The Amazing Body....14 Weeks Post Op....Laura Key

How amazing is this new body of mine? I lost an additional 5 pounds this past week. I am moving like never before, enjoying my new body and the new clothes that come with it!

I am sleeping better, walking better, and breathing better!:smile2:

I currently have 5.9cc's in my band. I am at my sweet spot! I just can't say it enough.....I am one happy lady.

I have to say the emotional part has been a journey as well. Some days I feel invincible, others a bit scared. As I am shedding these pounds other things come up that I have to tackle.:crying: But I am taking it one day at a time and that's fine by me.

I seem to have the most trouble with breakfast. I tend to be tight in the mornings. It was suggested to drink some warm tea 30 minutes before breakfast. I do that sometimes, other times I just eat what I can then move forward.

I am starting to wonder if I will have a lot of loose skin. I seem to be dropping so fast. I exercise five days a week but I really need to add weights. I just hate that part. I could do cardio all day. I do like my Wii Fit so I am trying to include that in my workouts at least twice a week to start. Boy were my thighs sore that first workout! Whew! As far as I am concerned that Wii was a good investment toward my health. (wonder if you could write that off toward health expenses!)

All in all, I am still happy and wish I would have done this sooner!

Wow, good for you. Reading your entry just makes me want this all the more.

Wow you're losing fast girl! Keep up the great work. The skin will be what it's going to be unless you're really young...someone here said 'it's a badge of honor' LOL. Your exercise enthusiasm is great!

YOU ROCK! KEEP IT UP!!!!!

Congrats your weight loss is amazing. I started exercising last week. My weight loss jumped up to a loss of almost 3 lbs last week. I am feeling so much better about my weight, and I'm sure you feel the same way. How many fills have you had? How much did they fill you each time? Take care and have a lovely night!

I love following you. I like that you post your progress on a steady basis. I am so happy for you!
