Finally I have gotten back to reality. Holiday season really kicked my butt. I am now journalling my food and exercise and feel better for it. Luckily I only gained back 4 lbs through the holiday blues. It was not unexpected as I had lost my mother last year on Christmas day and knew that it would spiral me down for a while, but I AM BACK

It is very sad when the one that should be most supportive of you decides to choose another route and it does not match the one you are on.
-
losing weight again. I can't remember when I was this calm about plateauing. What a wonderful gift the band has allowed me to have.
-
Went clothes shopping today. Bought my first junior 7/8 what a thrill. Had a great clerk that put together tons of stupendous outfits, now I need somewhere to where them. Highly recommend Silver jeans.
-
Merry christmas to all my fellow WLS's. You have been an awesome new "family" that I am proud to be part of. Congratulations to each and everyone of us.
-
Had Perlane injections to decrease my facial parenthesis today. Can already see a difference. What a great xmas gift.
-

-

Unfortunately I am still learning to stop when I get to the just fine stage. That one last bite, bites me every time. What was a fabulous lunch now is not so great.
-
Made it into the 170's. Just made it mind you but I AM THERE. Thank you Dr. O, staff and fellow bandsters. My success is largely due to all of you.

Congrats!!!!! Such great news!!!! Yes!!!!
-
Yay!!! I will be there one day.
-
congratulations. proud of you
-
My stand to convert my bicycle to a stationary bike for the winter arrived today. Now I get to exercise by cleaning/organizing moving the garage around, then I can ride.
-
That's an awesome idea!!! I was wondering what I was going to do without my bike for the winter. Which one did you get?
-
I went on line and found Schwinn Mag trainer. It seems to be less invasive to my bike's workings as it uses magnetic force. Spending the weekend storing my summer garage stuff and bringing out the winter garage stuff and will make room for my "exercise area' and start up on Monday

Only .5 lb to get to the 170's. Hoping it "arrives" this weekend.

-
congrats lady keep up the good work. you in on our minigoal?
-
I am in on the mini goals. Had a chemical peel yesterday and am scheduled for laser treatment in 2 weeks. It is surreal to me to have non food goals for the first time in my life.
-
Had a consult with a licensed medical aesthetic practitioner this morning. I am going to follow up on her suggestions for reducing the effects of my weight loss from my face. First appt will be for a light chemical peel with extractions. Cross your fingers
-
with the fall weather descending upon us, I made the decision to buy a stand to convert my bike into a stationary bike to be able to ride all winter. Can't beleive this is me thinking forward about exercising in the inclement weather, it use to just be a great excuse not to have to do any exercise.
-
Today I only walked my adult dog leaving the puppy at home. We added about 1/4 mile straight uphill to our walk and I actually WOGGED (walking jog) about 1/4 mile. Can't beleive I was able and inclined to do this. Just maybe I am learning new habits.
-
So, I spent an hour going through and weeding out the clothes that are too big for me. But what became apparent is during this process I have lost my butt.

please let me know what you find in a catalog. mine is gone too! looked online at Dr. Rey but didn't see anything with pads.
-
Here is the link for the padded brief. www.akuterati.com The item is called Dr. Rey Shapewear Womens Bottom Enhancer Brief. Good shopping
-
I have also seen a product called "booty pop". LOL
-
I want to own the mirror at my doctors office. It was the first time I looked in a mirror and saw smaller.
-
Okay so, I have now "down grown" (new word) my cool jeans. Wore them today and they almost fell off. But boy o boy can I see fine lines and wrinkles in my face,. Anyone got any suggestions, non surgical or do I need to bite the bullet.
-
Just spoke to Dr So at the OCC and we determined that I still am not in need of my first fill. I think I was going to use it as an excuse to not make myself behave. Glad I talked to him.

ok I just sent you an email from your profile page. I'm dying how you decided to wait till now also.
-
I waited till now as i have been losing ~2 lbs a week or more since being banded. In the last week or so, I feel I could eat more but am learning to "eat just till satisfied not to full" (quote from Dr. So
-
Oh oh! I wonder if I should have waited. I am still loosing but desperately hungry all the time. I eat about a third of what I used to eat and I am not even close to satisfied. Just afraid to overeat cause I don't know how the band will punish me.
-
I'm starting to "cheat" and not happy about it. Need to refocus
-
Wow, marked the day on my calendar, I am wearing size 12 bottoms and a medium top. ya gotta love it
-
One of the things I find most interesting since being banded is that I am ultimately making better food choices. That is not to say I don't occasionally have the "bad" food but if and when I do it is in extremely small quantities and then it is over. My mind has finally synced up with my desires and body to become who I am meant to be.
-
I totally agree. I had my bad moment yesterday with my peanut butter and jelly sandwich on potato bread! I'm over it now and I want to do well. It's important to know that an occasional stry is OK, we're not dead, we're simply on a mission!
-
oops! stray, people are probably wondering"What is a stry and how do you eat it?"LOL
