Trying to keep the portions small & the food choices wise. Thankful for DH help since he is now the chief cook around here. Peace.

Much has happened since I last posted. Got down to 188, was extremely tight, has an unfill, put on about 15 pounds, but NOW, TODAY, I'm back on the Band Wagon. Retired from teaching in June and LOVE it! A trip to the Smokies in July, a cruise in August and another cruise scheduled for later this year. I will NOT put back on any more weight. I WILL start going in the right direction. Blessed beyond measure, I've come too far to turn back now.

Closing in on Onederland
Jul 13, 2009
OK, here I am almost to the middle of July. One thing I've learned in the last 15 months: Goal setting is fine, but simply sticking with the Plan ( getting in the protein, water & exercise + eating small healthy portions) is the way to go for me. The scale says 200.6 and that's after a week's vacation in Miami, home of Cuban bread and flan. I'm keeping on keeping on and do fully expect to make it to Onederland before school starts- August 13. Size 18 is getting too big and my wedding band & engagement ring are sliding off so, I now am wearing my mother's wedding ring as a ring guard (it just now fits on my ring finger). I'm so blessed!!! The Journey continues...

Hard to believe that tomorrow marks the Seven Month mile marker on my weight loss journey with the Band. This week before Thanksgiving, I've actually seen the scale going downward and am very excited and motivated to do more & eat less! I have repented of my Pumpkin Spice lattes and now partake of Skinny Cinnamon Dolce lattes. My next step to recovery is making them at home and saving the money! I am about two pounds from the half way mark to my goal and steadily, if slowly, moving toward Onderland. Almost 50 pounds in seven months??!!! Yahoo!!! Much to be thankful for, including my new OH friends I've made this year. Here's to happy Holidays and reaching a promised land- Onederland!!!

I am so blessed! I can't close this out without saying how much I enjoy and appreciate all the support and info that I receive here at OH. Being a part of this network has made my load a lot lighter and my journey a lot brighter. Peace.
