I was back at the gym tonight and after the cardio and weight training session, I weighed in and I am now, drum roll please, 227.4. I have lost 26 lbs since my surgery.

 

Now 25 lbs has always been my limit. Once I hit that number in the past, my plateau was of a permenant nature. After about 3 weeks of not losing an ounce, I would give up and go back to my old ways, which not only helped me gain back every pound, but gave me a bonus - I always added a few extra lbs. How special! :thumbup:

 

Well, Monday started my 8th week. I lost 14lbs before the surgery and 26lbs since. I am so proud of myself.

 

My first fill was supposed to be tomorrow, but I postponed it until Sept. 2nd. This is the 3rd time I had an appointment for a fill. I kept the first 2 and was told I did not need the fill yet. And since nothing has changed in my eating habits; I 'm still not hungry between meals and I am losing weight, I just called and rescheduled it.

 

I really feel so much better and people are telling me all the time how much better and healthier I look.

 

I hope everyone has a great evening and you are all loving the band as much as I am.:wink2:

I was reading your post and thinking that its almost as if the surgery and the mental/emotional changes created by that have put you in a green zone all by itself!

I am so happy for you!

So proud of you GF!! This is how we work our band Awhauh, Awhauh we like it!!

I had to have another Un-fill yesterday. I was able to tighten my muscles around my band due to my own inner stress level. Not a GOOD thing. I need to learn how to relax. Quick...

You are doing so very well and make me remember how much fun I should be having with a 110 pound weight loss. The best thing that happened to me was yesterday while shopping for a new dress. Another women was trying on the same dress and she said to me and the dressing attendant why didn't she look as great in the dress as I DID!!! Yes, I bought the sexy little black dress a size 10 from J Crew. OMG

Here is to the JOY of Lap Band SUCCESS. I love every minute.

Best wishes imaluckydog

PS My NP told me we yesterday, people who blog or journal are 10% to 20% more likely to have better SUCCESS with their LB journey than someone who does not. Cool huh?
