1. I workout...start with smaller attainable goals.

I started out by walking for 30 minutes 4 days a week. Then started a workout program with my xbox kinect (EA Sports Active 2), still four days a week with some alternating walking. Once I was cleared for abdominal exercises I decided to do a one month program five days a week with the UFC Fitness Trainer game, (I lost 2.75 inches in my waist during that 30 days ) NOW I am addicted and workout 6-7 days. I do insanity 4 days and Couch 2 5K two of the other days and on Sundays I either rest or do something fun like Dance Central.

2. I count my calories with My Fitness Pal...goalseeker32 if you wanna add me

I didn't get a calorie goal from my dr or NUT so I go by what they tell me to eat to loose 2 lbs a week. Sometimes I am under that (especially now that I have gotten a fill) other days I eat all my exercise calories cause I'm hungry. I stick to the rules, Protein first, then veggies then carbs.

3. I only weigh once a week

I do not like the ups and downs that come with daily weigh ins. It discourages and frustrates me. I would rather see 2 lbs at the end of the week than .3 for 7 days.

4. I don't deprive myself of anything

I like homemade ranch dressing, and my creamer in my coffee so I use it but I count it. I allow myself small tastes of sweets when they are around because this is a lifestyle change not a diet. The diet mentality got me to needing this surgery so I have to break that thinking.

5. I take measurements monthly so I can see more progress than just on the scale.

6. When I need smaller clothes, I find a good deal and buy them because it helps me to see my progress.

Wow. So proud of u!!! Great job n thanks for the tips.

Oh...I also got my first pair if knee high boots!!! That was a very exciting moment for me

Ha ha. That is awesome. Something I hadn't done cause I don't like how I look with boots.

Awesome !!

How did you do it .. You luck great I'm banded since December but at a total stand still only down 19 lb
