At 400+ pounds, I finally pushed myself to get the Lap-Band surgery. This is the tale of how I'm trying to become the woman inside of me that's fighting to get out.

Bandiversary!

Today is my one-year Bandiversary. I also weighed myself this morning. I'm down to 406, which means a lot of things:

- I lost 9 pounds since my fill last Wednesday!
- My Bandiversary weight loss is 38 pounds--pretty disappointing, but I can't complain, considering all of the trouble I went through with fills. Hopefully I'm on the right track with my fills now.
- I'm at my lowest weight since August 2006, at which point I weighed 407. I've been upset lately that I got down to 408 at one point, but I could never seem to break that number. I'm going to try my hardest not to bounce back up!

It was storming this morning when I left for work, but it was really nice and pretty hot when I got out. I should have went for a walk, but I got out of work a little late and then I just didn't feel like it. It's supposed to rain this weekend, but the Weather Channel hasn't been the most reliable lately, so I'm going to try to get a walk in both days, and hopefully stick with it through the week.

Tuesday is a potluck at my support group, but unless I make something cold that I can keep in the fridge at work, I won't have time to make anything to take. If I can't take anything, I won't go, because that's always seem free-loady to me. I'm going to hunt around LBT later and see what I can come up with for cold foods.
