Last night I went to Vandy for their seminar in WLS! I thought I was all for this LAP BAND system! But after last night I am not, infact, I think I will just go back to the old fashioned way of exercise and cutting calories! I did not realize that if you took the reversable band out you would gain all your weight back! So why do the bother calling it reversable in the first place! If you want to pay for the surgery and stay thin you have to keep it in for life! Oh well, I need to just COMMIT to exercise at this point in my life, I know how important exercise is, I just hate to do it!

GOAL: It is Wednesday and I know I can exercise two times in the next three days!

Well today I walked outside for what I hope was 20-30 minutes! only problem I kept stopping to talk to neighbors! But I could have chosen to not do it at all right! I am cutting food in half, okay not half but I probably eat 2/3rds now instead of all of it and I know that has to cut some calories! I just need to stay in this mind set, thats all!

Raisin Bran 12pts
Milk 3pts

Okay so I ate a lot of Raisin Bran, I will pay for it later with its high fiber content! tonight I am making Chicken enchiladas! I will just have to go easy on the cheese! And make a salad!

Sausage, Egg and cheese mcgriddle 13.5 pts
coke 3.0 pts
Lean Cusine 5.0 pts

As of right now I have 10 pts left and I want a fajita taco salad really bad! I think I am going to go ahead and eat one, since I exercised today and got two points for activity!

Well I am dreaming about dieting and exercising so I think that may mean I am ready! I decided to add up my points for today! I believe I can eat up to 32 pts a day and I am right at 32 for today! I had my two dairy products and I finally got most of my water in! Good Job with the food today, although I need to choose fruits and veggies now! I have had too many carbs today!

Tomorrow Mom and I are going to the Y to look into membership again! Hopefully this time, I will go more than once a week! With Mom we should go at least 3 times a week!

I am so glad I have made the decision to make a change for the better! I am tired of carrying around this extra weight! Its no joke that it weighs you down, in more ways than one!

Well lets see, since my last post I have had my anniversary, gone to FL, and had Caleb's birthday and then tomorrow is the Meet and Greet! So How am I doing on the food? Well lets have a clean start on Monday or I will even go for Saturday! And then I am going to do the only thing I really know how to do and succeed! Count Points! Any WW's people in the house?

Last night I went to the store to buy the good food I will need to start today! I am about to go and have my breakfast in a minute which will be one fruit, one milk, and one small bowl of cereal! I need to remember to eat snacks so I don't get hungry and to drink lots of water! More later!
