  1. Happy fathers day......So excited...actually, once again, zipped my smaller shorts that actually have button and zipper, and not only that, but am going to wear them all day....Happy Day...I have about six pair that a friend gave me that are brand new, that she never wore...She had the molena band, and lost over 100 lbs, but has gained most back...Hoping that she might have the band redone...She gave me some beautiful clothes that she had barely got to wear....I'll save them for her after I use them.....Mostly 18's and some 16's....I gave away all my smaller clothes to people in mexico when they had lots of flooding a few years backc...Thank God for these clothes..

    Well...hmmm...where do I start...was banded on march 24, 2006...today is june 14th...I'm glad I found this spot to journal...had joined richard simmons support group on the internet, but found that it couldn't really help me because I felt that I had an advantage with the lapband...felt like I was sort of cheating, when other people on the site did not have the "tool" that I have chosen to help me loose weight...Hubby also had lapband surgery the same day I did...
     
    It's been a long 7 months...After my accident in November 2005 where i CRUSHED and almost lost my arm all the way down from the shoulder...It has been a long battle for me...I am happy that I am now able to type...Broke my leg 2 weeks ago....so LIFE IS SUCH A CHALLENGE...I'm committing to writting in my journal my feelings...today was a little difficult...Have had an allergy attack so I am filling up my pouch with slime...I ate two oatmeal/almonds breakfast bar and latte for breakfast... a small amount of beef jerkey at lunch, and about 4 chips...became a little nauseated.....The doctor put me back on my diabetes meds today, so sort of feeling a little funny....ate some creamed english peas late this afternoon...I'm going to eat a little something soon, since I just took my shot....I am not craving food at all anymore....Thinking my fill is fine for now...am at 2cc....I have a 10cc band..Dr spiegel, houston texas my surgen....Am just a little under 200 lbs right now...I am trying not to weigh...Just eat to live and not live to eat....Learning that I have to eat, and eating is not the unpardonable sin...:clap2:
