Keep moving on...

Life has been a little routine lately which is ok.  I went in last week for a fill and added 1cc for a total of 9ccs in my band with room to go.  I still haven't really "felt" the band, but I'm still working it.  I think the things that have made me successful are planning/weighing my food as much as possible and working out at least five times a week.  It works!  I'm currently 155 pounds which is the lowest weight I can ever remember.  I don't even remember being this weight in high school, so needless to say I'm THRILLED with my progress in just seven months of being banded.

So a few NSVs....I love to shop and feel like the trendy person that's been waiting to come out is finally here...it's so fun!  I also have started to feel attractive again and have much more confidence when I'm out and about - I feel GREAT!  I'm so thankful for what the band has helped me to achieve.  I'm proud and excited to see where it's going to take me next.

In the next few months, I want to work extra hard to get to my goal of 140-145 pounds.  I really don't have that far to go, so I need to push through and make it happen.  I have a trip planned for mid-may right around my birthday, so I'd love to be able to celebrate making it to goal while vacationing with some of my best friends...I really just want to celebrate my new life!  I'd also like to start dating again.  I finally love myself and feel like I'm really ready to let someone else love me too.  I'm not sure when or how this exactly will happen, but I'm putting it out there.  Watch out 2013!
