Today I'm doing something I know I shouldn't - I'm just flying by on my menu. When you don't plan you plan to fail, as the old saying goes. I need to be careful with what I choose to eat today.   Here is my plan:   Bfast QT coffee, iced   Snack string cheese   Lunch roasted chicken salad (going out to run errands and I will run by a local deli and pick this up)   Dinner - ground hamburger, small orange - weird combo I know, but I'm thinking this is what I will have   10:00 am - 15 min on elliptcial machine 3:00 pm - 15 min on elliptical machine   9:30 - LBWO at the gym   11:00 pm - be in bed and asleep - I know this probably WON'T happen, but thats my plan   My fill is next week, I'm SOOOOO ready for it!   Wt - Another day I didn't weigh! Yay!

Fill #15 - This could be the one!

I went for "hopefully" my very last fill yesterday. The doctor added about 2/10th of a cc and it was a bit much, so he withdrew (he said less then 1/10th). I really don't know what I have in my band, but I think right at 4cc's in a 4cc band. I am on liquids/soft foods for three days. I'm hoping this is the fill that gets me to goal. Only 15 pounds until goal - I'm so close I can smell - taste - and see the goal in sight! Below is my fill history.   Fill #1 - 3/6/07 - 2.2cc's   Fill #2 - 4/17/07 - 3.0cc's   Fill #3 - 7/6/07 - 3.5 cc's (I think it was only 2.5cc's because when I went back for fill #4, he could only w/draw 1.8 cc's)   Fill #4 - 7/20/07 - filled me back to 3.0 ccs - He should have filled me more!   Fill #5 - 8/17/07 - 3.4cc's   Fill #6 - 10/08/07 - filled me to 3.8cc's - the best restriction I've ever had,but still could eat big bites of food, so I figured I needed to be tighter.   Fill #7 - 11/21/07 filled to 4.0 cc's. By the evening could not hold anything down, not even my saliva. PBing all night - horrilble experieince   UNFILL #1 - 11/23/07 - unfilled to somewhere between 2.5 to 3.0 cc's - NO RESTRICTIONS AGAIN   Fill #8 - 1/18/08 Went in and the doc filled me back up to just right under 4.0, according to Flouro, it was perfect. Well, by next morning, could not hold down saliva again, ended up back in hospital   UNFILL #2 - 1/19/08 - Doctor had to unfill me to 3.0 again because of the swelling from all the PBing for being too tight. Again, NO RESTRICTION - :thumbdown:   Fill #9 - 2/12/08 - 3.5 cc's - was tight for about a week, now feel lose again. grrrr, still have "some" restriction, just not quite enough! Next fill scheduled for 4/7/08 - I hate that it takes sooooooo long to get in to see the fill doc.   FILL #10 - 4/7/08 The doc just added .4cc's, making me at 3.9cc's. I think this might be the one!   FILL #11 - Was scheduled on 6/25/08 - but the doc did not fill me up, I was leaving for a cruise on 6/27 so he didn't want to risk me being too tight, so did not get a fill.   FILL #11 - 8/5/08 Went for a fill, this time the doc took all my fill out and all he could get out was 2.4 cc's. Filled me up to 4.0 cc's, I left, had to go right back because I could not drink, he took out a little over .2 cc's, he said I'm somewhere between 3.5 to 3.7 cc's. - I had great restriction for 2 weeks, but It has now loosened some. I feel I might need a tad more. I'm worried I have a very slow leak.   UNFILL #3 - 8/5/08 - Took a little over .2 cc's out, had pretty good restriction, but still a tad too lose.   FILL #12 - 9/17/08 - Added just 1/10th of a cc - I think I'm somewhere between 3.8 to 3.9 cc in a 4cc band. I am hoping and praying this is the fill that I stop with! I do not have another appointment for another fill, will wait this one out and see.   Fill #13 - 10/06/08 - Doc added about 2/10's of a cc. He took everything out and put it all back in and said I was about 3.7 to 3.8cc's. - which is where he said I was last time.   FILL #14 - 11/10/08 - Doc took everything out and I had about 3.6cc's, which is pretty good. He then filled me up to just under 4.0cc's I believe I'm about 3.9cc's. I ate some canned peaches and set around the office for a bit, made sure none came back up. Seems to be doing good so far. I hope this is my last fill! FILL #15 - 08/10/09 - Added about 1/10th of a cc. I think I'm right at 4.0 cc. Wt on the morning of my fill was at 165. But was very bloated from steroids I was on for the previous week.

Well, exercise was great two weeks ago, last week, didn't get it done. But.....I'm back at it this week.   Eating has been great, except had a slip on on Friday night and Saturday night...grrrrrrrrr. But back on track and going strong.   My body really likes the 160's, I seem to hover around 163. I'm ready to get out of the 160's for good and never see them again. SO, in order to do that, I MUST exercise and NO MORE SLIPS!   Todays menu:   WW smoothie shake 1 TBSP on peanut butter 1 cup of Soy Milk   Lunch 3 oz chicken 3 organic lettuce pieces salsa (made lettuce wraps)   Snack Banana Low fat string cheese   Dinner WW meal (pizza - 7 pts)   Exercise - 45 min circuit training   Wt - 163.9

So far, since last Thursday, I've been at the gym pretty much every day! Yay me! Am I really back? I think I am!   One of my readers posted a comment yesterday on my blog asking the question if I am eating enough. I really counted my calories yesterday, weighed out everything and ended up eating a total of 1194 calories. I think that is enough. So I'm happy with that.   I am going to start posting my menu the next day, because what I said I was going to eat yesterday, ended up being a little different.   Here is what my menu ended up looking like:   5:20 am - 45 min of hard core training on the elliptical machine   8:00 am - 2 boiled eggs, 2 slices of bacon and coffee with cream = 290 calories   10:30 am - banana and about 9 almonds = 154 calories   1:00 pm - Jillian Michaels protein shake - Yummy - mixed wtih 1 cup of skim milk and 1 TBSP of organic peanut butter = 280 calories   2:40 pm - bartlett pear and about 7 almonds = 160 calories   5:30 pm - 1 cup of my homemade hamburger stew and just 1 itsy teeny bite of my garlic bread = 250 calories   9:15 pm - had a suger free dessert, jello chocolate mousse while I was watching the Biggest Loser (Go DANNY!) = 60 cal   TOTAL calories = 1194   Wt - didn't weigh! Stayed off the scales and trying to stay off them until 12/14/09. Just focussing on getting to the gym and eating right!   My plans tonight are:   1 hour of cardio, 1 hour of weight training (upper body & abs)

Woke up this morning with a tad bit of acid reflux. I got to say, I love it! Yes, you heard me right, I love it! That means I've got some restriction! I ate a bit late last night, so I think that way I had a little reflux. My restriction feels pretty good, I am eating a lot less, which I LOVE! Hopefully I can get rid of the 10 lbs that I've gained lately with my "no restriction".   I'm about to go get dressed and head to my gym today, they are open until 2:00 pm, so I'm going to take advantage of it!   Menu today:   Bfast very small (about 1" x 1") piece of cake - I know, not good. coffee   Lunch - Roasted cornish hen (3 oz)   Dinner - grilled fish salad   Exercise - 45 min elliptical machine 30 min weight training   PS - tomorrow morning at the gym they are havinfg a "burn the turkey" workout. I'm going to go to that. Even though as you can see by menu, I don't participate in the Thanksgiving festivals, I plan on taking advantage of the "intense" workout they are having. Its a 2 hour class, so I should burn some calories tomorrow.   Wt 172.5 - yuk!:cool2:

Well, everything is going along. Weight is just staying on, but I'm losing a little here and there.   I've been making it to the gym, last night I was so tired and almost blew it off, but I knew I needed to go. I didn't do my strength training, however, I did do over 30 min on the elliptical and burned about 325 calories. So, I was happy that I went.   My fill #11 is still going pretty good. I think I might need to be just a tad tighter but I'm afraid to go back. I fear that I will get too tight, or he'll take too much out of the fill and not fill me back up right? My band is so tricky, just a tad makes a huge difference. I'm debating on rather to just stay like I am. I am scheduled to go again in September, I believe its the 17th. However, I might just cancel it. I will wait and see how I am when the time runs around.   My eating has been going pretty good. Last night I did eat a very small peice of cheesecake my daughter made, but it was small and I was full after I ate it and didn't eat dinner.   Menu today 1/2 cup cereal with strawberries and skim milk   lunch chicken breast (3 oz) and pinapple   snack cottage cheese   dinner fish/salad   wt. 181.5:unsure:

I am feeling good! I got up yesterday morning at 5:00 am - worked out, then last night went back to the gym and did some circuit training while working my upper body.   I went to bed early last night, took an ambien so I would go to sleep. The alarm goes off at 5 am and I'm a little druggy from the ambien, but I forced myself to get up and I hit the gym again. I will also try and go tonight around 8:30 and do 30 min on the elliptical.   I did not weigh this morning and trying to stay off the scale until Friday. I really want to be in the 160's and I'm getting close!   The only "bad thing" I did, was I made this roasted chicken with a mushroom gravy and homemade mashed potatoes. I had a small bowl of the potatoes with the chicken and gravy poured over it, it was soooooo good, I had to have another scoop of it. So I ended up eating two helpings. I'm sure it was loaded with calories.

So far, no slips, except 1 peanut butter cookie that I ate over a two day period.   Wt was up this morning, but I know thats what I usually do when I first get to the gym, so I'm not worried about it.

I will also go down at 10 and don another 15 min on elliptical and probably at 3 will walk a mile.   Thursday I plan on going to the gym in the am, and also in the pm.

3/2/07 menu

One thing I want to do in my journal is be COMPLETELY honest about what I eat, even if its bad. I just want to be able to look back on my journal and say, oooo thats why I didn't lose, or wow, I did great - so here goes my menu for today:   Breakfast - cottage cheese mixed with 1/2 container of LC yogurt   Lunch - Ham chef salad - ranch dressing on the side. Salad had about 340 calories, dressing had 75 cals. I ate all my salad, but it was a small side type salad that had ham on it.   snack - string cheese   Dinner - Oh boy.....we went out to eat at this Amish buffet - need I say more? Okay, I'll try and list what I ate - 2 1/2 small pieces of FRIED catfish dipped in taurter sauce, about 3 bites of a meatloaf (very good) about 4 bites of salad, a bite of green beans, 2 bites of sour krout, two sips of water, a bite of chocolate cake, two bites of peanut butter pie, a bite of my DH's coconut cream pe - so basically 4 bites of sweats (pies/cakes), not too bad, but not that great. In the past I would have eaten 4 pieces of pies. I again, ate a bit too much, but not miserable, just full.   Water - 50 oz   Exercise - 20 min Elliptical machine (HIIT)   Supplements - 2 thermo Dynamx before breakfast, 1 multi vitamin, B-12. 2 more thermo dynamx before lunch   Notes - I wanted to add another thing to my journal about my binge last night. Although yes, it was a binge - 8 cookies is not a little snack, it was a binge, I learned something. I learned that in the past, after one of my usual binges, I would wait an hour or so, then go back for more. I did not do that last night. My tool helped me STOP the binge. I usually will go on a binge for DAYS. Once I have a binge, there is no stopping me, however, my tool did stop me. I was miserable last night, and today I am still thinking I do not want to feel that way again. So, my tool did help me.   As punishmet, I decided I would step on the scales to show myself what the binge did to me. I was quite surprised to see I had lost another pound. So, I was happy that the binge did not make me go up in weight.

3/9/09 - I hate Mondays!

