April 1st, One yr bandiversary day
Apr 01, 2009
Well, here i am at my 1 yr bandiversary and haven't come anywhere close to my goals. I was hoping to be down a min of 75lbs to 100lbs. I'm sad to say, as of today, i'm only down 43lbs. I have lots 55lbs but in the last mth i have gained 12lbs. No, i'm not too happy about it. I have been sick more the last 3 mths then i have been healthy and it has made eating right difficult. Yes, it is somewhat of an excuse. I have not tried as hard as i could have. But you know how it is when you don't feel good, you just don't care about much of anything. I haven't been to the gym in 3 wks. although i miss it very much. I just wish my head would clear up and i could get back to life. I have a very bad sinus infection, on my 2nd round of antibiotics and another small round of prednazone. Nothing is helping my head and all i want to do is hide in my dark and quiet bedroom by myself.I'm planning on going over the mtn in the next cpl wks (if the pass clears up) to get another fill and get back into the swing of things. Oh, if only i would get well again. I feel just miserable.
This certainly isn't where i imagined i would be on my one yr bandiversary. But i'm not gonna beat myself up about it. I am thankfull that i'm down 43lbs and over all feel better then i did a yr ago. I didn't put this weight in a yr, i don't expect to take it all off in a yr. I am alot healthier now then i was then all-in-all. I can play w/ my kids, work out at the gym and not feel like i'm dying, blood pressure is normal, cholesteral is normal and just feel alot better about ME. So there are alot of possitive things that have occured this yr and i'm greatful for them all. I will get back on track and lose more weight and not stop until i get to goal. My band is a wonderful tool when i use it, and thank goodness it is always there for me. It does make the weightloss journey much easier to manage. I am one of those that is a very slow loser, and there are times that i wish i would have gone w/ the by-pass surgery. But in the long run, the band is still probably the best for me for long term results. I just have to be patient and keep at it.
