141 lbs

February 21, 2009

OK, enough ice cream. I have to just stop buying the stuff. My size 4 jeans are soooo tight. I want to buy a new size but I promised myself I wouldn't!! I have done a workout DVD 2x's this week and I promised myself I would do it today too!! I hate getting back into this lifestyle...promising myself I will get better about what I eat and when and then nothing happens, this is why I got my band. I would like to get a small fill put back in. My hubby and I agreed we would try and get pregnant during this time that I don't have a fill (we have 3 frozen embryos still) but I just don't know that is what I want now. Our first child is 15 yrs old (16 next month), our next one (4 yrs old) and now he wants one more. I just don't think that is what I want anymore. We will be praying about this issue more!!!

I feel so good! I'm ready to stop gaining weight now!!! I need to get my eatting undercontrol or I will gain more than I want. I'm working at Horizon Resources now and have a desk job. I quite at Applebee's it seemed to get a little crazy for my family when I worked nights, my house kind of turned into a bachelor pad - all the boys doing whatever whenever :)

But with a desk job comes less activity! I can't do recess duty at the kids' school over lunch anymore because of my new job and that makes me sad.

I need to start exercising!!!!

I can't even describe how much better I feel. I realize now, it wasn't that I needed to gain weight back, it was that I needed to be drinking my protein shakes and getting some nutrition to my body! My bloodwork came back good, blood sugar, Vitamin B all that looked good. My bad cholestrol is too high, but I will work on that later :) I have gained a few pounds and feel amazing.

I went to Bismarck today and got a complete unfill. They nurse there said maybe she could leave a little fill in but I insisted we take it all out. I need some healing time right now. They took all of the fill out and then sent me to radiology for a fluoroscopy to see what everthing looked like.

The fluro went good with the barium (it went through pretty good), then the radiologist gave me a radioactive pill to swallow so he could see what would happen. It wouldn't go down, so I had to drink a bunch of water and wait 10 min. It still hadn't gone down, so we had to do it again. He was very concerned. After more water, it went down.

Dr. Aceves received the CD with the fluro on it and recommended 3 weeks on clear liquids, slowly move to full liquids, then mushie, then very slowly on solids.

Unfill here I come. I'm so tired all the time for not eating enough protein. I talked to Dr. Aceves office and they recommend a complete unfill and get blood work done to make sure that nothing is wrong.

I have been so stressed out from moving. I was doing to stay home with our youngest son, but it just hasn't worked out like that. The fastest way to make a lot of money is waitress so I have been working at Applebees a few nights a week.

Lots of stress has meant lots of swelling for my band and I'm not getting enough nutrients. I have completely stopped drinking my protein shakes and only eatting ice cream. UGH!!!
