What is wrong with me?

I feel like im beating a dead horse with this whole, i fell off track thing. I read back on my posts from months ago, and i feel im still at the same place. im not working out, not eating what i should and NOW im at my max fill. just got filled the other day. WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH ME? was i really ready for the lapband? was i ready to change my eating habits? was i ready? i feel as if i were i would have co-operated by now! u also think i would be motivated. im a matron of honor in my

gettin back on track

so funny how things go hand in hand. i feel ive been a bit off track. im a 6cc in a 11cc band. i go for my 3rd fill in 2 weeks. also i looked and im not on this site as much so its easy to forget ive been banded. as weird as that might sound.:frown: i have a tool! i need to use it!:thumbup: back to liquids for a couple days for me. i know i can do it. i need to be focused. back to the gym today for me too. i can just feel that my next fill will help me. i just know it. when people use to

trial and error

so this week has been a series of trial and error. and its only tuesday! Sunday had a family dinner and def had some sangria. i grazed and drank. then on monday i said im gonna be good. people at work ordered burgers and i got one. ate the burger at noon. totally didnt eat slow and totally ate the whole thing. i was ssoooooooo stuffed i couldnt possibly eat anything for rest of the day and night. i sipped water. that was the first time i have ever ate to feel that full. WHATA MISTAKE! today

There always ur first......

so yesterday was my first day working out! to me it wasnt a full work out though. i worked out for 20 min. wow am i outta shape or what. first time doing exercise in 7 weeks. i was so hungry all day long yesterday! my metabolism was racing and just kept trying to get good amount of protein to control my hunger. it was hard. i am so tired today not only did i work out but i worked 12 hours yesterday and got 7 hours of sleep. ouch. not my normal day thats for sure. im so tired today and r

sorry if its TMI :)

so besides needing to get back on track. something is new and gross! BODY ODOR! i have NEVER smelled bad and when i was sweating cause i was to hot from the heat im my house or starting to work out I SMELLED! this is so weird! has anyone expeirenced this? losing weight and im smelling? i need answers lol but my best friend motivated me today! i pretty much can eat and drink anything EXCEPT soda! so i do have restriction but instead of 12 cookies its one! not the right mind set. now i see why

Welcome to 2010!

Happy new year everyone!   so basically new years eve i cooked at my house and we had all protein! lol i thought it was pretty funny when i finally looked at what i cooked. lots of fish and chicken. not that it was all cooked healthy but it wasnt entirely full of fat either.:smile2:   i grazed all night and because i was eatin and eatin i only ended up drinking one glass of wine. all that i ate when i grazed i probably still didnt eat as much as i would of if i didnt have the band. altough i

Wine, Dine, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

woke up today with a little bit of a headache! last night i drank 2 glasses of wine instead of one! maybe i got a headache cause one was red and the other was white. although white seems to go down better and red can sometimes burn my stomach a little bit. and this is so weird for me cause i could drink alot more wine! lol well i guess thats good considering its not good for caloric intake. :biggrin:   water, water, water! i tested drinking wine about 4 weeks after surgery and my body didnt re

Day 2 of restriction!

so i definately was filled! i couldnt stop burping yesterday! it was so annoying! i have talked to some people that have said they didnt even feel restriciton at 4cc! i think thats weird! i have a 11cc band and most people have 9 or 10 but the bands are changing all the time!:w00t:   so today is my first day back on food! i was so hungry yesterday doing liquids but i managed. but i def feel full and i just had 3/4 of a thin wrap with homemade chicken salad which is my fav thing to eat! :tt2:
