Onederland!
By S@ssen@ch,
I see that my last entry was a while ago and I've thought many times to update but I haven't really had much to say. I've been plodding along the Lap Band trail. In January I went back to Dr. Curry and had a complete unfill (yes, I've lost weight UNFILLED) due to the ongoing reflux and inability to sleep lying in a mostly laying position. I've come to realize that I was causing some of the problem by eating a little too much, too fast and the pain that I was experiencing was food stuck. Go figure. Someone who's been banded this long just learning what it's like to have something a little stuck.
I still haven't PB'd (not that I'm complaining). The last time I slimed was in the summer when I was really tight. I still get a little of the reflux if I sleep on my back and especially if I overeat. I see it as a payback for being bad.
I've started a new exercise regime. Yes, me exercising. It's kind of a cross between yoga and pilates. It's called Egoscue and it's very relaxing. I don't feel like I'm working, but man am I sore the next day if I concentrate and do it well. Sometimes as a treat, the teacher even goes over some basic Thai Chi. I'm walking better, more erect and I am so much more flexible. Which has extra benefits.:guess
If anybody's interested in what I'm eating.......pretty much anything I want. I'm following Dr. Roizen and Oz's recommendations and I've tried to limit high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils and bleached flours. So, I eat whole grains and anything that is as natural as it can get. I read labels. I have a small amount of nuts as a mid morning snack and it really does quell any deep hunger so I don't grab any chips.
