Woot! I lost some weight!

So I called my doctor's office here in town today and found out how much I weighed at my last weigh in with them. 263. Now I weigh 258.5 soooo apparently I've actually lost some weight. That is so cool! Because I felt like I was eating like a total little oinker. So this is great news!

Now that brings up an interesting concept. Think about how much food I actually had to eat to keep gaining! Oh my God, kids, I thought I was eating a lot NOW. Imagine how much I was eating THEN! Good God!

So now I gotta go to Fitday.com and find out just how far off the wagon I fell this weekend. Well it can't be that bad. Things always seem worse than they are.

Next: my First Fill
This Friday will be my first fill. I'm very excited about it. Because now the Band will start working as it should. I won't be able to eat 3 pieces of Old Chicago pizza at all. I'll be lucky to be able to eat 1. And a whole pint of Ben & Jerry's? No way in hell kids. The fill will probably bring my restriction back to where it was when I first got my Band, i.e. I could eat a HALF container of lite 85 yogurt and I was done.

I was just thinking about how much energy I had this last Saturday when I was chasing my niece. I enjoyed that so much and I was really able to move! That wouldn't have been possible at 369 pounds. I'd probably have tried, but I know I wouldn't have been able to do it. The toddler was breathing harder than me. I just felt great! Until I took a flying leap after tripping over something, lol. Yeah I've still got bumps and bruises from that, but they just remind me that I was actually able to run and play for an extended period of time without getting tired. And that feels great. :o)

Ok, look for more positive blogs in the future!

Ok, my sister has been bothering me left and right about writing in my blog.

Last night, she goes, "So have you written anything new in your blob yet?" Actually, she said blog but it sounded like blob at first. Go figure.

I know I said I wasn't going to buy a scale, but I did it anyway. I wanted to check how much I weigh. Ok, I still weigh 258.5. Hey, at least I haven't gained any weight! And that's really great because I was really eating majorly wrong. I have this internet relationship going on in my life and it's kind of fucking me up. But mea culpa, I allowed it to. No more of that! Perspective, perspective!!

Soooo let's see, last night I had Old Chicago pizza. My Band seriously needs a fill because I was able to eat 3 pieces of it before feeling full. Ok, that shouldn't have happened! lol Buuuut now I have the capability to actually go for a fill, which I will do next weekend, soooo that shall change soon. The good news though, is that I weighed myself this morning and I still weigh the same as I did yesterday. So at least I didn't gain anything! Course, we ate this pizza after I ran around a park for a while, chasing my 2.75 year old niece, lol.

Well kids, the ironing, sewing, and laundry are all waiting for me, so I will blog again later! Bye!
