Onderland New Recruit

Well its been over a year since I blogged on here. Since then I have experienced everything possible with the lapband journey. But last month I reached the 100 pound loss victory. :lol:

 

I cant tell you the joy you experience seeing peoples faces saying you have lost over 100 pounds. But even more joy on going to the section of clothing that does not have the word PLUS infront of it. :w00t:

 

I often get stuck at the same weight for a period of time. I have found that changing your routine helps. One month I cut out all oil, the next all sugar. :ohmy: I change it up to keep my body confused and it seems to be working for me. The weight is still slow but I was told this was a 3 year process and I am 15 months in. I am dedicated and hope any of you reading this keep the hope of change.

 

Win the battle... :frown:

Thanks Stina28 and CONGRATULATIONS! What an accomplishment (in the works) and very encouraging too. Good tip on weight loss stalls, I will keep that in mind. Keep us posted!

Your post is exactly what I needed to read right now. If you read mine you'll understand. Thanks so much for sharing. I was told my journey would take 18 months to 2 years...looks like it will be longer.

Congratulations! What an accomplishment! You are so right about changing your routine! I just read the book "This is why you're fat" by Jackie Warner, great read! I removed sugar from my diet (you would be surprised how much sugar is in every day food!) and changed up my work out. My scale is sliding down faster again!
