God is good!

Sep 24, 2008

This has been an incredible journey for me. I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to have the gastric banding surgery and lose 80+ pounds. I am feeling incredibly lucky with finding out that I am expecting a baby in May. I have been an infertility patient for almost 10 years and now God has blessed me with a pregnancy. Things are going well and I am truley blessed. God is good and miracles do happen. I know that I would not be here if it had not been for my weight loss! I am hoping everyone has a blessed fall season and health, wealth and happiness!

I met with the surgeon 2 weeks ago.  I have only lost 1.4 pounds in 3 months.  I did get a small fill of 0.2cc.  I think it comes down to exercise for this last 30 pounds.  I want to be close to goal for vacation in June.  I need to start moving!  I bought a walking video, a cardio ball and weights.  I need to get using them.  Hope everyone has a great Easter weekend.  I will be working all weekend at the hospital!

Exercise

Well, I am very proud of myself.  I walked one mile on the treadmill yesterday and walked one mile in the pool.  Today I walked 2 miles on the treadmill.  I bought a recreation center pass and I am going to use it!    I have to do this, I just have to.  Every 5 minutes spent on exercise is worth my health!

I made my goal!!! YIPPEE!

I made my goal of getting to 190 pounds before Halloween.  I weighed yesterday and I made it!  It was a great feeing.  I have not weighed this little in over 10 years!  It feels great!  Now to drop 10 more pounds by Christmas.  It will take some definite willpower to not munch on holiday goodies!

I paid $12 today for 5 bites of salad and an iced tea.  A friend of mine demanded that we eat at an all you can eat salad bar.  Since I have chose where to eat the last couple times, I obliged.  I grabbed a small plate and made a very nice salad with all the fixings.  I was hungry and my stomach was growling.  I thought for sure I could eat a small salad.  Five bites later, I had to stop.  I was stuffed.  Because it was all you can eat, there is no option to take the rest home.  So basically, I had a very expensive salad!  Next time, I will order off of the menu so I can take the rest with me for later!  Live and learn!
