Stomach Upset!

This is one of the do not do of having a lap band, do not it bread with an egg! For me at least, it does not work out! It gets stuck on me, now it could be because I did not chew it enough or eat a small enough bite,  not sure what the problem is. I have tried a few times to eat certain thing and most of the time it does not go well! All lap- bander are different, what works for some does not work for others! Oh well I guess it will continue to be a learning experience!

Lap Band! For me it is the best!

Around 3yrs ago I decided to get a lap band, which in my opinion was one of the best things I ever did! I have no regrets at all, on the other hand my husband and son feel I should of done it naturally. I tried numerous times to do it with no results at all!  My will power was not good! One day at 250 lbs I was getting out of my car and my knees were killing me. I was 50yrs old and felt like 65, every part of my body was aching me. I said that, day if I do not do something for myself I was going to be in big trouble. That is when my journey began!  With a lap band, if you are over weight you know you have to always eat small portions. When you first get it your mine is not always in sinc with your new way of eating. That is really what caused my family to not be happy with the band!  I was throwing up way to much and they were afraid for me and what I could possibly be doing to myself! I decided to write about this so if I could help people understand what not to do with the lap band versus what to do with it!  I am still working on all that even 3 yrs later!  But I am one happy women right now! At least I know my next 25 or 30yrs of my life will be the best quality of life I could have given myself! Instead of feeling 65, I feel 30. Being overweight really does weigh you down not only physically but emotionally.

My son is such a good kid!

I am blessed for sure, He is one of the most family oriented kids in the world. At his age when all kids want to go hang out with friends, he loves to be with all the family. I am one of the lucky ones for sure. I do not know what we did to be blessed with having a child that is as good as Robbie.  He has learned by example of what not to do, so that has helped. I remember when I was Rob's age I was not bad but I did love to be with friends quite a lot. I have to say tho I was always at family get togethers and my mom brought us all up to know that family is always number one.  In this day and age it seems to me that it really is not like that anymore. I thank God each and every day for Rob and he has made our life complete, thats for sure!

It reads, I quote: You like to know that you're improving, and you'll see the tangible evidence of that today. You also welcome the chance to go back and correct yourself. : I have to say this one stomps me LOL. Improving on what, what I do, you do not have to be a rocket scientist to do. I am in a one women office and that's me and me alone. I always correct myself there is no one else to do it, that's for sure!  I love what I do, but being told I do a good job is not in the book for me!  I just have to know I am good at what I do, which is fine by me!  No pats on the back here folks!
