Morning!

Today I'm one month out from my Lapband surgery.  I have never felt so good!  I am full of energy and look forward to getting out of bed and facing the world everyday!!  I have gone from a size 24 to a size 16.  My personal goal was/is a size 14 by the 4th of July.  If I don't hit it, I will still be happy with what I've accomplished so far.  My starting weight was 246.  I weighed 229 around my surgery date.  Today I weigh 206.  I have lost 40 pounds! 

I went back to CURVES for the first time last night.  It was great!  My plan is to go 3 - 4 times a week, depending on work.  I walked my dog, a big chocolate lab, for the first time last night.  She did better than I expected, not pulling me all over the sidewalk!  LOL  I will try to walk with her more often, otherwise, I will keep my own walking up. 

Chasing Besty on the Onederland run!

I want to thank everyone here for all of the support you've given me.  I never imagined that I would find a site that would help me through as everyone here has.  I love you guys!!  (in my best Bud Beer voice)

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!  What a wild ride this is!!! 

A friend of mine who had lap band last July just stopped when she saw me get of my car.  She has lost 150 pounds!!!!!  Just had a new band put on due to slippage from vomiting when she had the flu.  I asked what it felt like.  She said she would take a sip of water and would projectile vomit it back out!  So, now we know of this and  the chest pains as warning signals!

I can't wait to hit ONEDERLAND!
