My first time....

11-26-08 - Today is my first day blogging. Today is one day in the week that is the beginning of a journey towards success for me. I know it will be marked by many failures, which I will describe openly and honestly.

When I go through LBT, I see the stories of many who were banded after me, that have lost a significant amount of weight. I cannot help but be proud of them, and to be honest, a little jealous.

I was banded on 3/13/2007. I have had mild success - banded at 299lbs and currently at 254lbs (as of last saturday when i weighed myself.) The reason? I have learned to eat around my band.

My goal for this week:

• Eat within 1500 calories
  
• Write down everything I eat.
  

Today I went to PF Changs - YUMM!! and I stayed within the 1500 calories because I limited my calorie intake earlier in the day, and I went online to pull their nutritional content...wuhuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Tomorrow is the next day,

Excercise - I am thinking about Tae Kwon Do - Does anyone do this???
