Still feel like a newlywed!

May 29, 2009

I still feel GREAT about my decision to have the lap band.  Weight loss has slowed but I was expecting it.  One thing that I had some trouble with was...... getting rid of my old clothes. I don't know why I have had such trouble with that.  I must still have some fear about regaining the weight.  Finally!! About 2 weeks ago.. I went through some of my closet and dresser and bagged 2 bags of large kitchen bags FULL of clothes!!!!!!!!! I still have some to go through!! I didn't even realize I had so many clothes!! GOSH, I felt like a "weight" was lifted off my shoulders when I went through my clothes!! I think I must drive my daughter crazy because I am always asking her... does this look ok? Does this look too tight? I was so used to wearing clothes baggy.... One thing I have taken from the support groups is... wear clothes that fit!! That way, if your clothes start feeling snug... get busy and lose a few pounds!!  I don't know if I have mentioned this.. but I am a twin! I have a twin sister.  She is smaller than me... well, since my surgery she has been watching what she is eating etc. I am happy for her.. I keep telling her the difference with her vs me... she is doing not just talking!  I was scheduled for a 3rd fill June 1st but Doc said if I don't feel I need it... then cancel and give them a call... when I feel I need one. I did reschdule for June 15th or so.  Well, I really must go. I don't share a lot on here sometimes... but I do read weekly. This keeps me going... OH.. HEY.. I might be looking at changing jobs... YEAH.. I want to get a job that is less physical ( bad knees ) Keep your fingers crossed for me!!

Take care.. till next time..
