Well I have made some changes to my plan. I am now more active!!! I work out with either weights, cardio, or both every day. I am really feeling changes on my body with that. I am also eating much better. I eat more beans and veggies. I am back on my protein shakes! And I am eating watermelon!!! The good news is that the weight is now coming back off again!!! Slowly but surely!!! I am back down to 206, but keep in mind that I have only been active in behaving for the last week. Needless to say, I am happier. Still ashamed of myself, but at least I am progressing.
I will make you guys proud of me yet!!!

Well, where has the time flown. It has been almost a month since my last posting. I have to be honest, one of the main reasons I haven't posted is because I haven't been the best bandster over the last few months. In fact, I will confess now to say that my weight has gone up to a whopping 210 lbs. How ashamed am I? I really have no reasoning behind it other than I got lazy. I have decided to post because I have come to my senses and I now have goals. My husband is taking me to Chicago before returning to the fall semester at school. So, I have 4-5 weeks to get back into onederland. I want to apologize to those of you who are out there who have been admiring my progress. It was a lack in judgment. I will confess to say that I hate the summer. I can't handle the heat very well. And it is a downfall for me, because I also can't stand to sweat. Although I will as long as I know I can shower immediately after working out. Needless to say, my husband has graciously bought me a treadmill, an eliptical, and a stationary bike for the house. So now I have no excuses. I have also vowed to not buy any more clothes until I have gotten back to down to onederland. Once back in onederland, I will make another vow about when I can buy more clothes.
Again, I offer my most profound apologies for being lazy and weak.
until the next time....

I have been so busy with work and completely worn down by the end of the day that I haven't been logging online as much as I used to. I had gained as much as 10 lbs, but I have reformatted my eating plan and 3-4 lbs of it has come off since. Plus with the increased activity at work and so on, I am more on the go. I have finally cleared away all of the crap around my eliptical and stationary bike, so I am hoping to incorporate both of those pieces into my daily activity - although right now I have a cold and I am not doing much!
Work is doing great. I have been analyzing my goals and dreams as far as work goes. I am pretty decided, with the help of my husband, to become a nurse anesthetist. My husband has been re-instated back into K-State (our favorite university). So that makes my week. Although, he has also recently been promoted at work so he will only be taking 1-2 classes for the time being to work towards his goals so that he can maintain his new work obligations.

Wow.. I am off to a poor start this summer already, with posting anyway. Let's see, I haven't lost any weight, but I am working towards improving my eating and I am getting more active. I am even going to be working full time as a nurse, so just that will increase the activity in my life.
I have also hopped on my bike and worked out a bit this morning. I need to get better at it, i.e. need a longer time.
My husband is also wanting to eat better and that has helped me in the past. So, I think all in all, my weight will start falling off before long. We work out together which is very nice and also helpful. As many of you know, weightloss is easier with a partner...
Until next time...

Well I have put on about 6 lbs but I am also not exercising and I am going through finals. I am just about done though. I only have one more final today then I am done for 3 months!!!! YAY!!! I am up for a well deserved break!!!
Otherwise... life is ok. Just celebrated my 4th wedding anniversary on Monday, May 14th. We are still going to celebrate that because it is hard to give it a good recognition when I am cramming for finals. This weekend however, is our time.
The next Monday we are going to court regarding my step-son. That has been LONG coming. I can't wait to get that all over with. I am starting to get nervous about what is going to be brought up about me.
I have 2 part time jobs this summer. Ironically I will still have time to enjoy ME time. So, I can't wait. The first week off is basically all about me, with the exception of court. I am really looking forward to getting my house in order and cleaned! A delayed spring cleaning. I might also play some Sims. But I am also looking forward to having time to cook better! Hopefully I will get a system down including both cooking and exercise!
Well I guess that is about it. My husband is going to start classes in 2 weeks to finish his degree. And we are getting a second car - YAY, no more taxi service!

Well, weight wise there really isn't much of a change although I am convinced that it is because I am not exercising. That is a situation that won't change for at lest the next 2 weeks, so I am not going to stress over it. In fact, I am not even going to bother weighing myself and stressing myself out about it. I just don't need the additional stress on myself. I already beat myself up too much.
We are down in Wichita this weekend. There have been tons of tornadoes in KS the last few days so I am leary to travel back home. But we will be fine. I just know that I will be happy to be back home!
I will likely not post until after my finals are over. Then I can hopefully post radical changes in my weight because I will have time to exercise!
Until then....

This will be a short post but I wanted to post that on Friday (4/27/07) I got a small unfill of .25 ccs. I am now back to 2.75ccs. I finally had to admit that I was overfilled. And now that I have been unfilled, I am feeling MUCH better. So I just have to step up my action a bit. I'm actually happy about the unfill, because now I can actually eat real foods...healthy foods! Before the unfill, I was eating anything - good or bad - that I could get down. Sadly, it was more bad than good! I ate part of a hamburger patty yesterday for the first time in ages! So, that was great for me! I definitely couldn't eat meat before the unfill. My protein source was simply from protein shakes. Anyway... let's see where this takes me!
Until next time...

This will be a short post. I am still on the borderline of onederland. One day I am in onederland, and the next I am at like 200.4 or so. I am not stressing that much about it right now because I am more focused on getting my projects and papers done for school. Plus finals are coming up a bit too quickly! When the summer kicks in, I will become very active with activities and outdoorsy things that the weight will fall right off. I'm sure of it. In fact, I am pondering getting a bit of an unfill, because I can't seem to eat much of anything solid without throwing up at least a bit. I can't even eat veggies without getting stuck. I don't like that. I would much rather be able to eat a bit and be allowed to make healthier decisions on my own. Although, I haven't totally decided yet about the unfill, I may just wait another couple of weeks for the band to loosen up from the last fill.
Let's see, other news...
I have accepted a student nurse tech position within the New Life Center/Peds department at the hospital I wanted to work at. It is an extremely part time position, but perfect for my school schedule! I am excited about starting there, which isn't until summer! Other than that... my husband is home sick today with what I am getting over with. It will be different to work on my homework with him around all day! Hehe... not that it is bad, just different. I'm actually happy about him being home, because I see so little of him these days with my school schedule!
Oh well... until the next time......
