  1. NEW DAY

    I haven't written here in a while, so I figured that it was about time.
    I have been sticking with Atkins, no more than 20 carbs a day. I have been walking for 2 weeks now I believe and I just love it. If I don't go, I feel like I am missing something. I am noticing that my butt is tightening up and the scale certainly isn't moving up. I have a fill scheduled for the 23rd and I am curious to see how I will be after that.
     
    I have had Pink Eye since Monday morning and I haven't been wearing makeup so as to not infect my makeup, and it sucks!!! I feel so nakid! Hopefully that will be cleared up soon.
     
    Today's weigh in: 288.2
  2. 01/20/06

    Thank goodness the scale move a tiny bit! :mad: I have been faithfully doing this stair thing and I think that in a few weeks I will be able to see results. I didn't do any other exercises last night though. I was just tired. My DH didn't get home until later and we were playing with the baby, so I just didn't feel like it.
    I know, excuses, excuses.
    At least I have been eating better. I am really trying to stay low carb now. The low cal thing has never worked for me, and now if I can just follow the bandsters rules and eat protein, veggies and then fruit, I will be ok.
    I need to go and do my stairs, but I think I will wait until after lunch so I can do it without anyone seeing the fat girl almost die :0 ) hahahah

  3. No Scale Today

    Well, today I fought the temptation to get on the scale! I have been working my ass off and I really hope when I get on the dang thing that it shows some results.
    I just feel like I am stuck, like I always get after 30-35lb weight loss and I wonder if I will ever be normal.
    I thought I needed a fill, but today at lunch I didn't eat much at all and had PLENTY of restriction. I guess it is because I am eating the right things... Hamburger Helper slips right thru my band so I am staying away from it!
     
    Well, today was day 4 of taking the 4 flights of stairs at work! Ugh, will it get easier? I just can not wait to put that pair of size 20 jeans on that I bought. I will know that I lost weight when I can fit into them!!!
