Well... its coming off just very SLOWLY... I now shop at regular stores which is huge... I bought pants and a shirt at NY&Co, that was exciting. I am a size 16 now. Its been forever since I can say that. WGT 228

Came back from cruise wgt 240 (plus 2) back on diet 3 days and I am down to 236. Want to be in onederland by summer.

On my mom's birthday - I got the gift! I lost 50 pounds. That's right! I am really happy - went out to eat to celebrate - had shrimp - was overall good. Great day!  WGT 238

Today weighed in at 244 - less than 100 to goal and 45 to having a "1" in front of my weight. Yayyy.... doing well. Fell on my knee yesterday - really hurt. That put a hold on working out. But still eating Nutrisystem. Still yucky - but working!

So the weight seemed to stop coming off - December was pretty uneventful. As of yesterday, it has been 5 months since surgery. I have lost a total of 42 pounds. Not bad - not great! I wanted it to be more. But if I want more - I must do more! I went back to the doctor and he put anothe 1/2 of a cc in my band. I do feel it - but  not as much as I probably should. Oh well. I am doing Nutrisystem. It taste gross - but it has accounted for 4 of the pounds lost. It keeps me in check - I cant go for seconds because its simply one box per meal. Till next time. 

My goal is to lose 5 pounds next week and make it to the big 40 by thanksgiving. As of today I have lost 35 pounds, WGT 253 YAYYY! The gym is paying off.

Ok so it's Nov. 1, and let me just start by saying I am glad Halloween comes once a year. I ate too much! I had 5 munchkins... yep 5. Then at the party I had half of a bagel with cream cheese. Wait there's more... and then 3 chicken strips. Irony of the situation, I lost another pound. The question is will it stay off once all this crap sits on my theighs or belly? Oh well, today is a new day and so far so good! I did go to the gym, although with everything I ate I probably should have stayed another 10 hours. Losing weight is hard, I had much more fun putting it on! WGT 257

No I didn't turn thirty - but I did lose thirty pounds - I have been out of surgery for less than three months. Not bad. I have been lazy with the gym, but as of yesterday I started that again. Its hard to stay motivated when I still have so much to lose. UGH. Anyways that is great news, Thirty pounds. BTW got filled and don't really feel much unless I eat something like rice. Is it normal?

So, I am at the gym. Doing the treadmill... feeling the burn and this lady next to me invites me to the pilates class starting in 5 minutes. Not knowing anything about pilates - I go. All I knew about it was a couple info-mercials that I have seen Daisy Fuentes doing at the wee hours of my sleep-less nights. So I go. It was like I was auditioning for the  contortionist portion of the circus. Here are all these skinny women - holding body parts up with little or no effort. And then there was me - I stopped looking in the mirror because I honestly looked beyond awkward. I didn't want to leave in the middle of the class because I was scared they would talk about me (the fat not so stretchable chic who has not control of her body) so I stayed. Every position I prayed would be the last stretch. Not knowing how long the class was, I talked myself into staying. 55 minutes later - I made it! There were muscles shaking that I didn't know existed. Today 24 hours later - the pain is ridiculous - I am so sore! On a good note I am down 27 pounds - maybe some of that pilates has something to do with it. Although I don't think I will attempt that for awhile! WGT 261

Today I went for my first fill - 7 pokes later - I was told I needed to do it via x-ray! This totally sucked! I hated it! It hurt really bad - I never want to go again - on a differnt note, scale said 263 today - which means 25 pounds gone forever - The doctors scale said I lost 29 - as tempting as it is to take the larger number - I will stick to my scale. I bought myself flowers today! Actually my husband bought them - I picked them out - I deserved it, after 7 pokes, no fill, and paying 55 dollar for parking in New York City - (gotta love the big apple!) - I deserved flowers and then some!!!
