It's been a while since I've been on here...and so much has happened over the last year or so. Bottom line, after many many months of researching, contemplating and procrastinating...I have finally decided to have a LBL. I'm scheduled for To have surgery on Dec.2nd. I'm excited and terrified all at once!

i have maintained a 95 lb weight loss for nearly 5 years now....I'm ready! I'll post my progress - and if I muster enough courage - pictures!

keep your fingers crossed for me!

Over the weekend, my weight hit its highest since surgery - 175. Nope, not happening! I purged my system all day today (protein coffee, turkey breat and watermelon for lunch, and maybe some lean protein or dinner). I'm down to 169. This is my new starting point. My goal is to lose 6 pounds in two weeks if possible. Now lets see.....

Just completed week 3 of a very regimented workout routine. My personal trainer, who I see on Wednesdays and Fridays, is great. In addition, I'm doing  a Ripped Cardio class on Mondays, Zumba on Tuesdays and running 5k on Thusdays. I'm even trying to fit in an additional Zumba class on Saturday mornings. My calories are still averaging about 1100 - 1400 calories a day. So why am I still not loosing?

I need to stay the course, but I'm so frustrated!!!  As of today, I'm actually up 4 lbs from 3 weeks ago. Very sad and pathetic :(

 

I am so encouraged! Maybe I can actually reach my goal of 145? Only 5.5 pounds to go!!

What's better....scars or flab??? Lord knows I've got a lot of flab! My arms in particular are especially bad. To say I have "Bat Wings" would be a huge understatement. Perhaps its time. Maybe tomorrow I'll make my first call.

If I can't be honest here, with myself, then how can I hold myself accountable? I haven't lost any more weight because I'm not eating well! I've started eating sugar, and too much of it. I'm so disappointed in myself. When I heard others refer to the "slippery slope" I thought..."not, me...not ever!". But here I am.  Full confession on the table.

This morning I had three chocolate chip cookies. Yesterday, I ate a small piece of carrot cake. On Friday, I ate a small ice cream cone from McDonald's. Yes, this was an exceptional week....me at my worst.  I'm seriously freaking out.

So yes, I have failed to loose more weight. I'm stuck at 165 and I know why.....because I'm a cheater! I need to snap out of it. My hope is that tomorrow, I wake up a new and dedicated women. FOCUS lady!!!

Started logging my calories again this week and it has proven to be effective. Looks like I'm back on track and finally losing! Today, after my run, I weighed 173.4. Woo Hoo

I'm still learning my way through this.... Not sure how I would have gained 2lbs on vacation but I'm not too worried about it. We had a great time at the beach and came back with great tans! Don't sweat the small stuff! Get back on track this week. Make the most of this wonderful opportunity!

I'm discouraged...still stalling. I'm stuck at 176!

Okay, not sure what the deal is but I think I've hit a brick wall!  For the last 3 weeks the scale really hasn't  moved.  I've been at or around the 176 - 178 range for the longest time ever. I really need to re-evaluate things. I'm not eating too much, perhaps I need to ramp up the work out. I'm frustrated!!!
