bondgirl 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Ok, here it goes. Confession time! I have been banded for a year and a day. I have lost 50 pounds. Those 50 pounds were lost in the first six months of being banded. I haven't lost a pound since. Today is a new bright beginning for me. I am going to start and follow the bandster rules. The biggest two rules that I am awful about are: Drinking with my meals, and not exercising. So I pledge to all my bandster friends that today is the day I get off my a$$ and start moving, start eating right, exercising, not drinking with my meals, and stop feeling sorry for myself <disclaimer, I lost my husband due to seperation> I am going to become strong and independant and I am going to lose these 50 pounds by December 31st, 2006. EEEEEEK! Wow what a challenge it will be for me but I have called my Doc and I will get my second fill and my new bright beginning will start and develop and these pounds are going bye bye! I am determined. I will keep you all updated on my progress each week and will weight in. I will do that right now and come back with the results. I will do it nakie too! :paranoid DRUM ROLL PLEASE! 177.2 ARGH! Ive gained a pound! Not good. So 51 pounds to lose. I want to hit 126. Keep me motivated guys! I so need this!!! CHEER ME ON! :clap2: Angie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
