Yesterday I had a great time partying the evening away. DH and I went to a friends yearly memorial weekend party and then over to another friends house for drinks and a chat on the back patio next to a blazing fire in their fire grill. It felt great to just relax for a change. The food at the party went down fine the Sangria and Cosmos were tasty. By the end of the evening I was quite inebriated (so much so that when I finally laid my head to the pillow the bed did a bit of spinning). I was concerned that I was going to have to pay for my imbibing with a weight gain but as is usual, when I am naughty or have a great need to be naughty it is always followed by a nice weight-loss. I do not know why or when the other shoe will drop and I will have to pay for the fun. As of now however I will take my weight-loss and my fun together!!
The scale read 250!! I am now down a total of 54 pounds in just about 9 months. Although it is not as fast as I would have liked it is sure a lot more successful than I have ever been in my whole life and I will take it. yayyyyy hoorrayyyyyy
The rest of the weekend I shifted a truck full of compost, planted most of our seeds and seedlings and provided the occasional hand to my husband who is building our backyard fence. Now if I can keep my grandson and the remaining cat out of the raised beds (seems to think it is a handy litter box). I will be soon seeing little seedlings rise above the dirt.
Living with a lapband after seeing goal is just as much work as getting there. This blog chronicles my journey to qualify for band surgery, my work to goal weight and now living with the band long term. Weight will always be an issue but there is a whole lot of living to be done.
