1 year anniversary today!

Apr 16, 2009

Well, it's been 1 year ago today that I changed the direction of my life. I had lapband surgery done, and it has changed my life for the better. My highest weight was 287 (on my scale at home), and I am down to 209 (today). Almost  eighty pounds gone! I was down to 204, but have gained and lost the same 5 pounds a couple of times these last few months. I have done a lot of emotional eating, and I know that I need to get back on the bandwagon. I thought today would be that day, but I guess my head isn't ready to give up the bad stuff right now.

I had the flu last week (upchucking all night), and managed to put my back out. So the last week, I have been unable to exercise, other than the walking up and down the stairs I do at work, which is painful.  For 2 weeks prior to that I was finishing a class on-line that had a deadline to finish, and had to take the TAP exam, which I am happy to say that I passed. I finished my viasinc course, finally, and now my class is complete! Only took me 2-1/2 years to do it, but it is done. Just waiting for my certificate now. Yippee!!!

Now that I feel ready to exercise, my back isn't cooperating. I hope that it will get  better soon, so I can get back in the swing of things.
