet spot. In the immortal words of Jackie Gleason, "How Sweet It Is".   So feel free to check out my blog to follow my journey, to see some tips and to see my Recipies of the Day":thumbup:   http://life-after-lap-band.blogspot.com/
