Coming up on 18 months

Apr 09, 2009

I'm quickly approaching the 18 month post op point this weekend, and am also having a birthday on Sunday. I have bounced up between 3-5 pounds from my lowest weight ... this all happening in the last 3-1/2 months. It's so much easier to battle these 5 pounds than 25, 50, 75, etc. I am battling the Starbucks and snack monsters. It doesn't matter, come to find out, that a snack is a "safe" snack if you keep reaching for it. It doesn't help that I am bored to tears at work and I often reach to put something in my mouth when I'm bored. The weather is starting to get better around here, so my ambition level is slowly rising. I didn't work out at the gym as often as I should have and am now starting to institute the habit of going at least 3-4 times a week. I'm hoping that the habit will stick this time, but am also a realist ... I know that no matter if this becomes habit or not, it is something that I MUST keep up. It's just my way of life from now on.

I keep checking up on "my friends" here and it looks like you all are doing great. If you need me, just shoot me a message.

Cindy
