Week 19 Post Op

Posted 04-17-2009 at 03:42 PM by Florida Pete

Another week down and another pound lost. Not as much as I would have liked but still a pound is a pound. I have been struggling a little this week with eating. Not in the amount that I can eat but in what I can eat. I have had a few things come right back up after eating. I am not sure if it's been the food itself, maybe not chewing enough, taking to big of bites, or eating to fast. Probably some of all. LOL Still it's been taking getting some used to with the tightness of the band but I am getting...

Week 18 Post Op

Posted 04-10-2009 at 07:43 AM by Florida Pete

Well this week wasn't so good. I gained 2 lbs this week but I really am not surprised. I did better with food and I did get a fill on Monday but my stress level was way up this week. Really that is all I can contribute it too. My fill has restricted the amount of food I can eat. I am back down to eating a very small portion. I have continued to walk every day and the walk is about 1.8 miles long. Last Sunday I took a 3 mile walk but unfortunately I don't have the time to do that every day. Maybe...

Week 17 Post Op

Posted 04-03-2009 at 07:03 AM by Florida Pete

I did it! I broke the 100 lbs lost mark! I can't believe it. Even when I was getting on the scale this morning I was thinking that I probably had a gain this week and I didn't. Hell no I didn't! I lost and lost a good amount!!! 6 pounds lost!!!!!

I don't know if the loss had more to do with stress or if it had to do with the longer walk that Karen and I are doing now. We're up to 1.8 miles of walking and it takes us about 35 minutes to walk that. I honestly am amazed at how much of...

Week 16 Post Op

Posted 03-27-2009 at 06:25 AM by Florida Pete

Well for the last several weeks I had been struggling with my weight loss. It's been due largely to needing a fill and finding the right balance between exercise and food consumption. Well this week I did much better. 3 pounds lost this week! I am down to 386 lbs just 1 pound shy of 100 since my highest weight! So in another week I will be able to celebrate the next milestone.

One thing I did to help my weight loss this week was to push myself harder in my exercise. It sounds kind of...

Week 14+ Getting Back on Track

Posted 03-15-2009 at 08:09 PM by Florida Pete

So this last several weeks I have strayed off the path and know it. I slowed to losing a pound a week for several weeks then this last week I stopped the loss and gained instead. Yes it was only a pound but that is one pound that I had previously worked off. I know I didn't go through the last 6 months of pre-op work and then post-op work to lose the weight I have to only start going back words. No I did not. So now it's time to get back on track.

I know I need a fill. I can eat way...
