since i've updated anything.  

i've been put on medicine for high blood pressure and that is helping me with the up and down and up and down of the scale.  it's finally evened out now.  i've been on it for 1.5 weeks.  today i finally hit an all time low on the scale.  which makes me happy!!!!  i'd love to lose 20# by Memorial Day but i don't know if it's going to happen.  Since early January the scale has been the enemy - i've watched what i ate and been doing 3 miles on the Gazelle and riding horse too!  but maybe now that is all changing.

so on to Spring and see what happens now!

has moved down!     it's down a pound since last week for 2 mornings in a row!!  yay!!!!   hopefully TOM won't show up soon again and ruin it!

I FINALLY GOT A FILL.    I HAVE 2cc IN MY VG 10cc BAND.  MY TOM HAS BEEN RAISING HAVOC WITH ME SINCE THE END OF DEC....  I'VE BEEN UP AND DOWN 5# ALL MONTH AND TOM COMES AND GOES.  

THE PCP CHECKED MY THYROID AND TESTOSTERONE AND THEY ARE GOOD SO I ASKED THE SURGEON ABOUT IT AND HE DOESN'T THINK IT IS FROM THE WEIGHT LOSS........... 

I DON'T KNOW EITHER..............  ONLY THAT IT'S REALLY AGGRAVATING!

SO IT'S GOING TO BE INTERESTING TO SEE NOW WHAT HAPPENS.....

due to missing work from jury duty to jan 30.  i have lost 35# post-op to match my 35# pre-op loss so that's good i think.  i have no sexual desire and my husband is having quite the hard time with this.  is in fact mad about it...........  so he helps the situation by drinking and being an a$$hole.  i just got over TOM again...............i thought it was maybe thyroid related but maybe it's menopause starting?  i'm going to be 46 in july.  i feel like i've got fluid weight............  my eyes are puffy, i'd like to get rid of it but not sure how.

    but late........usually 3 - 3.5 weeks and it's 4...just because xmas is coming i'm sure!
      i got the orgasmic diet book, can't wait to see if that helps!

IS JANUARY 10 @ 2:00.................THEN PERHAPS I'LL GET A FILL.  HE'S SAYS IT'LL BE TIME TO SEE THE NUT AGAIN...............OH WHY.......  SHE'S ABOUT MY DAUGHTERS AGE AND TELLS ME THINGS THAT I KNOW ALREADY FROM READING AND JUST BEING OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW.   I'VE LOST 14# SINCE LAST APPT IN SEPT, I'VE NEVER EVER LOST WEIGHT QUICK SO I DON'T THINK THAT I SHOULD EXPECT ANY DIFFERENT NOW RIGHT?  I'M EATING BETTER AND DOING 2 MILES A NIGHT ON THE GAZELLE, NEED TO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT FOR THE UPPER ARM AREA.   BEEN DOING A LITTLE STRESS EATING THE LAST COUPLE DAYS WHICH I NEED TO STOP.  AND MAKE SURE I DON'T EAT MORE THAN 1.5 CUPS AT A MEAL.

i think the best thing to do is to stop eating once the hungry feeling is gone and then just get up and put  the plate in the kitchen and walk away.  

i don't ever feel raving hungry but do get those moments that i just have to have something to taste.  so i have that narrowed down to a swig of fat free skim milk or maybe a couple crackers and some cheese or maybe some cottage cheese.

i did eat some crackers and cheese the other night before supper and that wasn't a good thing to do.  i was very full i believe, all i did was belch for about 3 hours....not good!

once in awhile my nose starts to run while eating but i don't know if that the signal or just heat of the food...??  

today for lunch i had a cup of sf hot cocoa and a few saltines and rf peanut butter and i'm full. 

everything is a learning experience that's for sure

SO MY BMI HAS WENT FROM 57.3 TO TO 46 ~ SO THAT MEANS I'VE WENT FROM SUPER OBESE TO EXTREMELY OBESE.  I CAN'T WAIT TO GET TO JUST OBESE!!

MY LAST APPT WAS SEPT 20 AND AT THAT TIME I WAS 280# AND AS OF ONE DAY LAST WEEK I WAS 268.  SO I'M STILL MAKING THE CUT AT LOSING AT LEAST 1# PER WEEK.  I'M DOWN 12# IN 9 WEEKS, SO ALL IN ALL THAT'S NOT TOO BAD I GUESS WITH NO FILLS.  AND THE LAST WEEK I HAVEN'T BEEN TOO TERRIBLY HUNGRY.  I HAVEN'T HAD ALOT OF TIME HERE AT WORK FOR LUNCH AND WHEN I DO GET A CHANCE LATER ON MID AFTERNOON, I DON'T EAT AND I'M PRETTY MUCH FINE TIL SUPPER TIME.  

I STARTED OUT IN JANUARY 2007 IN A PAIR OF OVER STUFFED SIZE 26 JEANS.AND I'VE LOST ENOUGH WEIGHT TO BE IN A SIZE 20 JEANS (FADED GLORY - WALMART) -   I'M NOW IN A SIZE 8.5 TENNIS SHOE AND WAS WEARING A 9.5 - 10.  I WAS WEARING A VERY STRETCHED OUT SPORTS BRA THAT WAS A 44 D OR MAYBE DD AND CAN NOW WEAR A SIZE 42 D, AND ALSO WAS WEARING VERY STRETCHED OUT SIZE 8 UNDERWEAR AND CAN NOW WEAR THEM NICELY AND THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE LOW RISE PANTIES!  

I CAN DO 2.5 MILES ON MY GAZELLE IN 44 MINUTES AND HAVE LOADS MORE ENERGY.

I HAVEN'T HAD A FILL YET, MY SURGERY WAS JUNE 20 2007.  I STARTED THIS JOURNEY ON JANUARY 24, 2007.  I'VE LOST 66# TOTAL SO FAR.

NOT BAD I GUESS.

MY DAUGHTER SAYS I LOOK FUNNY FROM BEHIND BECAUSE I LOOK SO THIN!  THAT'S A FIRST FOR ME!! 

    has started already........i'm waking up with TOM.  oh joy..........
