    Well, I am doing really good, feeling good and been told that I'm looking good also:tongue2:.
     
    Yes, I did beat my husband in the weight loss challenge!!! I got below 200 before he did, although he really did not try. I know if he would have tried he could have beat me, but he loves his junk food too much. Plus, I think he wanted me to win, thank you dear.
     
    I now weigh 196 and feel soooo good. I feel good physcially and mentally. I did try the pills from my MIL for about one week and I hated the way they made me feel. They made me feel...well, NOTHING! And I did not like that feeling. I love to play and loving on my kids and feeling alive.
     
    I have been going through my closet and cleaning out alot of my fat clothes. I can now wear an XL, how exciting is that. I used to wear a 2XL, so yeah it feels good. My principal told me the other day that I was looking good and I said "I know!"
     
    So, things are going really good and I'm very happy.

    Pity Party 101

    By lucyavery,

    Oh me oh my...it's my party and I can cry if I want too.
     
    Well, my kids are getting on my last nerve. I yelled at them this morning, then cried on the way to work because I yelled. But you know, they have forgotten all about it, I am the one that feels the punishment. My sweet little girls, I just love them so much it hurts.
     
    I have been really moody lately. Taking it out on my husband and weepy. My MIL wants me to take an antidepressent. She is a drug pusher:ohmy:. No not really, she works for a doctor and get's lots of samples. It is because the one year anniversary of my mom's passing is coming up and I'm taking it pretty hard. Let me just say it is so hard and hurts so bad. See, crying now. I just want my mom back.
     
    My weight is bouncing from 205 to 208. I am so close to being under 200 and it seems like I'm never going to get there. My DH weighs 215 and I weighed in at 208. We are officially in a race to see who can get below 200 first. I need to beat him so bad. I have never been able to beat him at anything. I want this victory!
     
    I have been working out with my personal trainer 2 days a week. I need to up my exercise at home and up my water intake. I think the lack of water in my diet may be part of the reason for my body not letting go. So, I am going to up my exercise and water. I am doing pretty well with eating the right foods and right amount. I really think water and exercise are going to help me beat him.
     
    Wish me luck

    I had my lap-band procedure on June 19th 2008. I was at my witts end trying to lose weight only to turn around and put it right back on again. I started my weightloss journey weighing in at 240 pounds. I feel like I need to say weighing in at a hefty 240 pounds from the red cornor is Lucy.........
     
    This past year, 2008 was a stressfull year for me. I lost my mom January 29th 2008. She was 61 years old and I was 35 with a 3 year old and a 1 year old. It was devastating and still is. Then I looked into the lap-band procedure after talking to one of my aunts. Since I was self-pay everything started falling into place very fast...faster than I had time to adjust to it myself. Seriously, it was only a month from the time I started the process until I had the surgery. I did not have time to wrap my head around it and worried that I was not doing the right thing. But I had prayed about and everything was falling into place, so I went for it and I'm thankful that I did. Then I changed jobs. I had wanted to go back to teaching public school for sometime. So once again, I prayed about it and God sent me right were he wanted me and I am very happy. When we follow God's plan for us, life can be great.
    So here I am 36 years old, coming up on the anniversary of my mom's passing with my now 4 year old and 2 year old. We made it through Christmas, yes it was tough at times. At one point I held a whole chocolate pie in my hands and thought...boy if I could eat you, you would be mine. Luckly, thanks to my band I only had one piece.
    Well, I am doing well, my dad and the rest of my family is doing pretty well and life goes on. I am planning on making the best of it. I have lost nearly 40 pounds and love it. I do feel as though I need another fill. So I will check into that.
    Good luck fellow bandsters.
