-2 lbs. I have this nasty stomach bug that has been going around. It hit me on Friday night and I still have it today (Monday)!! I went to the ER on Saturday and was there for 7 hours. I was having so much abdominal pain that I thought I was going to die. The other thing was that I had been vomiting so much that they thought it may have done something to my band. I had a CT with contrast done and found that everything was OK with the band!! What a relief. This has been a hard winter for me!! BRING ON THE SUMMER!!

Anyhow, that's about all that's new. I will post again on Wednesday!

Sorry I didn't post last Wednesday. It's been a busy week. Thanks to my friend who sent me the friendly reminder :O)

I haven't weighed myself. I have still been feeling really crappy. Haven't been to the gym for a while now... like 2 weeks I think. I have been walking... but I know it's not the same. So my focus this week is to get my butt to the gym at least 4 times and do my walking. I will post again on Wednesday.

Thanks!!

-3 lbs this week. I feel like my band is finally working for me. I am feeling full a lot longer and have even made the mistake once of eating more than I should. It is VERY painful.... so much that I won't do that again. You either have to just wait for it to go down or throw up. Throwing up isn't a good idea because it could cause the band to slip, but when you are in that situation.... it brings about almost instant relief.

My Bodybugg is my new best friend. It is great! It has really helped me to push myself a bit harder. I was definetly getting comfortable with my workout and not really pushing myself as hard as I could. My goal right now is 10000 steps a day (which is 5 miles) and at least 1 hour of physical activity. So far, so good.

Not much else to report this week. Have a good rest of your week!!
