Add Me please LadyDiva618

Happy Wednesday everyone. I know I haven't been active on here lately but I am back now. So how is everyone? I hope everyone is well. Where should I begin? This month has been a good month for me despite of me being a plateau... life has been good. I had a couple of moments this month. The one that hurt the most is when I didn't get my dream job. What is my dream job? To work in Human Resources I have a degree and experience in that field and I had my 10th interview and I still didn't get the job. I felt defeated but I got back on track. I decided to continue practicing my interview skills and keep moving forward. "Every NO! is one step closer to my YES!" Yesterday I had my port placement surgery. This time Dr. Richardson didn't have me come in at 430AM it was 830AM this time! Once again my amazing daddy took me to the hospital. He was off at work at 630am that morning and was still able to stay with me the whole time! I have to admit I was really nervous this time around I don't know why but I was. However I did get the biggest surprised yesterday....... I AM IN ONEDER LAND!!! (is that the right term?) I was shock was I seen the number 193.4! I was so nervous I couldn't cry. I have seen those numbers since I was 19. Wow I am still in shock! Today I am resting I haven't got my appetite back but I am slowly drinking water. I want to do some type of exercise today but I just do want to over do it. I am so close to my high school weight! It's nice to know that my Wii Fit was not lying to me. I am going to reward myself by going shopping for some new clothes and get me a pedi on Saturday. Besides I am on leave until Dec 2nd. God is good and I am loving my band! Thanks for reading.

Hang in there. Try to keep you mind busy that is what I did.

Happy Wednesday everyone! I just like to say that consider myself a good and peaceful but when it come to me wanting to work out I become a BEAST! So why am I wrong? Let me explain. I recently moved into a nice size office and my boss told me that she will be putting a float desk in there with me as a back up. It really didn't bother me because we have 10 other computers in the bulding the my co workers can used no one would used that extra desk. I recently discovered that I can access YouTube at work and my office has enough space for me to work out. I usually walk around the buliding but since it is getting cold I decided to try working out in my office. I found Walk away the pounds One Mile walk on youtube it a 12 min video and it was perfect. I did it and felt amazing afterwards. Okay I get straight to the point. For the last 2 day I have a co workers that been working at the spare desk in my office and I've been purposely to sweat him out. I like to be nice and warm so my office is Hot as Hell like a Sauna. Did my plan work..... YEP!!!! I came in this morning and he was not in my office. So now I can workout today. BAHAHA! Thanks for reading.

Therma Care Shoulder heating pads is a must. You will thank me later Also I stocked up on sugar free popsicles because after my surgery I sick of broths! Good Luck

Well hello everyone and fellow Bariatric Pals! I am so happy that the blogs are available I was going thru withdraws to a min. LOL So what has been going on with me? Well last month I did my first 5K walk and I was amazing. (see pics below) I am set to have my port placement surgery on Nov 20th and I decided to take the rest of the month off. I am at a plateau now on my weight lost but that will changed soon. Other than that I am loving my Band! Thanks for reading.

I brought me a new pair of running shoes. So I say go shopping and burn some calories at the same time.

Good luck. I am on My Fitness Pal if you want to add me. Screen name is LadyDiva618

Every Saturday morning is my weigh ins.

We all have those days. Today is a good day to get back on track!

Looking good girl! Congrats!

The gas pain will pass. Just keep walking and take gas x. If you are have left shoulder pain I suggest buying Therma Care heating pad for shoulders. Remember this pain is only temporary. Good Luck.

I like Atkins brand and Muscle Milk cookies and cream each has around 14 to 16 grams of protein and under 160 calories.

Way to go! Keep it up!

I was banded on May 1 13 and I have lost 67 pounds total that is pre and post op. My port was removed on Sept 10 and I still have great success! Sundays are my triggers days because of sports. Sometimes a grazes sometimes I do. If I feel like I over did it... I work out another 10 mins. Since I know Sunday is my "free day" I normally burn 350 to 450 calories. If I want a late night snack Cheetos Puff corn is my choice. I know I am not perfect but I always remind myself that tomorrow is a new day.

Happy Thursday everyone! Today is a good day because there is a Cardinal Game and Blues Game tonight I am so happy! Anyway I have a funny story I like to share with everyone. Today I received a phone call for a job interview. I was too excited because it was more money. After I got off the phone I review my application so I can see which job I applied for and to review the job announcement. I was halfway down the page and this is when I noticed that this position was bilingual! I am not bilingual and I failed at Rosetta Stone. Immediately I called the person back and explained what happened. We both started laughing and he thanked me for being honest. I mean can you guys imagine how my interview could have been like? I am so glad I researched everything before my interview. Looking back I remember I applied for this position back in August around the time my coworker/friend house caught on fire and how I go thrown under the bus. I was so upset then that turned into anger that I started applying for any position. I was so unhappy back then but now I am better This is why I shouldn’t do anything out of anger. It’s a good thing I have a good sense of humor because I am still laughing about it. I hope I gave you guys a good laugh Thanks for Reading.

Welcome and keep it up!

Good Luck and see you on the other side!
