Getting Back On Track!!!!!

[getting in shape 1]

I haven't been on these boards for quite some time. Right now I would just like to vent and get myself back on track. I was banded in 4/09. I HAD dropped 90 lbs. Right now I have gained back 10 lbs. due to my own carelessness and also with some health problems that my husband has. I have my next drs. appt in august and can't wait to get a fill. My problem is that I love any kind of cheese and eat lots of it and also my ice cream at night. I have stopped eating the ice cream and have cut back on the cheeses. My main meal is dinner. A lot of my meals are frozen like Stouffer's mac and cheese also I like Groton's Butterfly shrimp. I do make chicken thighs and cutlets and sometimes pork chops. I think I don't have enough of a variety and also I make some bad choices. I started doing my treadmill and the air walker which I really like. In one year I had 2 knee replacements and 1 hip. Now I can walk anywhere and all day long and have now pain whatsoever. I still need to lose about 50 lbs. and I know that I can do that.

So I just want to say thank you for letting me get things off my chest and I now feel that I am going to start making better food choices and exercising.

Good for you for recognizing the problem, and now fixing it! So many times, we put ourselves into denial and chalk it up to life...but really, we control our own lives!

One healthy decision at a time....you'll get there!!
