Exciting

My best friend and I decided to shop at Khol's, the old me would sit around watching my friends shop and I just help them pick out clothes. But this time my friend was making try on different things, and at first I wouldn't because I was afraid that it wouldn't fit. But the XL fits great. I never owned a Mudd shirt and I love their clothes its just that I was never able to wear them. I did buy this Mudd sweater and I'm happy. I can finally shop for shirts and I don't have to go to a special stor

I have to get surgery...again

Okay so I went for my first fill on Aug 25th but i couldn't get it because some how my port was flipped on it's side and the doctor tried to flip it back and it didn't budge, so therefore my surgery is Monday, he just he's not removing the band he's just flipping my port up the way it needs to be. Now I wonder what was the cause of it flipping? I think maybe the first week of my surgery, I was doing zumba, maybe that could be???? I don't know, but this time buddy i'm just going to walk, not doin

My Addiction

Zumba is now my addiction, I love ittt our job now offer Zumba for an hour with a Zumba instructor on Tuesdays and it's free for us, But I also take a Zumba class on Saturdays that I pay for. So in between tuesday and saturday I do get a little 30 minutes walk in or if I'm watching tv I take my dumbells and work out my arms, because I don't want to have flabby arms. Anyway doing Zumba twice in one week, thats 2000 calories burnt already, because an hour of Zumba class is 1000 calories burnt. Wh

This morning,

I had a great morning walk this morning, I walked for 30 minutes and according to my pedometer I burned 304 calories. Now I'm prepared to go to work, I feel energized, I don't feel tired like I usually do when its time for work, i'll take these morning walks often. :closedeyes:

Well, I don't feel so bad.

Okay so as you guys know I was having a food meltdown, since I've been on my liquid diet, I have 5 more days of this. But i got on the scale just now, I started at 309, now I am 295....a total of 14lbs lost. Wow, I am going to go walking bright and early tomorrow morning that just gave me more motivation. I did do my Zumba on Saturday and it did make me feel more energized. Focus, Focus, Focus

Hungryyyyyyyyy Post Op day 3

When will day 10 get here so I can break open this can of Tuna. I was fine for the first few days, now a sista is hungry. I am in my room listening to music, reading books, pacing back in forth, going to sleep waking up, doing whatever i can to get my mind off of this. I wasn't hungry for the first couple of days, now I am hungry. I think I will get me a bottled water and shake some crystal light in there. I am trying my bestest, because I want to make sure I am doing everything correctly. It's

had my band done yesterday

I am not in pain, but I feel uncomfortable like someone punch me in my stomach. I did take my pain pill just in case so I wouldn't be in pain the next morning. Im up now because I was drowsy earlier and went to sleep early so i'm up now. My incision by my navel was bleeding last night on my pillow and I had to wash my decor pillow really good, so I have extra bandages and I place it ontop so it wouldn't leak through my shirt again. My doctor told me to wait till late tomorrow evening to remove b

July 12,2010 is my date guys!!!

I completed my 3 hour class about the surgery. It was very informative and the   instructor was amazing. Our instructor had the Gastro surgery so she knew first   hand about this journey we all are taking. I am glad I made the decision to do the lap   band. A lot of what she said made sense. She gave us names of different protein shakes   that didn't taste too awful, so I will be getting that shortly. I had my one on one with   Dr. Clark and he answered all of my questions. Now in the

The guys that are so afraid of my surgery...

Okay this guy I used to mess with (4yrs known) , he's all like he think I should wait and try to lose weight on my own first before I make rational decisions. First of all 2 yrs ago he claimed if he hadn't just gotten out of a relationship he would be with me. He played this lil games of saying I love you's;then when I caught feelings he had the NERVE to say..I don't like you like THAT I thought we were friends. now in 2010 he has this girlfriend he been with for 2 yrs that he previously lied ab

Zumbaaaaaa I love it

I started my Zumba classes last saturday. When I first did it my calves were killing me for two days. It was fun and I didn't quit, I kept going. I did it today and I got a little used to it, my calves feel like bats lol. My favorite song in Zumba class is Pusha Pusha by Axe..I Love that dance and I need to know by Marc Anthony has always been my favorites. Anyway, I am preparing myself towards a better me. I don't know when the surgery will be, but when I find out I will let you guys know.:smi

Do I have support? Very limited.

Okay first of all, I have only told a limited amount of people that I was getting the LAP-BAND®: Mom, Three close friends, Two close co-workers and now my Supervisor knows only because I have to turn in my FMLA for whenever I get my surgery, but my supervisor supports me because she was thinking of getting it too.   Now my best friend that I live with was saying that when people get these surgeries they look sick and it's lazy, and this was said during the time were all out to eat with her co

Jesus, I don't want to go through this again...

So I need my mom and fam more than anything in my life at this time, due to my grandma passing (she died in Dec), here in virginia is where I live and my grandma raised me, we were always together, every weekend, every other day, we were so close..my mom live in PA because she is a Navy Recruiter...I am so used not being able to be with her because she in the military and its a habit you get used to..but I miss her all the time and my little sister.Anyway I thought it would be a good idea to see

I wonder...

How it feels just to go into a forever 21 or New York Express....I hate going in with my friends and just buying accessories, because I can't fit shit else. I just want to be able to have fun and not feel miserable of why I can't do this or that. I love myself, but it's like damn I can't do shit.

My inner thoughts, I don't share.

Okay so my mother lives in another state and she always suggest the plane for me to come. I told her I was planning to come to her, after my surgery so that she can help me with my process. I made up an excuse of why I don't want to ride the airplane. I said because I was scared, which has been my lie for years. The real reason is because I can't fit comfortably in the seat, and the person next to me always gets up quickly when there is a seat available..that hurts so bad, I've cried on a flight
