19 pounds to goal
I can't believe I'm 9 months out from lapband and I have 19 pounds to my goal weight. 140 is the bmi for my height to be a normal bmi, so I'm 14 pounds from being average weight for my height of 5'3. It's hard to believe I never hit a real plateau and never gave up. I had bad days, but always got right back on track. The last few days (last 3 days) I've had some personal issues and been in a real depression and my band is so tight I'm barely eating 500cals a day. I eat egg beaters and they lay on top of my band and I want to puke them up. I'm forcing myself to push fluids, focus on protein and fiber. I don't want to loose my health. I've come so far. And I'm so close to goal. I keep telling myself this depression and life issues is temporary and I will make it, that everyone has this feeling sometimes, and to focus on the long run and not let my good habits go. I still carry my pedometer in my pocket daily and have been forcing myself to walk out in the sunshine. 10,000 + steps a day. I start a new job in 2 weeks that really isn't 100% of what I wanted. But none the less it's a start in the right direction. I keep telling myself it's a start. And it was half of what I wanted.
