Yup.....I'm with the band!

Welcome to my online journal of my journey from fat girl to phat girl :) I had the Lap Band surgery in 2007 and I'm closing in on my goal weight... this next year is critical in reaching this goal and moving past a lot of junk and poor habits.

I'm in love and it's not with a Man.... or a Woman! LOL! I'm in love with Beach Body and what it has helped me accomplish in the last three years. The Lap Band is not a gimmick and it isn't an unlockable Chasity Belt. It's HARD HARD work and what's made it possible for me to lose these 90+ lbs, however, slowly is Beach Body. Yoga Booty Ballet and Hip Hop Abs has given me back my girliness :)

I'll be as candid as I can without letting all my mystery :)

You'll follow me through intensive cardio training... back to basics lap bandisms, maybe an adjustment or two, the headache of what this loss does to the body (loose skin--- eww!), my support group for Lap Band and Bariatric patients both Pre and Post Op, and OH YES my 40th birthday! This won't be BORing!




I'm still not losing as fast as I would like to, but I know hat's a good thing, because the slower I lose, the better I have at keeping it off and adding tone...


Well this morning I got on the scale to 193 lbs! Wow a long way from where I started in 2007, and about 32 lbs to go!!!


So here I sit sipping on this "yummy" protein shake and ready to start my day.




Good Morning Berry Shake




1 scoop of Whey Protein (Vanilla) I used Jillian's protein


1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt


1 large strawberry




easy and not too bad tasting :)
