100 Pounds Down! Officially!

I freakin' did it!!!  I am down 100 pounds as of today!  I rock my socks.  OMG.

Current weight: 163 lbs!

So close to 100 lbs down!

I'd thought my highest weight was 267, and I was going to post about my 100 pound loss...but after review, it's apparently 263.  I'm down to 166, 6 lbs away from my goal, and 3 lbs away from a total of 100 lbs!

So, for all you keeping track.. the weight loss hasn't stopped!  Even after all this time.

Current weight: 166lbs.

Update 2012

Checking in with you all, who ever still reads this.

My surgery was converted to a gastric sleeve back on the last week of March.   I lost a few more pounds.  It's easier to eat now, but also easier to eat more. 

Kinda struggling with eating right now that I have less restriction, but I'll be ok.  I have a new goal set to be at 160 in a year.  I think that's an achievable goal, as long as I don't keep backsliding.

Well, that's all for now, hope everybody is doing well! *hugs*

Current weight: 172lbs

2 Years! - Bandiversary Post

I apparently missed my 2 year bandiversary.  I'm feeling great, still losing weight.  I'm not at goal yet, but I'm working on it.  Could I try harder?  Yes.  Does it matter at this point? Not really. lol  I'll get there when I get there.  As long as I keep trying, I'll be ok.  Many of my bad habits are finally coming under control after two years of working with this thing, and I'm satisfied that even if it was gone, I'd struggle a bit, but ultimately be able to maintain where I'm at in the very least.

I may add more to this post tomorrow, I just realized that I hadn't said anything about the bandiversary yet, but don't have time to do any full on huge posts.


To all those out there that are just starting out, I know it seems hard/crazy.  Have hope.  The journey is sometimes difficult, but it's well worth it in the end!  <3

Current weight: 181 lbs

Broke the trend

I finally broke the 182 that I've been fighting for a couple months now!!

So for the last few months, I've been exercising moderately, and eating well (good portions) for the most part.  I was bouncing back and forth between 182 and 186, with 182.0, being my lowest.   I'd always think... just one more day and I'll be below 182 yay!! Then the next day would dawn and I'd jump up on the scale and bam... same or higher.

I thought I was done.  This was my lowest weight I was going to get to unless I started kicking my own butt and working out hardcore.  This was a battle I was going to have to fight.

So, for the last few days I've been eating not so much, because I haven't been hungry much.  I've had mostly good for me stuff, but I haven't been trying to clear my plate.  I've also been walking home from work because my BF has had my vehicle.  Today I woke up, and stepped on the scale, and what'dya know?!  180.8!!  That puts me at 83 pounds lost since my highest weight.   That is AWESOME.

I not only broke the 182, but the 181 too!  Maybe if I can be good another day or two I can get past the 180's altogether and into the 170's.  Wouldn't that be nice?!

Wish me luck folks!!
