  3. Hi Carrie!!!! Yea i haven't been on here in forever either!!! I'm doing good. Got my weight to under 200 lbs for the first time in my adult life. Just kind of been maintaining my weight lately. Work is going good. Home life is going good. Ditched my boyfriend. Been out on a couple dates since but haven't found anyone. Just weirdos! lol. Are you still in Illinois? Hows that going?

  4. Hey Heather, it's been a while since I've been on the site, just checking in to see how you're doing!

    WAY off track and can't find my way back!!!

    Start to get the food part under control (do what you need to do) whether it's get a fill or seek help for food addiction. Most importantly start working out again! Now that spring is here take those 4 babies out for a nice long walk or walk up to a park or something like that. Then once you get your "work out feet" moving again amp it up!!!! You can do it!! Take it 1 day at a time. I got off track on my work outs too for months and i'm finally back at it and I work out 3-4 days a week. I take a free step aerobics class that is being offered at the local community center and the other 2-3 days i'm on my own. It's not quite warm enough for me to take my dog out for walks yet (I live in Michigan) but I have different videos that I rotate. Good luck getting back to it, after all you didn't lose 80+ lbs for nothing!!

    Regrets

    Hell to the NO! I do not have a single regret! I am over 2 years out and I feel great! I regularly exercise and I'm healthy. I am 50 lbs away from my goal weight and it's totally been worth it!!! I am a much happier person.
  9. Welcome to LBT and congrats on making the decision to change your life for the best!!!

    On my way!

    Welcome to LBT congrats to you on your decision to lose weight!! The pureed stage was hard. I failed at this stage. I primarily ate "soft" foods. Like pudding, jello, mashed potatoes, cooked carrots (mashed) that kind of stuff oh and scrambled eggs. Good luck to you! Your next few weeks will be rough but it will be totally worth it!!! This is a life changing surgery (for the better of course) and you will be going through alot of changes in the next year as you begin your journey.
  11. Dang girl!!!! You look frickin' awesome!!! Congrats on the 150 lb + weight loss!!! You are truly an inspiration to those of us trying to get to our goals!!!!

    Tired of unwanted advice

    I am definitely glad that everybody has been supportive of my decision. It would be tough about being surrounded by people who think they know better. Kudos to you for taking this step and getting the lapband to change your life. It has definitely changed mine!! I am 50 pounds away from my goal weight and cannot wait to get there! I am loving my life!

    Thank god I am not the only one! I am constantly cold! I can work out and within 2 minutes of working out I am cold again.
