"Scolded" and another 2 pounds!

Dec 13, 2009

So I went to see Dr. M last week and he was actually a little concerned...I had lost 11 pounds according to their scale since the last time I was there, which was only 4 or 5 weeks prior and he told me that is an unexpected amount of weight loss with the band and he is wondering if maybe it's too tight. I was like NNNNOOOOOOO!!!! (lol) hahahaha...I explained to him that not only did the recent minor weight gain I had give me a new resolve to step it up, but that I've been really going at it at the gym and really trying to push myself and my body and that it has paid off...I assured him that I CAN eat and that I'm not starving, and that as long as I follow the "rules" of chewing, eating slow, and small bites, I can eat anything I want.

So he said we would see how things go and I am supposed to see him as soon as I get back from my trip...we leave THURSDAY! I have SO much to do and no time to do it! Obviously with all the weight loss he wouldn't give me a fill but he wouldn't have anyway because of my trip.

I am very nervous about how I'm going to eat over there. Everything will be out of whack and I've been doing SO well lately and I feel comfortable with my routine foods...I don't want to eat stuff I'm not used to and I get the "stuck" thing a bit more now because I've become complacent with eating and not being as careful as I once was...And no gym for two weeks either??? That's gonna be really tough! Guess it's one more "test" to pass!


I went on two first dates this week too! The first one was better than the second but we'll see if anything transpires from it...I am even contemplating speed dating!!! Because the last date I went on was way too long! This way I can meet lots of people in a short period of time and quite frankly for me it's all about that initial chemistry...and if it ain't there, well...usually it just doesn't happen for me...So we'll see...maybe speed dating is in my future!

As 2009 draws to a close all I can say is it's been an AWESOME year!!! I have gotten my life back! I love exercising and being healthy and I can wear normal clothes just like everyone else, and participate in activities just like everyone else and it feels SO good! I feel like I have control of my life, not the other way around...It's absolutely FABULOUS!!!!
