On a mission to Re-lose
Aug 21, 2010
8/21/2010Hello "Losers"! It's been over a year since my last post. Sorry, I'm not consistent with my blogging. In Unrelated Non-Weight loss News: I am now a graduate of the University of North Texas with a BA in General Studies!! YAY...ok, now back to your regularly scheduled blog..lol Anywho, well, this whole lap band thing...It's come to a stand still because: 1. I currently don't have ensurance and can't really afford the fills. 2. According to a barium swallow x-ray, due to a few dilations with my band, it's caused my stomach to stretch in a certain spot, so i may need my band replaced. Before I can go back for a fill, I must see my surgeon so he can review the xray. It's most likely they'll have to go and look into my stomach. Can't remember what it's called, but all i know I can't get the procedure done right away (refer to #1) So with that said and done, my band hasn't seen any fluid since Februay. I haven't gain't much weight, yet I haven't lost. I've been around keeping my weight around 240lbs. NO BUENO. I've been stuck at this "Post Baby" weight for almost 2 years now!!! I wanna be back to where I was. I mean I'm pretty and beautiful and GRATEFUL that I'm not the 280-something I used to be, but I was SEXY. Just look at the pics. I was FINE!!! lol It's depressing being stuck and can't do anything with my lap band. I needed a solution to my weight problem, at least until I could get the lap band situated. That solution? HCG
If you don't know what HCG is and how it's being used for weight loss, please Google it. I won't explain. lol I heard about it before, but at the time I was sure that me and my lap band would have this excess weight off. Well, you know how that story goes. Well, a couple of weeks ago, my sister started the HCG regiment and is satisfied with the results so far. Well, last week, I jumped on the HCG bandwagon, praying and hoping it will work. I started on Tuesday, 8/18/2010 weighing in at 243. How about yesterday, Saturday the 21st, I weighed and LOST 10 LBS!!! Whoo Hoo! Couldn't believe it. HCG has me on this strict diet and drinking the amount of water I should. I think once I come off of the HCG I'll be more disciplined with my eating habits, which is something I failed to do with my lap band.
I'm happy that this HCG is working (so far). I can see my "pre baby" weight in the near future!!!
Until Next Time, Losers! (whenever that may be...I'm going to try to update more often...FOR REAL...eh, we'll see :-) )
