Well, I looked at my ticker and it said that the day before my surgery I weighed 191. Today I weighed 197. I am so ashamed. I have given notice to my employer (last day is this coming Friday). My mom who has lived with us for 3 years since my dad died, has just moved to Florida. My DH and I are taking her stuff down to her on Friday night after I get out of work.

 

Tomorrow I am going to go back on my two week pre-op diet. I am hoping to do it for the following reasons:

 

1) I am out of control.

2) I need to jump start my weight loss.

3) I need to show God I can appreciate this gift he gave me.

4) I need need lose 60 lbs by the end of June for my daughter's graduation party in Michigan with family that hasn't seen me since a week after surgery....I know it might

be more like 30.

 

Reasons it might be hard:

1) traveling to Florida

2) working all day, sitting down

3) NOT MANY CARBS

4) headaches

5) inability to think

 

Ways to make it through:

1) Prayer

2) Prayer

3) Prayer

4) Thoughts of a thinner, healthier me.

5) A picture of a fat me at my desk

6) Have my food prepared ahead of time

7) The love of my family encouraging me

8) And did I mention PRAYER!!!

 

I am hoping to lose 1 lb per day. :w00t:

Hey MSG,

I wish you all the best. This journey definitely takes prayer, reflection, and focus. You didn't mention your surgery date or if you'd had any fills. Initially, I didn't lose much, but after my fourth fill...I have definitely seen a difference.

KUTGW...because you're so...worth it!

I was banded on July 3rd. I have had 4 fills. She will not put any more in, because water wouldn't go through with anymore in. Thank you for inspiring me. How much are you down and when were you banded?
