It's been a while since I've posted anything or even really been on here....life has been busy and so much is going on! I just want to say that I've been reading through everyone's blogs this morning and I'm soooo proud of each and every one of you for all of your hard work and dedication! I am coming up on my 1 year mark on Sept. 18th and it's absolutely blown my mind that it has even been a year now. Life really does fly by! My year of being banded has been a good one....I've lost 50 lbs in that year (and although it's going slow) I'm very proud of that accomplishment. Before surgery the thought of losing 50 lbs was exhausting to think about. I feel sooo much better now, and have so much more confidence. I go back October 4th for an (dare I even say it) UNFIL! I'm actually too tight right now and have been since May. My husband and I are taking a cruise in October and I've decided that I want to "enjoy" my cruise. I am going to still watch what I eat and eat a healthy breakfast and lunch....but if I want dessert at dinner, I'm going to have it. lol I'm trying to get off about 10 more lbs before the cruise. Keep up the great work everyone!!!!
