What a yucky rainy day it is here in Massachusetts! Actually the whole week has been sort of gross, really cold! However I was just looking at the 10 day forecast and the temp is going to shoot back up into the mid 50's to low 60's, so thank you to all you warm climate folks for sending some my way! lol
Well as far as Mariah goes....wait...I don't know that I've ever told you this, I named my band Mariah haha. I don't refere to it as that very often but in case I do and you are like "What is this crazy woman talking about?" that is what I mean, my band! I lost another 1lb so 5lbs in 2 weeks I think is pretty good that is 2.5lbs per week and I am happy with that. My 5th fill is this coming Friday the 23rd, I really want to loose at least 3 more lbs before then. My week isn't really very crazy so I should be able to accomplish that. I really need to focus more on weekly goals I have come to feel. Even with the turkey day challenge it's just such a HUGE number I want to loose by then and if I focus on that I don't tend to do as well because I feel it is impossible. Where if I focus on 2-3lbs just Friday - Friday (because that is my weigh in day) then I seem to do much better. Anyone else find this happening to them???

Hola
So here comes week 2 after my 4th fill and the scale didn't budge this week. I stepped up my workouts and the scale just keeps going up and down a few points. I am reminding myself not to get discouraged. I assume I am building muscle and I know that sometimes this slows down weight loss but I am sure that I am losing inches and I feel great so that is what I am truly trying to focus on!
I am also getting a lot more comments lately "are you loosing weight", "you are looking really good" ect. Not a a lot of them but more than what I was getting. Pretty much no one noticed my weight loss until I hit about 22-25lbs lost. Which I am fine with because I didn't tell anyone about my choice to be banded, I told some people I was having surgery because there was no way around it. I told them I was having a hiatal hernia repaired. So in my eyes the further out they notice the weight loss, the farther that is from when I had surgery and hopefully that makes it harder to put two and two together you know?? If I had had gastric they would have all known whether I told them or not. Did you all tell people about your surgery? If you did, do you regret it? I imagine that someday I will tell some people.
