I started losing weight , ohhhhhh a year and a half ago. 50 so far. 66 MORE to go!
Is it coming off fast? NO.
Is it supposed to? In my mind yes. In reality no it isnt. But thats OK. Every lil bit helps.
Do I want it to come off fast? Well ya, sure. Who doesnt? Well, sorta maybe,lol.
I read another blog about a guy that has lost 200 pounds,,,,hes got a great blog by the way. Great sense of humor, great writings, honest and up front about the whole thing. I like reading his blogs and will definatley continue to do so, they help. Im sure 200 pounds DID NOT come off over night. My 66 more pounds wont either.
BUT, today is all about being spotted. "Hey Beck you lost weight!" "Beck , how are you losing it?" " What are ya doing?" "You following Atkins?"
Ugh, I havent told anyone about my Band, none of their business, plus I dont want the drama that goes with the ones that dont agree with it.. But as soon as that person noticed my weight loss,,,I immediately went back to my old habits, it REALLY SUX! You wait all that time for someone to say "hey lookin good, your losing weight" and then bang,,,I get all nerved up and start gaining it back! there is NO reason for me to feel pressure from others. They have no expectation of me. Right? UGH, tell my selfconcious that. When someone notices me losing weight, I always sabotage myself. Anyone else out here do this? So alllll of last week I ate very unhealthy food. I have not been on the scale this week, So I dont know if I gained any back. I also have not worked out,,,bad very bad. Working out is a KEY to losing weight, even a little bit of excercise helps in the beginning becasue a little becomes more and more until you build up your stamina and can punch a 30 to 60 minute workout into your day.
TODAY, I will hold myself accountable to you,,,yup you. If your here looking for tips , or just looking for someone who is doing what your doing this is a good thing. I know I can do this, I just had a little slip. You ever slip a little? Jump back on, get a grip on it and go.
My next goal, 190 pound mark! I feel better already.
Have fun and CHEW CHEW CHEW!

Weight is coming off slowly, but surely. It didnt go on over night and it aint coming off that way either. Like you said, yea, i want to to come off quickly too.
My only frustration is eating food. This band had taken all the joy of eating away. I am constantly having to rid myself of lodged foods. Did you have these problems as well? I am at a loss as what to eat that is healthy.. raw carrots get stuck, bread gets stuck, chicken gets stuck.... it SUCKS! Will it get better? I can only hope so! I really need help with this issue.
I also joined weight watchers in February to help my loss journey. Slow, slow slow!
thanks!
