I'm hanging in there. . .
Jan 30, 2009
Today is January 31 and I have seen no progress, weight loss wise, since September. I'm the exact same weight that I was then. Talk about discouraging. Well, a lot of stressful things have happened since then. To name a few:In August, my band was filled too tight and had to have the saline taken out. I had to start all over. I still have no restriction. There, it just goes to show you that the band does work. Well, I've had a lot of medical mishaps such as . . .my baby ripped my cornea off of my right eye, I have plantar fasciitis, and of course all of the wonderful winter illnesses. I comforted myself once again with food. I had the same excuse as always. Oh, one little bite won't matter. Ya, if I could just keep it to that one little bite. But I don't, I never have and I never will. The Christmas chocolate phase led me to believe that 6 lbs gained would be ok, and easy to lose. Well, that turned into another 6 lbs, which I've been taking off and putting back on since Christmas. Well, I finally had enough. I took care of my physical problems, gave myself a pep talk and started the high protein plateau buster. Sticking to it the first few days was hard, but the reward has been a 6 lb weight loss in 5 days. YES!!! I finally feel back on track. Not being able to exercise for so long really effected my emotional state of being. Well, even though I still have plantar fasciitis, I'm using my elliptical 35min every day. I'm not looking at this weight gain as a failure. After all, I picked myself up and started all over again. I've never given up on my band and I hope my fill in two weeks will prove that it hasn't given up on me.
