So, it has been a full two weeks since I started this thing. I met another goal today. I am now able to move the large weight on the doctor's type scale I have to use to a lower position. And I am 25 pounds down. Amazingly, I have made a few bad choices this week. But not bad enough to mess up what I have going on. Which is proof that I can do this.
Today I have an appointment wiht the doctor who did my lap band surgery last May. I plan to tell him what I have been doing and find out if the band can stay in me without using it and cause no harm. I am determined to do this without the band. I'm sure it is the absolute answer for some people. However, I am not one of those people. It just caused so much frustration and seemed to be a challenge only in my ability to "work my way around" it instead of working with it.
I bought a smoothie recipe book yesterday since there is really nothing I like to drink but water. I think it will help to have something sweet and refreshing I can drink that is also healthy for me. Today I will buy a blender. Today I will stay within my 1200-1400 calorie goal. Today I will be in control of my actions. Today I am two weeks older, 25 pounds lighter and unmeasurably happier than I was when this journey began. I can only imagine how I will feel at 50 pounds down, whenever that happens and I know it WILL.
