Thinking about me for a change.

Posted 04-24-2009 at 12:46 AM by weightingtolose

Like most women, I usually put other people's needs before mine. However, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Do I feel bad about it???? HECK NO!!!! It's rather liberating.

Today, I was asked to have lunch with a friend which I kindly declined. Any other day, lunch would have been super nice. However, my new life consists of focusing on my bootcamp. I attended my bootcamp class today and I must say it's really growing on me. With that said, we have a week off next week....

Bootcamp and the band.

Band - Still super excited about my fill. I ate about a 1/4 of an omlet for breakfast this morning. YUMMMM. I looked at my plate and was like, "now this is how I should be eating." As instructed, I took really small bites to ensure it goes through my band. My lunch was a protein shake which I drank after bootcamp class.

Day 1 with fill and all I can say is WOW!

Posted 04-22-2009 at 12:48 AM by weightingtolose

Today was day 1 with my fill and I must admit that I need to relearn a few band rules. For breakfast, I ate a small bowl of oatmeal. Mind you, I did remember that we have to wait up to an hour before drinking. This is where I paid the price for my choices. After finishing my oatmeal, it was time for bootcamp class. Mind you, I couldn't drink for atleast an hour. With that said, I went to bootcamp and after 45 minutes, I felt like passing out. Why, you ask??? Because my lazy butt didn't wake...

At last, I did it. Had a fill after 7 month hiatus!

Posted 04-20-2009 at 02:58 PM by weightingtolose

It's official, I'm now filled. I was SUPER nervous when getting my fill. I was really worried that I'd hear, "your pouch is STILL stretched, we can't give you a fill today!" When he told me everything looked perfect, a huge sigh of relief came over me. Mind you, I had like a dozen people praying for me so I'm sure that was the ticket.

The NP injected 4cc in a 10cc band, Whoot Whoot. I was really surprised she gave me so much the first go around. When I was...

After a 7 month hiatus, I'm scheduled for a fill. I can not wait for restriction. I will commit to the following.

- no fried foods
- no chips
- no potatoes
- no bread
- Get plenty of protein in my body before any other food.
- drink atleast 64 oz. of water daily.
- workout 5-6 days a week (4 of which is bootcamp. Whoo Hoo)
