I hit it! My mouth literally dropped open when I stepped on the scale...199! I admit to being an obsessive weigher (trying to work on it) and I have been watching my scale bounce all over the place these last six weeks. I didn't really think I was in a plataeu, because I have not been perfect with my diet. I have however, been exercising well. All of the sudden I had a 3 pound drop out of no-where that took me below 200 for the first time in a LOOONNNGG time. My newest band observation is that while I have certainly not been perfect with my food choices, I do eat a LOT less than I used to. For instance, I have eaten a donut (not the whole box), 2 pieces of pizza for dinner (not 5-7), french fries (steal a few from my kids - not my own size L from McDonalds). I am pretty faithful with my protein everyday...the things I mentioned are little extras that I felt were keeping me from losing faster (I know they were!) but I just wanted to share my happiness about this goal! I am not perfect...if I were, I wouldn't need this band. I'm OK with that. I really think this is going to work for me...even though I'm not perfect!
