Nothing tastes as good as thin feels

the exercise thing is definetly working. I am shrinking like crazy. I seem to be getting smaller daily. I can see it in my fingers, toes, wrists, face, and yes even the rolls ony my back are disappearing. Why couldn't I have learned this lesson a year ago when I was first banded (think I did, but fell off the wagon big time with the cookies)...

 

Whatever it is, I'm not going to stop. I feel fabulous. Over the weekend I went to the Avenue to get a new birthday outfit, yall I cried in the dressing room, I have never , ever, never, ever, ever worn a size 14 (not that I can remember). I think I was born a 20. It took me a minute to get myself together... So after I cried all over the outfit I was going to buy, I hurried up and exchanged it for something that was dry on the rack (I know, I know, I'm going to hell for that), but who wants wet clothes....

 

Enough ranting, until next time my bandster family..

 

Hope this helps someone else along their journey

what kind of excercises are you doing?

I do 20 minutes of cardio (usually treadmill), walking straight uphill at 3.0, the rest of the hour I do strength training (light weights with more repitition)

ask anything you want. Afterall, isn't that what we're here for? I work out for 1 hour, no more, sometimes 45 minutes. 20 minutes of cardio (walking straight uphill on the treadmill) and the rest strength training. I love to cook, so I don't eat anything I don't like. I mainly eat seafood (goes down the best), I switch it up sometimes with ground turkey and make 7 layer dip. This last fill has really done the trick

I'm no millionaire, but grabbing hold to your weight issues and actually winning has got to be right up there at the top of the list
