I am down 90 pounds now, so help me the scales go up and down everyday...this last 10 pounds is driving me crazy! At this point I am doing water aerobics from 10 to 11:00 4 to 5 days a week (that burns the most calories) and working out 3 days a week with weights, then on Tues and Thurs evenings Randy and I use a personal trainer for a hour session. Surely-eventually- I'll start losing again and stop this up and down on the scales every morning. I'm working so hard...boredom eating is a battle to go along with this, but I know to just be consistent and it will come off!
I went to see a plastic's guy this past week about getting my tummy tuck. Insurance will have to ok it, the nurse said give it 6 weeks to process. That seems like a long time for a yes or no.... but I'll stay on top of it and call in about 4 weeks from the appointment date. I'm excited about this, my hanging belly skin is a real problem to deal with. Clothes fit great until I sit down and it all spreads out... Jeans are tight in the belly and way too loose in the legs... I just need to get my body in better portion in other words. Sure hope I don't have to pay cash for this....
I can not stop reminding myself how very blessed I am that The Lord has given me this blessing of good health. I almost feel guilty when talking to my LAM friends that I am doing so very well. This gastric bypass surgery was the tool I needed and it is so hard to get insurance to pay for.... God has seen me through it all.
