Thinking about me for a change.

Like most women, I usually put other people's needs before mine. However, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Do I feel bad about it???? HECK NO!!!! It's rather liberating.

 

Today, I was asked to have lunch with a friend which I kindly declined. Any other day, lunch would have been super nice. However, my new life consists of focusing on my bootcamp. I attended my bootcamp class today and I must say it's really growing on me. With that said, we have a week off next week. What does that mean to me???? It means I MUST and WILL go to the YMCA and occupy my time with cardio and weight training classes. Here's to a week of no bootcamp. :thumbup: Can't wait for it start again on May 4th. Whoot Whoot.

 

On another note, I weigh in on Monday 04/27/09. That will be 1 full week of me having restriction. Wish me luck, I would like to see the scale move downward for a change. hahaha

Yes, I was actually banded on 05/25/07. Had 7 fills before being unfilled last August. Received my first 1 fill after 7 month hiatus on 04/20/09. The anticipation to step on the scale Monday morning is killing me. I desperately want to see progression on the scale.

Sure thing, I'll let you now. :thumbup: It all started with a summer vacation to Hawaii last July. We went on a Catamaran on the ocean where I began to vomit for 6, count them 6 hours STRAIGHT! Uh, the pain was horrible. I didn't think I would get sea sick but boy was I COMPLETELY WRONG! Anyhow, during the course of my puking sessions, I stretched my pouch. I knew throwing up was BAD with the band so I went to the docs in August and sure enough that's what they told me. They had to unfill me completely and allow the swelling to go down before I could get another fill. Anyhow, about a month later our family was hit with a series of deaths back to back so getting a fill was not even on my mind. Had 8 deaths in the family since then. We buried my aunt yesterday so we're hoping that's the last of deaths for a while atleast. In a nutshell, there's my story. I'm sure you can imagine just how happy I was to get a fill. Pretty sad when the highlight of your life is getting a fill to help you start losing weight again. HAHA So now, I just let things roll off my back and worry about ME for a change. Is that bad????

Weighting...it's always a good thing when you put yourself back on the list. So sorry about all your losses and I'm glad you're back on the journey! Keep up the good work! -BG
