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.

Day two of the pouch test...going good. Sometimes my resolve amazes me...where does it go on the other days?

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.

Thank you!

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!

Glad you had fun, but I'm with you, I need my sleep!!!

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...

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
