Now I am too tight...need and unfill

I just had a .5cc fill on Wednesday and was on my liquids all day yesterday. All of a sudden in the afternoon, I started noticing that I was having a hard time drinking my water and when I got home I had maybe 2 or 3 ounces of shake for dinner and I had such a hard time. I kept feeling the chest pain when drinking. By the time I went to bed it was to the point that I kept feeling the need to belch, so I could feel better. So I fell asleep and then woke up gasping for air and chocking on my own saliva. After that it kept happening every 45mins or hour I kept getting that feeling. Acid reflux, dry cough, chest pain....sounds like I have the works.

So this morning I tried to drink some water and it all came right back up. I was able to get a hold of my Dr and I have an appt this afternoon at 3pm as he is in surgery all day. I am so hungry and thirsty, but I can't drink anything. This has never happened to me before. I can't lie down because I start choking. So not fun!

It's our 1 year Anniversary!!! The band and I and a 5th fill...

1 year ago Today, my band and I became one! 96lbs down and really close to goal!!! I can't ask for anything better than that! It has been an amazing journey and it went really, really fast! I really never felt like I was on a diet. I ate what I wanted, I just tweaked it so it was a healthier choice.


My doctor has given me a goal weight of 150 lbs, so that means I have another 15 more lbs to go. I may move it to 145 to have that 5 lbs flexibility, but we will see when I get there. With that said, he gave me another 0.5cc fill to help me.

I have also reached so many NSV's along the way that before the band, I could only dream of. So here is a list of my accomplishments.

* I am currently at my high school weight.
* I can cross my legs not only once, but twice! I can do the wrap around! lol
* I'm a size 10. Something I have never ever been...not even in high school.
* I can go for a run without feeling like I'm gonna die! Actually, I had not ran since I was in Jr high! no joke!
* I fit in restaurant booths with plenty of space.
* When riding in the back seat of my Honda, I don't have to worry about the seat belt not fitting. It doesn't feel like it's choking me anymore.
* When we go to Disneyland, I no longer worry that I won't fit in the rides. I have plenty of space.
* I don't have to walk sideways in isles.
* My Heel pain is gone.
* My knees don't crack as often.
* The clothes on me do resemble somewhat the display.
* Energy is up 100%
* I'm no longer obese.
* I shop in normal people stores! Good bye Lane Bryant!
* I am alive, healthy and skinny!

Thank you to all my followers! You have cheered me on through my journey and thank you to my husband who reminds me how sexy I look everyday!

until next time ♥xoxo♥

Here are my 90lb weight loss pics..better late than never

I ran for the first time!!!

Ok, so I need to get my Mojo going which I just blogged about earlier today. So I got my butt up and went for a walk with my friend at work and she said, "What if we do a little run", so I said what the heck....I was able to run and guess what....I was not dying! I was so proud of my accomplishment that I had to blog about it!

No mojo!

So the scale isn't moving and it's just not making me happy. With that said I'm starting to loose my mojo and I'm not happy with that. I'm beggining to fall back on old patterns of eating behavior and it upsets me that I am even thinking of going back on that route. And not that I am eating extremely horrible, but I'm not watching my food 100% like I was. I am currently weighing 168.6 lbs and I have been there for a while. It's a dissapointment when I have been averaging 10-12 lbs a month and in the last 3 months I have lost 10-12 in total. It is also due to the fact that I am so close to my goal, that it may make me feel like I can splurge here or there since I'm almost there. I really want to hit my 100 lb weight loss by my 1 year band anniversary next month on the 17th.

So far I am trying to walk on my lunch break to add that little extra workout and hope it helps. I really hate the winter because it puts me in a hibernation state. Even though here in Southern California it's not snowing or any major weather issue that would stop me from going outside, but 54 degree weather for me is freezing ok..lol. I just hope that writing and reading your responses telling me to get my ass up and go will help me a bit. I need 8 more lbs to reach my goal...I need to get there....at this point it looks like I will be crawling there LOL....

until next time ♥XOXO♥

New Years Eve and marking my 90 lbs loss!

What a way to ring out the Year with 90 lbs gone forever! Now I start 2011 with new clothes, dreams and goals that do not seem at all unattainable. I'm glad 2010 is over, but I take nothing but learning experiences from it and a huge satisfaction for what I have done with myself. Hope you all had a great time welcoming the New Year 2011 and will keep in touch!

XOXO Til next time ♥

Just call me Little foot!

Ok so not only have I been losing lot's of weight, but along with that I have to buy new shoes!!! I used to wear a size 8 1/2 or 9 depending on the shoe and now I am a size 7 1/2. I have a ton of cute shoes and now they are too big for me? =(

I love the fact that I can wear heels for much longer periods of time without feeling the loss of circulation, but now I have to keep buying new shoes. Love the NSV, but my wallet does not seem to like it.

On another note I want to wish my Hubby a Happy Anniversary...14 years of being together through literally thick and thin! lol! Love you Babe!♥

until next time! ♥XOXO♥
