I'm baaaack!

May 02, 2010

Thanks to OH, I just realized I had my 2 yr anniversary since my band. I am down 75 pounds and it feels great! It's not as much as the other surgeries, but it's good for me. I have no hanging skin and my face is thin but not sullen. I FEEL vey good. I haven't filled my band in a year...I've just maintained a low carb lifesyle. Not NO carb, just eating healthy fruits, veggies, and some whole grains. I stay away from processed sugar....really processed anything! I believe that's what has made the biggest difference. I've even abandoned splenda/nutrasweet in exchange for stevia.

I'm not at goal yet, but that changes a lot doesn't it? I'm squeezing into a 12, but can't wear them in pubic YET! At 180, I think 160 may be a number to shoot for. But then again, it's my clothes that I'm most concerned about, so I will have to wait. I'm in no particular hurry as maintaining is the name of the game! My 1st year was a roller coaster, but this last year has been very stable. And that's how I want to keep it!
