Last year when I turned 40 was the turning point for me.  I was soooo depressed.  I weighed 350 and was not happy with my life.  That is when I decided 
NOW IS THE TIME!

My life is half over and I am not going to live my 2nd half of my life like this.  I want a change and I AM GOING TO DO IT. 
  
I want to have fun and LIVE.  I am sick of sitting on the sidelines watching life pass me by.
There is so much I want to do and with all this weight--it won't happen.  So I am committed to start living while I get this fat off me.  
I deserve it.  I want it and I am going to DO IT!
This lap-band is the tool that will help me get what I want.

doing better
on November 7, 2008 6:48 pm

Alright....
You're doing better.  Thank God!
Wednesday I am definately going to get a fill.  I had my surgery at the end of June and I have had only one fill...I think he said he put in 2 cc.
I've tried to go just with that but I need to get more restriction.  I am no where near the sweet spot.
But, I am totally happy with my loss so far.  Another 50 would be great.  75 would be near perfect.  I can do it and I'm ready for my "second half".  The first 100 pounds off was a breeze.  I have been on a plateau for about a month now.  I know when I get another fill it will kick start me for my second half.  Like I said my weight loss so far has been unbelievable!!
I am so happy and proud of myself!
People are still approaching me EVERY DAY....complimenting me.  It is crazy because I have people that I don't even know comming up to me and saying that I am looking great.  I don't know them but they sure know me.  WHAT A GREAT FEELING!!
Remember the feeling!!
stay energized by it
Go Eisa....so proud of you girl!!!!
If you need encourgement--just look at the pic you keep with you.  My before picture.   What a difference!!  When people see that--they freak!!  and you know what I do too alittle.
Keep it going girl.....

OK Lisa.....we have to talk
What are you going????
I reached the 100lb mark.  100lbs off!!  You go girl!!
I am soooo proud of you.  You did it!!
People are complimenting you left and right!!  
You look great!
I feel great!
I am wearing better clothes
I am feeling better about myself
You have reached many small victories from sitting in a booth to not sweating anymore.    Congratulations Baby!!!
So....
Why are you getting cocky and not following the plan???????
I don't want to bitch you out sista but ....
have you fallen on your head????
Please don't get cocky about this.
Please don't let the old habits slither in and control you
Please get back on track!
I only had this surgery 4months ago....I have my whole life to "behave"--so please do it.

Don't let the old habits creep up on you.
Yeah, yeah....have a little mess up occasionally but what you are doing now is not little slip ups!!! and you know it!!!

Come on now....please quit this mindless carnage!!
Remember all of the good compliments !  use that for support!
remember how good I felt when Zooky saw you and the look on her face when she saw you and when she said "where's the rest of you??"
I felt so fabulous!!!!   Remember that feeling!!  Use it to help you.
Ok Baby??  Please!

no fill
on October 2, 2008 6:54 pm
I saw Doc today and decided NOT to have a fill.  He said if I wanted one he would give it to me but I decided not to.  I am still losing weight.  I am still exercising. 

Just some bad habits are slithering in and I just have to focus and I am going to start over and "kick start" my weight loss and get back into the good habits that I learned when I first got this tool. 
I am doing Ok just not as good as I could be doing.
So.....I've come so far already, I want to continue.

Another good vibe....I did NOT have to have the "big people" sleeve to have my blood pressure taken.  The "normal" sleeve fit!! 
Another small victory!!

climbed a "mountain"
on September 29, 2008 6:10 pm
I had a "long weekend" this weekend past.  I went up to "Da U.P" at Marquette and climbed Sugarloaf Mountain! 
It was EASY!! 
NO PROBLEMS!!
It was something I always wanted to do.  I enjoy the outdoors and just being outside.  I know that I would've had a really, really difficult time climbing that mountain if I still had all that weight on me.  I know it would have taken longer and I would've been sweating my ass off and probably having a major asthma attack on the way up. 
I was soooo proud of myself!  No trouble at all!    We went to a couple of other places too that we had to zig zag down a rocky, steep cliff to see some waterfalls.  NO PROBLEMS!!  GO EISA!!!

I see the Dr Thursday and I'll get another fill.  I have not been following the plan at all and I need to get on track. 
I want to keep going!!!
I have soooo many compliments flying at me and I love it!!
I have between 75 and 100 more pounds to go!!
I have to get serious again
I have experienced so much good, and positive feedback that I have to be strong and continue.
I want this sooo bad....
