Monday:
Yes, I actually tried to do all of these positions...The thing with Pilates - you have to hold the position for entirely too long - so you feel the pain and think about the pain which makes you REALLY feel the pain! UGH! I try and chant in my head over powering the pain "No flappy skin. Skinny thighs. Skinny arms. Tone belly". Yeah, it doesn't really work.
Tuesday:
This muscle building class was a combo of step and weights - equally as hard but faster paced which helps with the burn a little. Well, I take that back... But at least the music was loud.
I hate them both enough to know that they are working - and love it enough to go back! Skinny arms - Here I Come!!!

I am down 45 pounds! THAT IS HUGE!!!! HUMONGOUS HUGE!
I have been more aware lately of my "sigh spot". I know that I can eat well past the point of fullness. Not fantastic - but not bad if I realise when to stop.
Exercise resumes soon. I am waiting on a friend to return from vacation and we are starting a new gym. Curves isn't doing it for me anymore. Classes here I come! Yoga, Pilates, Dance... Can't wait!

Willpower? NOPE.
All of this is in my house RIGHT NOW.
What do you think I do? I start by eating a handful of those edamame nuts, packed with protein, then wash them down with a handful of those delicious peanut butter M&Ms. Because lets face it - the M&Ms are WAY BETTER - and doesn't peanut butter have protein, too?
No wonder I can't lose any weight.

Forever the Same
I am not losing weight. I am down 4 measly pounds since January - it's April! I got a fill and dropped those 4. Then back at my plateau...
I need another fill. It is the only answer. I watch my calories, I exercise and nothing. Honestly, I haven't been to the gym in a week - what's the point? I'm not losing either way.
I know, I know, the point is to be 'stronger' 'healthier' but really, if that was all that I needed to be motivated to work out - I wouldn't have needed to get the lapband. I am motivated (at least at this point) by weight loss - or at the very least, dress size loss.
I hesitate to get a fill because I throw up a lot. Not a lot -lot, but often enough. On average, about every other day. That's enough to not want another fill. Whatever - I'm doing it. Now to find the time to drive up to Snowflake...

More than meets the eye
So I have been at a stand still. No weight loss - but NO GAIN! Even through Valentine's Day! YIPPEE!
I did however have a doctor's appointment last week and guess what? I am down 48lbs from last March! That totally counts, right? I may have only lost 35 since surgery - but I forgot about that 10lbs prior... AND THAT 10 COUNTS, TOO!
For some reason, I feel skinnier... I get a fill in 2 days, there will be fabulous weight loss to report soon!

Not Posting
I am not. I refuse. No way. No how. I will not post it on the house, I will not post it with a mouse. I will not post it here or there, I will not post it anywhere!
I refuse to post my current weight in the sidebar.
R-E-F-U-S-E!
My weight. insert throat-y disgusted gurgle There is one word for it. STUCK. Plateau doesn't describe it. STUCK. I am back up to 250 and holding.
I don't understand it. I am still losing something, my clothes are falling off. Even the skinny ones that I bought tight just before Christmas are loose.
Whatever - weight is irrelevant. Skinnier is skinner - regardless of the numbers! So my scale can suck-it!
