The scale has been creeping up on me too -- evil unfill!!

I started keeping a food log though, so I hope that helps. I'm actually not eating horribly, but still not exercising. I'm making that a goal this week.

I did good yesterday..went out and ran a mile, then walked two. I felt really good. I haven't run in years and years and only then because I had to. But, when I've had to, that has been when I've lost weight and felt fit.

I did good all day and then ate like a pig at dinner. Raviolis...geez..I know that isn't on my list of good things. I'm losing my mind.

I really need to get that fill. I think in the morning I will try to schedule it. What the heck...just 200 bucks. HA

$200?! Wow. I would be broke by now with all the adjustments I've had over the last year!

Yep, it is quite the racket I think, but they have you as a captive audience...no one else does it in the area. Got my appointment for 9 tomorrow. I've been eating really bad.

I'm starting the five day pouch diet......I need to rein myself in and that seems to work for me. If I can manage it for the week, then I usually get back on track for a while.

Hey guys - I'm back from Mexico and no Swine Flu as of yet. I sure hope I don't get it. Can't talk long, busy at work, but did want to pop in and say hello. Bellow is my resort and me in my new size 8 black dress!

Close up of my face - even though I have only lost 10 to 15 pounds this past year, I can tell a big difference in my face.

Tonya you are beautiful. NOthing like a resort trip to make you have that extra glow!

Snowed in the past two days...couldn't go anywhere. Not so bad the first day but was/is getting on my nerves today. WE just did our first trip out...so should be able to get into town tomorrow for a meeting. We have drifts over 10 foot tall.

Tonya, I tell you this to extend your savoring of your hot tropical vacation!!

Snowed it? Wow! I thought I had reason to complain with all this rain we've gotten. It has rained every day since I got back, pouring this morning and not supposed to clear up until next week. arggggg.

But snow? Wow - being snowed in in May! I'm sure you are ready for some beautiful weather as well.

I need my sunshine! I can't take too much more of this horrible weather, I'm about to go crazy!

I have another fill scheduled for 5/18, however, I'm tight again, and been having acid reflux in the evening. I'm going to just see if I stay tight, or I could be loose by then. I hope I keep my restriction!

Tonya -- you look amazing!! :)

Well, gals, I am really hating this unfill. I'm back up to 230. It just kills me. I know what it is though -- eating out. I've eaten out more in the past two weeks than I have in the past six MONTHS!! I can't wait to get some restriction again.

On a better note... I've finally gotten my booty moving. I've been doing Jillian Michael's 30 day Shred DVD three times a week. Mari Winsor Pilates another two days. And I'm parking far at work and walking ten minutes instead of taking the shuttle. Yay me!

Juno, that is terrific. I'm being lazy this week..but I might fit in some walking. Next week though I need to up the anti.

I just got back from a "girlfriends" weekend at a hot springs resort. IT was so fun and relaxing. But the kids in the room next door partied all night..so my internal close is messed up..so I didn't sleep at all last night (in my own bed). Sheesh...

Snow is melting but we still have some huge drifts. I head out Wed-Fri for a retreat related to my work...another hot springs...some days are just good!! I am trying to convince myself that I can hit the pool with all those others...Strangers I have no problem with..my peers, that is a bit tougher.

I ate out a lot last week myself and put on 4 lbs! EAting out will do it for me everytime! I'm back on plan this week and bringing my lunch to work.

Yay! That is great! I need to get back to the gym myself. I've taken a few weeks off and its time to get it back in gear! Tonight, its the gym for me!

Snow - yuck. I need some sunshine very badley, I'm going crazy with all the rain we are having!

I totally relate, I can wear a bathing suit for total strangers, but people I know, especially my work peers, that would be hard. I'm sure you will look great though...

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
