Three years out

Oct 26, 2010

 Well this month is 3 years out from surgery for me. I did absolutely horrible over the summer. I tried doing low carb, kept trying low carb and wound up gaining a total of 28 lbs from my lowest weight. Low carb doesn't work for me because I eat too many calories.
In June when I had a large amount removed from my band things went from bad to worse with my weight. I had gotten to where I couldn't eat anything, not even healthy things. So of course I then was able to eat and didn't always pick good things. I have found I like more vegetables than I use to.
Anyway I decided to go back to Weight Watchers. I lost 2 lbs before I actually weighed in and another 3.2 for the first week. I am glad I am back with WW. I can still eat regualr food and count the points. I still have to make good choices but if I don't occasionally I can count it into my plan. 
My goal is to lose the 28 lbs I gained then after the first of the year go back and get a fill to help my portion sizes again.
218 has been my highest first thing in the mornings since I have gained. I weighed in at 218.2 at WW in the evening and now at 215 after the first week.
I know I can do this again. For Thanksgiving I am going to have a lot of fresh vegetables cut up so I can eat those and not as much of the higher calorie foods. That is my goal.
