  1. Hey I just posted in your social group on falling off the wagon. Feel free to email me anytime or leave me a vistor message.

  4. Also tell me how u stayed motivated.

    Is it time to stick a fork in me? Am I done?

    OMG....U LOOK GREAT!!! I just look at your last pic. Even though u just lost 4 lbs. I can still see a different. I know its hard. That's why I'm not on this site often. I don't have anything positive to talk about and i don't want to be a complainer so thats why I haven't wrote in my blog in a while. I think u need to take a break and maybe excerise 3 or 4 times a week for now. Your body has hit a platueu like you said. Google p90x. Read about that and they will explain muscle confusion...to get u out your plateu. I brought the work out dvds and they are really intense. I just haven't done them in a while. When was the last time u had a fill? I had my last one 12 weeks ago. I am going July 20 to get another one. I have no restriction now. I gain about three lbs. So I started back today excerising. I understand about following the rules. I am tired of that myself. U have done good going by the rules this long.

    Lost 50 lbs

    Well I am very excited. I have lost a total of 50 lbs and I have 30 more to go. My ticker is moving slowly towards my goal, but I thank God its moving....and in the right direction!!:thumbup: Things have been going good. I think I have made it to my sweet spot. I had 4 fills so far. My last fill was April 13, 2009 and I have a total of 8cc in a 14 cc band. So I don't think I'm going back for another fill....maybe August I'll go. I'm not sure. I know I just don't want to be filled to tight and right now it feels perfect....on days Im stress its tight though and in the mornings. But thats normal.

  10. Thanks for the comments. Sorry it took so long to response. Since my excitement has died down with the lapband. I only check the site about once a week. Yes I have been struggling. I see others losing faster than me. But I am happy still. I have lost 50 lbs. I was banded Oct. 29, 2008. My weight was 229 now I weigh 179. Also I haven't found a protein shake that I really love so I can skip meals. But I guess u can say im doing okay. How have things been going with you?

  11. Sorry I didn't respond to your email. My computer has been giving me problems and I have been really busy. Im glad u like the pics. When I lose more weight I am going to take some more. So how have things been going with you? R u still working out? I know u said you wasn't as strict to your meals as you use to be. I haven't work out in three weeks. I started back yesterday.

  12. Once again I love reading your blogs. I am however a few days behind. But I get them via email and read them when I have time. Thats' the good thing about having email on my cell phone. I have three more to read on your blog and I'll be caught up. So even though I don't come to this site everyday doesn't mean I'm not thinking about ya!!!

  13. Thank, I get all the pics except for the ones that didn't turn out right. U know like with my eyes closes, looking goofy etc. Glad u like. I hope my husband loved them as well. U right I am going to have to change my avatar. That pic was a few years ago when i was about the size i am now. I have gained a lot more weight after taking that picture in my friends wedding. Now I am back to that size again....lol.....and hopeing to stay there.....well lose a few more pounds and then stay there.

  14. How has everything been going? Its been a while since we chatted. I see u are down 44 lbs. Congrats. You are doing good. How much do u weight now? I am 179, I am down 50 lbs.

  15. Thanks for the info. Its good to hear. I love sodas. I just don't drink as much as I use to.

  16. I use to weigh 229 on Oct 29, 2008. Now I am 179

  17. Well it is really good to hear that I can have sodas. I enjoy reading your blogs from my email. I have to write in my journal. I am so excited. Yesterday my witfit said overweight. It usually says OBSESE. So now I am no longer obese...just overweight. I lost 50 lbs. My bmi is 29.97. I am still excersing. Not as much as I want to. I workout about 3 times a week. I think I have finally found my sweet spot. I am not going to get any more fills yet. I had about 4 fills so far. I think I have 7 cc's. My band is 14 cc. I can still eat bread, rice etc. as long as I take it slow. So I am really glad about that.

  18. I been following your blogs through my email and I see you had your first PB. Even though you haven't had a fill yet. U still need to eat slow, and be careful. I feel your pain. I had experience that a few times. And drinking is a big no no right after eating. I read in one of your blogs that your doctor said you can drink sodas. Is that true. I was told that I could not drink sodas. When you get a chance tell me a little more. I don't come to this site often, but I am reading your blogs!!! Congrats on your weight loss.

  19. I'm doing okay. I haven't been tracking my food or working out the past two weeks. I weighted myself. Im 185. I'm just glad I didn't gain. I brought this new workout call Turbo Jam, by beach body. I love it. I wear a size 12. Im excited about that. I feel really good. I am just glad I haven't gave up. But this week I am going to try to get back on it hard.

  20. i love your pics! keep up the good work!

    I'm a size 12!!

    Its been a while since I posted to my blog....so I guess now is a perfect time. I am now a size 12:thumbup: I weigh 186. In the begining I haven't did any measurements so I'm not sure what my waist line was. But about 2 weeks ago it was 44 in. Now its 38 in. I brought some clothes for the first time today. My sister gave me a lot of her clothes and plus I had clothes in my closet (size 14 and 16 that use to be too little) Now they are too big so I went shopping for the first time and it felt great. I brought a couple of nice outfits. Soon Im going to have to check out some Good Will stores. I am running out of stuff to wear!:thumbup: Also I have inspired my daughter to lose weight. I'm happy about that. She is around 211. She lost 3 lbs so far and I am very proud of her. She also decided to play softball this year. She's 13 years old and very shy. So we both are doing this toghter!

    I'm a size 12!!

    Thanks for the comments. I am going to let my daughter read them. It will really make her feel good.
  23. yes it have been a while since we checked on each other. At first my weight lost was at a stand still. But that was my fault. I started back excersing and tracking my calories. At first I didnt even know I was a size 12. I was still wearing my size 16's until my sister n law gave me her size 12. So that gotten me back excited. So don't let that stress you to much, being at a stand still (It sort of stress me out) Just review what you are doing and try to change what needs to be change. Im saying it like thats easy to do. lol.....well for me it wasn't. I just keep reading about my friends sucess and that gotten my back on track. Thanks for the comments about Jasmine (my daughter) Im going to let her read them.
