Beulah Babe Banded
HI all!!
I visited here awhile back before getting approved & getting my lapband. There was not much going on over here so I kinda stopped checking.
I thought I would update everyone on how I am doing. I had my surgery on 12/11. At that time i weighed 212 after loosing 22 lbs the 2 weeks preop. Since then I am down 41 lbs & ever so happy. I am not skinny by no means but I feel good. Thats truly what I wanted was to feel good & to get healthy.
I currently dont have restriction but hoping that will change on Tuesday when I get my 2nd fill. the weather has been so horrible that every time I have an appointment I have to reschedule (they only do fills on monday/tuesdays).
I am mostly proud of myself. Without restriction I have been determined to eat healthy. I have had some bumps along the way but overall done an amazing job. My biggest change ever is thath I work out 3-4 days a week at the gym. I easily spend an hour there during cardio & weights.
Pictures are on my profile.

Congrats!!
I can hear how proud you are in the words you type!
Spring will so be in the air and more outdoor activities will be available. I myself look forward to that. I get tired of the gym, the stinky men at the gym,the eyes that stare LOL Ok, all that might be over board but its true!
Keep us posted and stop around at least every couple weeks! LOL I try to keep things moving on here.
Best wishes and keep up the good work!!

Congrats to you! Sounds like your tool is working as planned!
The ND board seems to be a bit boring, but Tinkerbell is doing a fine job of getting something posted every once in awhile! I am not very good at blogging, however, will try to do better at it. It is nice to meet people that are local and can give advice! I have had a couple bumps lately myself and am thankful for the Fargo support groups. Obesity Help main board is also a big help.... keeps me on my toes! I read some of the terrible stories and thank god I am cruising along quite well!
Well, nice to meet you and stick around... never know, we might just get this board going yet!

I actually love the gym & being that I go at 9:30 in the morning everyone is gone & me & my friend have the place all to ourselves. Its not that way because our kids play in the playroom alone (free childcare) & we can do whatever we want & can try new things without feeling embarassed that so & so is watching. And as a plus size girl with some large breast (well they are shrinking) I dont mind running,,,if people were there I would.
