I lost 3 more pounds this week all by myself and I got my insurance apporval and band date. August 1st.

I got to the beach on July 25-27 for one last celebration. I can't wait!!

I have been walking on the weekends and working at Curves Mon-Thur and finally it has paid off. I have been watching my portions and sugar and carb intake. I went to Mexican yesterday for lunch only only had a few chips and ordered the chicken Faijitas. I ate only the chicken and veggies....

I would like to start off that I did walk 45 minutes and swim for an hour today. But, I did a little farewell tour to some foods this weekend. Last night it was Bojangles and today it was frozen pizza. I am done with the both of them.

I bought a scale today – for the first time. I decided to really track my weight loss and gains. I was totally shocked that I weigh the exact same since 3 weeks ago. I have been on Slim fast and eating Lean Cuisines at lunch and I cut the snacking out. No weight loss. I am pretty disappointed with that. I am even more disappointed that my BMI is 49.6. If it goes to 50 or above BCBS will not cover the lap band and cover gastric by pass instead. According to them the...
