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.

Yep! Did it again!

Yes indeed, I still made it to the gym again tonight. I had an interruption though...all of the women's restrooms were covered up and taped off because they were going to repaint them tonight or this weekend. I tried holding it when I started to ride the bike. About 4 minutes into it, I realized the leg movements + full bladder just wasn't going to work! I asked the guys who were in the gym and the men's rooms were covered too. So I went back into the locker room and uncovered one of the toilets. Sorry guys, you really shouldn't block access to every bathroom in the building when people are still in it!

I'm really really frustrated though. I weighed myself tonight and I'm still 411.6. I was 410.8 last Wednesday. I've been working out every day since Monday and (mostly) watching what I eat. So why did I gain a pound this week? Well, 1 pound net gain, I was up to 414 Tuesday and back down to 411 Wednesday. I know I'm not working out MUCH, but come on, I'm over 400 pounds and even that little bit should have shed some weight.

I'm not going to weigh myself again until next Friday. I'm going to, as the "Shrinking Violets" on LBT say, CUT THE CRAP!, keep working out, and see what happens in another week. I'm seriously disheartened though. I've been working so hard and I don't think I'm going to make my goal by my birthday.
