1st PB!

Hello everyone,   I have been meaning to blog, but I have been so busy lately. But a few weeks ago I had my first PB!! It was after 230am (shouldn't have been eating that late!) and I was eat a corn dog, I think I may have been eating too fast. And I felt something that was maybe a little stuck. And then it happened and I was sooooooooo scared!!! OMG!!! But afterward I decided not to finish my food and I went to bed. I don't ever want that to happen again!   Be blessed!

No Fill Today

Well I went in for my first fill, but when I told Dr. Harper what has been happening he decided today wasn't a good time. I was fine with that since I don't think I need one. If is't up to me I'd rather not have a fill...it's been eleven weeks and I'm still losing. So hopefully, I can go longer:phanvan. I had the Barium and it went straight through the band, so that was good. I thought my band had slipped, but it's in place:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:. Today's workout was tough on me, I walked my 3 1/2 miles, but I had on my plastic sweat suit and a jogging suit on top of that!!!:faint: :faint: :faint: I know I was wrong for that!! My legs were weak and I felt like I was going to past out and I think the temperature was in the 80's today:faint: :faint: but I kept going to the end. Tomorrow I will take it easy and no more double layered workouts!!   Be BLESSED!

Try Try Again Liquids for Two Weeks

Today is was day one of the liquid phase. I am trying to get that momentum back if at all possible. SO! I had 52 grams of Whey protein and sugarfree juice and one popsicle. And I went running in probably 99-100+ degree weather. I pray I can continue...but I do have another fill scheduled for Wednesday the 28th of this month. This fill will be number five in over three years. Until tomorrow, Keep the Faith.

Didn't Meet June Goal

I didn't meet my goal for June and honestly I have slack on my eating. I still work out a lot (walking mostly), but I need to start lifting weights to get my arms and legs in shape. I need to lose 21 more pounds to be at goal. So I don't know what I need to do to get them off. I was thinking about doing the low carb diet again to lose and gain muscle, but I'm not sure. I know I am tired of being stuck at 191! Anyway, I'll figure it out. I have the 10cc band and my first fill was on 6/6/07. I know I need another fill, but I was trying to lose the 21 pounds without getting another one. Well, it will all work out and the 21 pounds will eventually come off.   Be blessed!

Treadmill Workout

I will admit that I do not like the treadmill. I can walk 3 1/2 miles at a hilly park, but on the treadmill I normally do over 1 1/2 mile in 30 minutes. However, last nighht I did 2 miles, burned 260 calories, 81 fat calories in 32:55 minutes and I was jogging the entire time! That's a treadmill goal for me! I'm trying to break this stupid plateau! Anyway, my menu yesterday:   Breakfast: Nothing Lunch: Half of Orange Roughy stuffed w/ crab cake and shrimp Dinner: 1/2 cup of 1/3 less sugar frosty flakes w/ skim milk     Be Blessed!

Fourth fill

On June 1st I had my fourth fill and I think this maybe the one. Now I am aware in the mornings the band is tighter, but this is crazy! I had a peanut butter cracker on yesterday and I was doubled over! And it happened today. However, I must say I am EXCITED! But the stuck feeling is not good.
