7lbs to goal. my drs. goal. i would like to lose 30 more. we'll see. k. so i was stagnant for like almost 3 months. last week t-th i went to curves and drank 'skinny' mochas. ok, not as good, but im down 4lbs. gee, imagine, less calories and excercising, who knew? when i was little, i my family used to call me 'flaca' because... well, i was. i was all elbows and knees. an older brother saw me yesterday... flaca he called me. lol. took me back a whole lot of years. i smiled. i look in the mirror and still see a fat girl. though i seem to move funny now. im surprised when i can cross my legs. i mean really cross them. not just the ankles. lol. i stole a pair of size 12 levi jeans from a niece. they were her fat jeans, but they are becoming my too big jeans. now what? what do i do once the weight starts to just be gone. its like i wait for it to strike at me from behind or something. its gonna come back. i know its not. its just weird.

8 months post band. 53lbs down. nsv: i have gone from a size 18 in jeans to:... get this: ta da!!!! Levis stretch SIZE 10 jeans. did you read that right? size 10. yeah, i know they are stretch, but i'll take all the slop i can. ha. in regular non stretch jeans, im a 12. thats ok. i'll take that too! of all the things i miss most is my ass. i've always had a rather pretty arse. round. bubble butt some would say. yeah, its sorta flat now. i know going to the gym will lift it some, so im not worried about it.

my scale is always the proverbial 3lb difference from the scale at home, but i ALWAYS take my scales weight. always always always :clap2: . i will take any loss and run with it.

ok. heres the plan, k? i should of done this from the beginning. start to tell people: im so hungry, but im cutting back. every once in a while, just throw in a " geez im hungry". that way, when you start to really drop the lbs, they will already be condtioned to your weight loss. i should of done that. two neices and a close girlfriend know ive been banded. none of my family knows. i have found out that having 'someone' know is good. i really really try not to bore my few confidants, but its hard. like i have to share the daily/weekly successes im going through. good luck to you! -r

OK. NOT WIERD. I GUESS THIS JUST TELLS ME IM ON THE RIGHT TRACK. I WAS 234 PRE-BAND AND A SIZE 18. FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE THAT I HAVE BEEN AN 18. ARG. HATED IT. IM NOW AT 190. IM IN SIZE 14 JEANS. I CAN WEAR A BELT OVER MY BLOUSY BLOUSES. NOW PEOPLE ARE NOTICING THE DIFFERENCE IN ME. MY SISTER DOESNT LIKE IT. 'why am i losing weight?' 'what am i on?' I WALK BETTER. I LOOK BETTER IN CLOTHES. I FEEL WIERD. LIKE I DONT DESERVE TO BE THINNER. IS THAT FUNNY OR WHAT? I WAS BANDED 3/24/2006 AND IM DOWN 44LBS. MY NIECES THAT KNOW IVE HAD SURGERY KEEP TELLING ME TO GET RID OF MY 'FAT' CLOTHES. IM EMOTIONALLY ATTACHED TO THEM. I CAN TELL YOU HOW OLD SO MANY OF MY CLOTHES ARE. HOW I WAS FEELING WHEN I BOUGHT THEM, YADA X 3. IM A LITTLE EMOTIONAL. ON THE VERGE OF TEARS TODAY. DONT GET ME WRONG, I LOVE BEING 44LBS LIGHTER. MY DR.S GOAL FOR ME IS TO BE 170LBS. IM WITHIN 20LBS. I HAVE NOT EXCERCISED AT ALL. I START CURVES TONIGHT, SO I KNOW I WILL NOW START TO LOSE INCHES AT A FASTER RATE. GET TONED. BUILD A LITTLE MUSCLE. (THEN I CAN SAY THAT IM LOSING CUZ IM EXCERCISING).

i weigh my self naked. every morning. after going to the bathroom. with no watch. rings. necklace. lol. i dont really car that the dr's scale is different by 2-3lbs. i just go by mine and we are always the same difference. i dont get too frustrated when i see no change for a week or so, then all of a sudden... wham. im down another 2-3-4lbs.
