    Okay, it has been a really long time since I was on this site. I have been super lazy lately. Basically, my loss has completely stalled because I haven't been exercising. I still have 30 lbs. to go. I am determined to lose that before my 2 year anniversary. The trouble is my old food demons are coming back to visit. I'm tired and stressed and worried about the future and all of that makes me go in the pantry and eat. :thumbs_up: I'm hoping that by coming back to my blog (last time I was here it was a journal) regularly will help focus me again.

  3. Hey y'all It has been a while since I posted on this site. I'm looking for someone to go rollerskating with me. I have been really (really) lazy lately. Roller skating is fun but I want a lap-band buddy to help me get back on track. Does anyone live near Duncanville, Texas?

    Okay, I got my last free fill yesterday. Dr. Jay gives free fills for a year after surgery. My year is up on August 4. I doubt I'll need another fill before then. I'm on liquids until Wednesday. I got another CC put in. My total fill level is now 11cc. I hope it works for a long time, since now I'll have to start paying $150 for each fill. I'm going to take a road trip to visit my grandmother soon. I'm taking my bicycle with me. She lives out in the boonies, so there isn't much else to do.

    I've got some 10 months pictures to share. Of course my 10 month anniversary was almost a month ago. (Can you really say anniversary if it hasn't been a year yet? Ahh, etymological puzzles, how I love them. And yes, I am a geek, why do you ask?) Okay. In the pics. I am wearing size 14 jeans and a 1x t-shirt. Sorry the pic is kind of blurry. I don't know what was going on with my photographer. She's usually pretty good. Oh well, no big deal. Just as long as my 1 year anniversary (which is a real anniversary, but I digress) pictures turn out in focus. I've also got a Century Club card. You get the card for losing 100 lbs. I got it from someone on another website (www.obesityhelp.com) I suppose really you could get one no matter how much you've actually lost. Its not a real club, it is just a cool graphic. Okay, gotta go. I've got a book report due today that I haven't finished. The report, not the book. I read the book already. Just want to make that perfectly clear.

    Hi Its been awhile. I've been lazy both in updating this journal and exercising. I just haven't felt like doing either. Work and grad school are taking up just about all of my time. When I'm not doing grad work, I'm thinking about doing grad work. I don't have much brain capacity left.

    I hadn't realized that it had been so long since I've updated my journal. Well, there really hasn't been all that much going on. I just got another fill two days ago. I think this was my 6th. and I forgot to ask Dr. Jay what level I'm at. Oh, well. I'll try to remember to ask next time. I'm sneaking up on 100 lbs. lost. Since I have to be on liquids for the next 4 days, I may make it. That is if I can keep myself from cheating too much. I've pretty much stopped going to Curves. Maybe I'll pop in there from time to time if I'm bored, but not regularly. As soon as my contract is up, I'm not renewing. Its a nice starter gym, but I think I'm ready for something else. Maybe after I'm no longer paying Curves monthly, I'll look into getting a treadmill or an ellipitcal. I do an elliptical at the rec. center near my work (its free). I like it. That's all the news I have.

  12. Are the journals gone or am I just missing the button?

    Hey y'all, I've been delaying my weekly journal entry so I could have my monthly Curves report in it. I finally got the time (and energy) to go over there today. I didn't work out hard though, my back is just miserable today. I've just noticed that I didn't post my Curves report from last month. Oh well, I'm not going to go back and do it now. ................................Last month.............................Now Bust........................44 in........................................43 in. Waist.......................41 in. .....................................41 in. Abdomen...............47 in. .....................................45.5 in. Hips........................44 in. .....................................43 in. Thighs....................51 in. ....................................49 in. Arms......................29 in. ......................................29 in. Body fat %.............38%........................................37.40% My arms just will not get any smaller!

  15. I have to lose at least 30 lbs. more before I'll even consider thinking about possibly buying a bathing suit. 30 lbs. less than my current weight is what I was in high school. Those mandatory swim classes were a nightmare!
