The last month I have learned a little more about this whole "band" thing. First of all, I just had my 4 month appointment and I am now down 40.6lbs! Hurray!!! I am so proud of myself. The past month was definitely the most difficult so far, and I'm glad I seem to be acclimating to the process and rules somewhat well.
During my appointment today, we decided to leave my band where it is for now. I am experiencing some obstruction which means that I need to take smaller bites and be careful about the food I am consuming. Since I had a substantial loss, it was a mutual decision to leave the band as is for the next month. I'll probably have an adjustment in April, which is fine :)
Exercising has been sporadic. I've only been to the gym once this week. It's been a rough week for me, emotionally and I just haven't had the motivation to go work out. I definitely need to change my frame of mind. My goal for next week is to go to the gym 3 times. The following week, I'll aim for 4 times. It's harder than I thought to get into an actual gym routine. Maybe I would exercise more if I had a treadmill at home. Hmmm. That's something to consider.
Anyway! I went through my closet last Friday and put all of my "fat" jeans in a pile. John asked if I was going to make a quilt of denim . Hardy har har. I'm actually thinking about reselling some of them. I figure fat girls need jeans, too - right?
Until next time, stay skinny Kansas City. (Month 4 pictures will come tomorrow or Sunday.
