OK, so I fell off the wagon for a while. Life has been so tumultuous...work, home life, love life has all been both challenging and rewarding but stressful all the same. In the midst of all of it, I had to get port revision surgery, was too tight and miserable then I was too loose and used it as an opportunity to take a "band holiday" as my PA called it. Even now, although I had one adjustment, I am still pretty wide open and I have been choosing all the wrong things.Tonight for instance it was a chicken strip dinner from DQ. Good lord, if I am at good restriction there is no way I could eat that. I just can't seem to find the reset button.
Well, perhaps I took a step in the right direction tonight. I watched the premiere of Biggest Loser and I was given a good wake up call. To see the women who weigh 250 some pounds and to realize that I am not that far from that. Although I have made awesome progress, I AM NOT DONE YET! Today the scale read 207. So much for being in onederland--but I can get back there, if I work at it. I went to the gym and worked out for 30 minutes. It's a start! I am going to try to get back to basics again and start following the rules I know work.
I have another fill in October and I will just need to behave myself until then. I really just need to refocus on losing weight and helping my pants fit better! I know all the right things to do, I just gotta do 'em!
It sounds like you have a good handle on how to manage until you get another fill. Keep focussed and stay determined. You can do it!
ReplyDeletei must admit i enjoy a band holiday as much as the next guy. the trick is not to let it go too far. before the band when i went on holiday it lasted for months and sometimes years. now i can get a grip on it. i'm sure you will too.
