  1. I am worth it!!! I just set a new personal record...two days in a row. Yesterday I shaved 9 minutes off of my 10k time and today I shaved 3 minutes off of my 5k time. I have lost 27 lbs since January 2, 2010. I am happy that I didn't give up and my hubby is back running with me. : )
  2. Wow. I just noticed that two years ago tomorrow was my FIRST day to be a part of Lapbandtalk.com. I guess it is kind of an anniversary present to myself when I start again in the morning. Not that I am being bad tonight, but not exercising until tomorrow. :Dancing_wub:
  3. NO FARTHER is the answer. I am not going to keep trying to kill myself with my own stupidity. Just because I lost my running partner (my hubby is working 7 days a week now and won't run), I refuse to continue down the wrong path. There are things I am going to do to amke little changes in my life. For starters: I will take my Thyroid meds. I will wear my CPAP, even though it swells my face beyond recognition. I will read my Bible daily. I will exercise daily...even if it is by myself! I will measure my food. I will get in enough protien. I will take a multi-vitamin. I will log my progress. I will make a daily schedule and stick to it. I am not waiting for the 1st of January! My new life starts tomorrow!!! :drool:

    I am so excited. We did our 10k today and it only took 82 minutes. I know to some people that can run fast, that is a slow time, but for me it is awesome. The first thing I can do to improve my time is not walk at all. I walk for a little bit every mile or so. I also could improve the time if the stop lights would work with me. :devil:

  7. Thank you both for the kind words.
  8. Has anyone had to get new insurance and found that they were denied due ti having the Lapband? They told me today I could not get insurance and I don't remember them telling me when I got it that this might be a problem. It doesn't seem like this could be the case. You do this to get better and instead they leave you high and dry. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks for any comments you might have. I am sooooo lost and upset.

  10. I am so excited. Tim and I did our 6.2 loop yesterday and we improved 9 minutes over our previous best. That is s 21 minute improvement over my first time doing the route. We are heading out today. I am so excited to see if I can improved on that. I hope that I can stay this motivated for a long time to come.

  12. Well today was the 21st day I have so longed for. We did the 6.2 mile course that we have mapped out. It was a breeze (we walked it). I hope that I am able to see the scales move soon. I gained 2 lbs. I am so frustrated. I now have blisters on my blisters (literally).
