3 month check up/ positive thinking

Oct 04, 2009

So its been 3 months since surgery and I think Im doing pretty dog on well, while I have only lost 4 pounds in the last month I am physically stronger and I have lost inches.  I go in for my 2nd fill on Thursday so maybe that will help with the little excess hunger I feel.  I am down to 211 which I havent seen in a few years, I was just looking on my computer at pictures of me over the last 2 years and I honestly cant believe I let myself get this way but I am working to correct all the damage I have done.  I really want to start the Insanity workout program but I must admit I am a little scared and I dont know if I can do it.  I think for right now I will start up with the couch to 5k program again and then do Insanity for the last 2 months of the year, which should get me looking HOT for the New Year.  We will see what happens!!!!!

I posted this on the LapBand MB, but I wanted to add to my blog so that I wont forget!

Okay so I just got my November issue of Glamour today and they had this "finish the sentence" section and it almost made me cry, not because of what people said (even though it was really inspiring) but because of how my body image has changed and how at times I look in the mirror and wonder when my stomach will get smaller or when I can fit into those really cute size 12 skinny jeans that I just bought, when I should be saying I cant believe Im in these size 14 skinny jeans and how my stomach no longer sticks out past my breast.  I am no vowing to have the "glass half full mentality" instead of half empty.  I am going to be realistic and not say that a negative thought wont pass through my mind but when I do have a negative thought about my body, I will immediately follow it up with 2 positive thoughts. So how about you finish this statement with something positive and see what we come up with

My body is.............

unbelievably strong, after years of being abused by me it is bouncing back quite nicely.  Its the only one I have and should be treated as such.
