Mental Note to self
Ok I have lost a lot of weight and have been feeling like I am in my 20's. I decided to change a light bulb instead of asking my hubby who is 6'5" to do it for me. I climb up on a chair to change no problem, decided to jump down off of chair, not a smart idea, I injured my left leg.
It was diagnosised as a hamstring pull, that was August 25th and still not getting better saw my Dr. yesterday and he seems to think I have some major problems going on may have injured my spine and the pain radiating down my leg. October 15 I will be having a MRI. so please keep me in your thoughts.

1 year Anniversary from Lapband
Today is my sorta new birthday(bandiversary) I was given new life and outlook. I reflect back to where I was and where I am today. I no longer need oxygen 24/7 unless I have a real bad episode of shortness of breath which I am now because of a lung infection but that too will pass.
I no longer need a walker to assist me around the house, and out and about. I was hoping to be at a 100 lb loss but 90 lbs is a good start for the first year and hope another year another 90 lbs. I am still fat but not as fat but I will prevail and become lighter and hopefully more healthy
Its been a wonderful journey so far.

Things are fine
I saw my surgeon for my yearly check which is a few weeks shy of 1 year will be 1 year August 31, I have 10 lbs to go to achieve my 100 lbs lost, and I am struggling. I am losing inches right now but not weight grrrrrrrrrrrr.
I will take it though, I have gone from a size 30/32 to size 22/24 and that in itself is an accomplishment. I love going to stores and shop now and not be afraid to try on clothes. My breathing has improved and taken pressure of both heart and lungs. I still have to take breathing treatments 4 times a day but that is basically for the asthma and alpha 1 lung diease, but I am only on oxygen 12 hours vs 24 hours now. My lung capacity has not worsened thats a good thing, course I will never get the 30% loss back because this diease is a herditary diease but we have gotten it early and treating it thank the good lord for that miracle.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend
