Tomorrow is a new day- Every small step is a milestone - that you are walking instead of riding at the store is AWESOME~ I agree you need to set goals - I set small goals like 10 lbs in a month - For me I think I will set long term goals once I become more sucessful - You need to find an excercise that will not put to much stress and expectations for yourself so you will look foward to it and not DREAD it-- The pool is a great tool - it is easy on the limbs and you get strenth excercise at the same time from the water resistance - even just walking in place for 20 minutes will burn 200 calories You can do this - KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK - Email me if you need a buddy I think we had our surgery about the same time deboramo@att.net

Tomorrow will be better. Hang in there. It's hard when you still have the hunger. I was banded with nothing in my band so I'm getting getting to the point that my hunger is leaving. (was banded on 12/9/10) this doesnt mean that it will take you that long. I had to keep reminding myself that once I do get the restriction I need I dont want to start all over again losing the weight that I gained after banding. You have been doing a great job getting more active. After years of a sendentary lifestyle, it took a while for me to get back into fitness, but I did and I love it! You will too! Good luck!

Don't put of going to curves, once you get started it will become a habit. I go there 5 mornings a week and also bike ride after. I started out walking then added curves and now riding my bike! I will be 3 months out on the 4th and have dropped 67 pounds so I am half way to my goal. As for ice cream, I buy weight watchers and treat myself with one aday so I don't eat something bad! Good luck, you can do it.

I think your doing great so far, my goal is to be down 50 Pounds before my husband gets home for R&R from Afgan, I cant wait to see the look in his eyes when he sees me! Another goal is im a shopaholic and once I do lose the 50 pounds I get to go buy me some new jeans off the shelf. Keep up the good work and if u want to cheat have one day a week where u can have a small something that way ull be looking forward to your cheat day