Okay, Mondays.......I just hate them. I always feel so disorganized on Mondays. I'm always tired (partied too hard on the weekend - not beer drinking partying, just a lot of running and errands kind of partying), I am always lacking my sleep on Mondays, and it seems everything goes wrong. Can we start a petition to outlaw Mondays?   My DH wakes me up this morning at 7:30 "honey, what time do you have to be at work today". uhhhh "the same time I've worked for the past 10 years dear". He said "it's 7:30", I fly out of the bed without even touching the floor "Oh, crap, I have to be at work in 30 min". NOw mind you, my driving time is 30 minutes alone. I throw on something that doesn't need to be ironed, brush my teeth, and head out the door. Oh crap, back into the house I go, I grab my lunch, and head back out the door. Okay, I glance at the clock, I'll only be about 10 minutes late I think. I'm cruising down the highway at a nice 65 mph, and all of a sudden, screech, uuuurk, I slam on my brakes. I am sitting at a complete stop for 15 minutes. Finally on the radio they announce a 5 car pile up on the highway I'm on. Oh, I tell you, I knew from that moment, it was going to be a bad day!   I get to work, FINALLY, 1 hour later, looking thru my purse 5 times and still I could not find my badge. I have to go thru a long check in process with Security. So after getting in thru the security (which acts like we are the freaken white house and wants to check all your credentials, along with almost taking your fingerprints and everything else you might have) I get to my desk, to realize I had a conference call at 8:30 this moring that I missed.   I go pour me a cup of coffee, I need the caffiene this morning! So I'm sipping my coffee, and oops, there goes the coffee, all over my pants, all over my floor and splashes on my new purse which I paid big bucks for, So I run to get a paper towel, and we are out of paper towels in the kitchen. I finally get some out of the bathroom. I get the coffee cleaned up and then go unlock my desk, and I can't find my desk keys. I'm looking thru my pruse, but and they are no where. But as I'm looking thru my purse, I find my badge. grrrr, I couldve saved myself the long Security check in after all!   I have a big call this afternoon and I need my keys! So now I have to drive home (25 miles) at lunch and get my keys!   Now, this is the kind of stuff that happens to me EVERY MONDAY, so with that being said, lets all ban together and OUTLAW MONDAYS!   Okay, I need to start thinking positive or I will be a complet Beotch the entire day.   I missed my workout this moring - overslept - so I have a backup plan, going tonight after my weight watchers meeting.   I have done pretty good this week on WW plan. Had a slip here and there, but I think I did pretty good. I weighed this morning and my scale shows not a big loss, maybe not even a loss. I will find out tonight when I go the meeting and they weigh me.   Well, since I am so far behind today, getting to work late and all, I better sign off and get back to work.

Fill #19 seems to be pretty good, not too tight for sure, and might be a tad too lose. I'm going to ride it out and keep track of my tightness and see how low it last. I think I need to be just a little tighter - and if I could get it there, and keep it there, it would be a wonderful thing for me!   Today's menu:   Bfast just had some iced coffee I made with with skim milk   Lunch 3 oz of chicken   Dinner Roasted chicken green beans   Exercise - 45 min on elliptical   wt 172.7 - this absolutely SUCKS!@ so discouraged!!!!!!!!! I was at 158!:cool2:

Menu:   Bfast 4 strawberries, 4 mini chicken pieces   Lunch Multi Grain Tortilla filled with southwestern spicey mustard, grilled chicken and spincach leaves   Snack - string cheese, shaved turkey breast   Dinner - not sure, but I promise it will be healthy - DH & I have a date nite tonight :sleep:   Exercise - 10:00 am - 15 min on Elliptical 3:00 pm - 15 min on Elliptical planning on 9:00 pm - 20 min HIIT   WT - 181 (a little shocked that it didn't go down more - but hey, I'll take it and I'm just focussing on eating right and making exercise a part of my new life again, I'm sure the scales will continue to move down!)   Notes - I was so tired last night, almost blew off going to the gym, but I will not let myself down again. So, I got my tired butt off the couch, and DH even went with me. I decided to do some circuit training to burn as much calories and build a little muscle as well. I actually had a good time at the gym, yes, I really did. I cant wait to go again tonight. :biggrin:

Well, I am doing pretty good now on the WW plan. I think the band and the ww plan go hand in hand. I am eating bandster size portions pretty much and eating healthy food. Going to the WW meetings is keeping me accountable. Its something that I need right now, and Its working for me.   I did lose 3.6 lbs according to the ww scales. Now, I do weigh with clothes on at the WW meeting, but at home, I weigh naked and first thing in the morning, so I'm always lower at home than at the meetings.   But according to the WW scales on Monday night, I weighed 172. I'm still up .4 lbs since joining WW. However, this week is the turning point! I can tell I'm starting to shrink and by my scales this morning, I've lost another 2 lbs! Yay.   I did go exercise last night, and I go to the doc tomorrow and hopefully I will get released to get back to exercising. I just got on the elliptical machine last night and took it easy for about 35 min. I'm ready to strength train and really work out hard, but I have been holding off until my 6 week post op check up. I don't want to cause any problems, and I've talked to too many woman who have had the hysterectomy who tell me to LISTEN to the doc, so I'm following their advice.   Anyhow, I'm doing good with the WW plan and so far enjoying it and hopeing it helps me lose the last 20 freaken pounds!   Wt this morning 167.5   Exercise - plan on hitting the gym for another 30 to 40 minutes tonight:thumbup:
