Hello everybody!!
Mar 24, 2008
Just updating! I have been doing ok with my weightloss and feeling good about myself. I now take more pics since I have lost some weight. I haven't gotten a fill in over 2 months and that was by choice but I'm pretty sure I will be getting one when I go back to the doctor in April. I think my band still may be a little tight because most days I still have a hard time eating but it's so crazy I have no problem eating junk food. Oh well, I will update again in April.
Peace!!

A New Year!!

My Christmas was not the best due to my kids being sick on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day they go sick one after the other so I spent those days washing sheets and blankets ALL DAY!! This was the first time that I didn't get sick because usually I catch whatever they have so I'm glad I have been taking my vitamins. I went to the doctor on Friday Jan 5th and I was a little tight so the doctor took some out I went from 3.2 to 3.0 and it is a little better. I plan to do things a lot different in 2008.
Good Health!!!

I went to the doctor about 2 weeks ago and my doctor gave me some great news. I no longer have to take medication for High Blood Pressure and Diabetes!! I was so very happy when he told me no more meds. He told me he thinks it was all due to me being over weight. I got a fill a few weeks ago I went from 3.1 to 3.2 cc's and I think it may be a little too tight because I notice that I'm having a hard time eating most foods and I have thrown up several times. I guess I will see when I go back in Jan.
Today, me and the kids went shopping to buy their teachers gifts and to buy my mom and husband Christmas gifts.By the way I let my 18 yr old son drive me around (lol). We had so much fun shopping then we took a little break for lunch and after lunch we shopped some more. I'm almost done just a few more gifts then I will be done. That's all for now!

I got my 6th fill yesterday
Nov 29, 2007
Yesterday, I went to the doctors office and I met with my Nutritionist. She really gave me a lot of helpful information. She gave me several helpful websites so if anybody is interested in getting them just let me know. My Nutritionist told me I needed to start back taking my Multivitamins twice a day, Calcium Plus Vitamin D twice a day and Prevacid once a day for the next few days. I also found out that I was not eating enough calories or protein and so now I have to try and keep track of all the calories and protein I eat just to make sure I'm getting enough. She told me if I can get all my calories and protein in I could lose more weight. She showed me my before picture and I could actually tell that I have lost weight my face is smaller and my waist is smaller. I'm happy with my results. I had another fill today a very small one I only went from 3.1 cc to 3.2 cc's. I lost 7 lbs in the last 3 weeks so I'm happy. Now, I need to start back exercising. I need to learn to go workout on my own instead of depending on others to go with me because everytime I start working out I do good for a few weeks but then if they miss going to the gym I end up missing too and never go back. I'm going to do better and hope to lose more weight before I see my doctor again. Well, that's all I have to say for now. Peace!!
Another fill
Oct 30, 2007
I went to the doctor yesterday and the doctor said I was doing well but he wanted to do a small adjustment so I went from 2.9cc - 3.1cc. I only lost 3 lbs in 3 weeks and I know it's due to not eating right as well as no exercise. I'm on a liquid diet for 2 days and puree foods for 2 days.
I have started working out with my husband now and I feel great when I workout. I have a good friend that is very special to me who was the one that motivated me to start exercising. Thanks to my friend I'm feeling great about myself
.
The next thing I'm working on is eating better. My family loves to eat unhealthy and I try to eat right but a lot of times it's hard being around them when they eat like that. I guess since they don't have a weight problem they think they should eat how they want. I try to tell them I was skinny when I was younger too but look at me now. I don't eat much food when I eat it's just that I'm not always making healthy choices.
Well, I just worked out with my son and I'm feeling great and I plan to worout again tonight. Now I'm going to go take a
so peace out!!!!!!!

Another update
Oct 09, 2007
Today, I had my 5th adjustment. It wasn't much I only went from 2.8cc to 2.9 cc. My doctor was happy with my weightloss. Today, I felt really sick all of a sudden. I felt really light headed and nauseated as well as feeling like I was going to faint. I checked my BP but it was fine so I decided to check my blood sugar and it was fine so I didn't understand why I was feeling so sick. I went to go check the carbon monoxide monitor and the batteries were dead. I then cut the air off and opened the windows just in case. I ended up calling my husband to take me to my appt because I was too scared to drive. I actully felt better once I got out the house and went to get my fill. I also went and bought a battery and everything turned out ok so I don't know why I got sick.

I haven't updated in a while. I am doing well. I have had 4 fills in the last 2 1/2 months. I am up to 2.8 cc's. I have lost about 30 lbs. I love my band! I haven't had a Coke since May, 07 I just can't believe that.
I have a date for surgery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 11, 2007
I finally got my date yesterday and it will be on May 23, 2007 That was so quick. Dawn called yesterday and said when do you want to have your surgery and I said ASAP so I had to start my liquid diet yesterday and I'm starving like crazy. I have been eating cream of chicken as well as mushroom, jello, and popsicles. Well, please keep me in prayer.
I'm on my way to great health!
