I am considering a Revision.  Today I weight 273.  I went in for the seminar on Saturday.  This is what my Dr. recomends.  This has been so hard.  I am commited to my 6 months however.  I know this is going to take lots of prayer.  Sometimes life is so tough.

So the unfill was tough, I ended up gaining back up to 272.  That is where I am now however I got a fill a few weeks ago and I have good restriction again.  I am really struggling right now.  I have this whole brain cyst and Chiari issue going on so until I see the doctor next week I am a basket case.  My nerves are shot and I am so upset with myself.  The only thing going good is I am using my eliptical and building up my minutes.  It does feel good.  I just wish I could lose this 30 lbs I've gained plus another 50.  I can't believe I am back at wanting to lose 80 lbs.  This is so depressing.

ok, so in the middle of Dec.  I had to have .5cc taken out, I woke up and couldn't get anything but hot coffee to go down.  So now I can eat and all through christmas.  UHG!  I have gained up to 265.  I'm so bumed.  Anyhow, I bought a wii personal trainer and started today.  I am moving and I am motivated.  I am doing no sugar, carbonated drinks and some kinda exercise.  This is my goal for the week.  I've been having something like an apple for breakfast, salad and chicken at lunch, and whatever everybody else eats at supper.  So far I can feel some restriction.  It makes me slow down.  I feel a little restriction but I am not throwing up at all which is good.  I know I can do this.  I will be below 200 by the end of the year.

Just an update,  I am feeling pretty good.  My weightloss has picked up again.  I still need to get moving.  I still am glad I had surgery although sometimes I wish I would have had GBP.  Anyway this is what I chose so I have to make it work.

Another fill.  I am 2.8 in my 4 cc band.  Not to tight at all.  I wish it would be a lilte tighter.  If I don't tighten up before 11-11 I'll get some more.  I have to get moving or I'm not gonna loose anymore of this fat.  Lisa says I can most definately loose if I work at it.  I'm giving it a good try.

Staying on track and I think its paying off. My daughter and husband both have noticed I am getting smaller. I do feel smaller but my scales don't show it yet. I am still sticking to the program. I am not giving up. I am going to do this. I want to be under 200 by valentines day. I really think I can.

It's been so long........

I can't believe it's been so long since my surgery. It's been a tough 6 months or so for me. My weightloss has been terrible, My emotions have gotten the best of me and I went back to that emotional eating. But now I am doing much better, I am back on track and determined to get this last 75 lbs off. The first 80 came off so easy and now it is time to work. The last few months have really taught me this is just a tool in the many parts that is takes to loose the weight. I have a few great friends that are supportive and my family is really helping. I am not going to give up. However, I do have to take things day by day. Back to the band rules. I had gotten away from which have caused me to get an ulcer, not loose any weight, and feel like crap. I am one of the girls that always looks for a way around the rules. Well it looks like this time I am going have to follow them.

Well I am finally back at the computer.  I had emergency Gallbladder surgery on 01-29-07 and have been out of pocket for a couple of week.  I am feeling much better.  Down close to 40lbs.  YEA!!!!!!!!  The most weight I have ever lost in my life.  My family is really being very encouraging.  They are always telling me how great I am looking.  I am starting to finally feel a difference.  I really miss my pop though.  Oh, I did have my second fill on 2-8-07 and all is well.  I am 1.5cc in a 4cc band

Ok, I'm down 30 lbs.  Today is my six week bandiversary.  I am so thankful for my band right now.  Things are pretty tough, my step-dad one of the most loving people I know is in his last days on this earth and before I would have turned to food.  It has been really different learning to deal with my emotions rather than eating them.  I didn't realize I was such an emotional eater until these past few months.  I never thought I would be able to go through the stress I'm under without food.  I thank God for my band.  I thank him for the 30lbs that are gone forever.  I thank him for the life I am getting.  I just wish my "pop" could have seen me healthier.  He was so proud I was able to have surgery.

I am doing good. Trying to adjust to this new way of life.  I had my first fill this week.  It was no big deal, the only difference I'm not hungry which is great!!  I hope to see the weight start to drop.  I am down 22 lbs and I am ready to see a difference.  It still seems almost surreal, I keep thinking is this just another weightloss atempt or can this really be a forever change.  It's very scary.
