It's awesome. I've been wanting to document my bumpy journey of weight loss, but just didn't know where to start or even where to go.
I was banded on March 12th, and so far I have lost 17 pounds. Most of it was lost during the liquid stage and once I went on solids, that's it...neither the scale nor the inches have dropped. I have to wait until May 16th for my first fill and until then I promised myself I would do everything in my power to lose some more wieght. Right now I am concentrating on going from 245 to 240. I will set my goals at 5 pound increments as opposed to 100lbs like I always do, and always fail. I have purchased an elliptical and have done cardo 3 times a week. I have also gone to the gym and donecircuit training 2 a week. However, my weight has not moved. There is no way that uscle has taken over the fat yet because there hasn't been enough time...So, i joined weight watchers to control the amount of food I eat (there is no way I can count calories, I just suck at it). With weight watchers I count my points and stop at the max. I've been doing this for the past 3 days. I'm going to give it my all! I will lose this damn weight!
Today I ws not very good. I didn't eat enough. I only had 2 meals:breakfast and dinner. For breakfast I had milk, 2 slices of turkey, 1 slice of ww rye bread. For dinner I had 2 shrimp, some broccoli and carrots. Now I made myself a turkey sandwich with lettuce and had a protein shake. If I get hungry later I'll have some strawberries. I walked for about 20 minutes at the mall, I vaccuumed the house, and washed the floor...Tomorrow I need to get at least 20 minutes of cardio.
TaTa...Until tomorrow...
