10 months post op

OMG Its been 10 months since my surgery. Time flies on by doesn't it....A lot has changed since I last wrote on here. Like i said it's been 10 months since surgery almost 6 months since I last wrote on here. I just went to my regular doctor yesterday and go ton the scale I'm officially the smallest I could remember right now. I'm down 58 lbs now, I'm down to a size 10 in pants and 167 lbs. I have another fill appointment coming up in about 3 weeks from now. I feel so different then i did before i had this surgery. I have way more energy and more self- confidence. I have more thrive to do things and go places. I've rewarded myself with getting my nails and toes done, tanning and haircuts. I don't want to sound like I'm a hot head but i feel pretty good about myself. When i look in the mirror I don't quite see a full change quite yet but when I look at all pictures I can see the difference. Just by looking at my old pictures I can feel like my chest is tight and i feel the out of breath i used to feel at that weight. Bronson is deployed, i cant wait to finally enjoy more of life with him when he comes back in a couple of months. I can only hope I'm ta my goal weight when he returns. I have about 2 1/2  months left of him gone and about 20-25 lbs left so get to my goal my doctor and i set a while ago.
I just wish I could have th etime to work out more

Its Been forever!

Hi everyone, It's been forever since I last posted anything on here.. The end of June to be exact. Its now the being of August and I'm officially reporting that my weight has not changed at all lately. I've seem to hit a Plato and my weight is not changing at all. Its very upsetting actually. I feel good about the weight lost and more confident however I want more gone lol... I recently went through my closet and got rid of all my FAT clothes. Until I tried them on I didn't really realize how big I really was. The clothing that I had that was tight even at my biggest is now super bagging on me. (Pictures to come). I am trying to remain positive over this experience however I just want to see the numbers move faster in a downward effect. I will be getting my 2cd fill adjustment coming in the next 2 weeks. I HOPE and I PRAY that this will change my weight again.

Measurements

Another 8 1/2 inches off  my body.... I LOVE THE WAY THINGS ARE CHANGING!

From Last measurements .... I LOST
1/2 ' from my Left upper arm
1 1/2' of my breasts (Thank God LOL)
Belly button 5"  (OHHH YYEAH BABY) :-D
Hips 1'
Left thigh 1/2'

Less keep this up for real.... it feels soo good.. actually I think I'm going to go to the gym right now!

Been a while.....Now an update

So it's been a while since I last updated on here.. As far as weight goes not much has changed, I had some car troubles so getting in for my first fill was hard. Today I managed to get a ride and got it done. First and foremost let me say that felt weird! I found out that I had 1.5 CC in my band from surgery and now with this fill I have a total of 4.5 CC in my band. I still have room to grow but hopefully I hit some restriction with this amount now. Before this fill i had no restriction, I could pretty much eat everything as normal. Today I got full on water (LOL) that should tell you something right there. This is working! I am just now starting to see a little difference in my appearance. My clothing is a bit big now and I'm starting to fit back into my skinny clothes I had before I got pregnant and had my son 3 years ago. Pretty soon (I hope) i will need to get rid of all my clothes I have now and buy knew ones.. That will be fun! Now that I got my fill I will be trying to eat a little bit more healthier and continue working out hard like I have been. I'm on a mission and nothing is going to stop me! Update on pictures and measurements to come.... stay continued~

Before and After picture update after 27 lbs GONE!

4-25-11 Night Before Surgery.

 6-15 27 lbs down!

Can you see the difference? I can, My clothing is starting to fit me very close to falling off of my waist. I'm starting to see the difference for myself, and it feels GREAT!... My weight in numbers havent changed much in the last week but I know I'm losing inches so i'm ok with all of that. Still waiting to get my first fill on July 1st, so the weight will be falling off quicker after that hopfully!....

I'm not losing as much as I would like...

Not much has been going on lately. I've been a little stressed and hungry more often. I am due for my fill and am waiting for my car to get out of the shop so i could get it done. I've only lost a pound in the last couple of weeks. I should stay positive and think "hey at least I lost and didn't gain anything". The weight is falling off in the right direction it's just not coming off in the time i would like to want it to fall off. I have been struggling to get into a workout routine and find things that motivate me. I'm trying to stay positive and keep things going in the right direction. I'll update you again when i get my fill and do my measurements update again, Maybe ill do pictures to see my progress from before surgery to now 27 lbs lighter.

Staying the same.....

Well it's been a while since I've seen a change with the number on the scale. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little upset. I have to wait till the 13th for my first fill, I just hope I don't gain any in the mean time. I have No restriction and so far my band can handle just about everything I eat. Considering I haven't felt "stuck" yet. One time about two weeks ago I thought I was stuck when I swallowed a piece of melon without chewing it right, but everyone says that if your stuck you will know you won't have to think about it. I've been so bored lately and have been having cravings a lot more lately since I feel hungry and can eat just about anything. Having this surgery was just the first step in a life long journey. My band is just a tool that is suppose to help me lose weight. However it is just a tool and I have to use that tool to its best advantage. My mind and head hungry has to be in the right place for this to work.
