I have not been doing everything that they said I should have and I am paying for it. I am so constipated that I look 9 months pregnant. I am lactose intollerant and I am sure that isn't helping matters. I have had pop until my last fill (Nov.4) when the nurse begged me to give it up. I have and I am ok without it. I hope that I am able to get motivated enough to start exercising tomorrow. That is my major downfall. I promise myself to start to better starting...NOW!

I used to be so strong, both physically and metally. I don't know why all of that has changed, but it has. I have started a new job working lots of O.T. Driving 45 minutes each way and sitting all day staring at a computer. I have made myself stop eating at my desk. Which is helping. I ONLY take the stairs. I sleep with my C-PAP every night. I take my thyroid meds and vitamins everyday. I try to get in at least my 60 grams of protien. I am getting about 6-8 hours sleep on average per night. I just can't make myself have energy for anything. I hear my daughter say she goes to the gym and is spending 1-2 hours there each night and loving every minute of it and I just can't get motivated. She was 290 lbs. and still doing better than me. I want to give up pop, but I find I just don't. I go in for what will probably be my last fill since I am losing my Tricare ins in the middle of March. I will pray that my fill will inspire me to lose. Goodness know that the Lap-Band isn't MAKING me lose. It is only a tool and I know that. I think that if I could get my bowels to work correctly, I would probably feel good enough to move and exercise. I am so hyperexteded in my stomach. I am miserable. The dr. has given me lactalose. I hope it helps soon. I have done very well getting in my water, so that shouldn't be the reason for the constipation. I just want to do as well as others I see here. I have the want, will I ever have the drive? Please pray for me. My short term goal is to lose 5 lbs by 2-1-09. That will put me where I was before I gained 12 for the holidays. God Bless!

I don't know why I am such a weak person!

Has anyone had their first surgery cancelled?
MSG's_SGM replied to mjg12's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did! It stunk. I was just a few days away. I had lost a ton like you have and then my jaw swelled up. I went to the dentist and he said my cap cracked and let an infection in. I was devostated. I look back now and since my weight loss has slowed so much I think, what are 6 weeks in the scheme of things. Yes, I had to wait 6 weeks. I was lucky someone cancelled or it would have been longer. You are angry now, but you will not even remember it (unless you read a thread like this lol). I wish you the best. peedy recovery. -
Miss you too. I am so proud of you only gaining one pound over the holidays. I went up 11 and now back down to only being up 7. I am so bad at this. I work too much to feel like exercising and am too lazy to make myself do it anyway. I am excited for your your son. That is wonderful. Our middle one graduates from high school this year and we are going to go home for her party. It will have been one year since going home and since my surgery. That should be enough to inspire me, but it just hasn't. Keep me posted on your great progress. I really am proud of you!!!

you are doing great. keep up the good work. -
I am stuck. Down about 49 and happy with it, but would love 103. lol I am so proud of all of your accomplishments. Is your new beau someone that knew the old you? Don't work too hard. Our second child is doing the exact same thing as you, 2 jobs, school, man, and we just moved. I hope neither of you ever regret doing that. Don't burn the candle at both ends as they say. I am glad you are back, even if just for a fleeting moment. Take care-Donita
