I have never yet gotten into onederland. :( What's sad is that I was 215 about two or three months before my August vacation, and I was SURE I'd be in onederland by the time we left. Nope. :/<br /><br />If you can get me off my big mooshy butt and working out again, I'd appreciate it. LOL Actually, I'm going to start tomorrow. I'll ease into it with the 17-Day Diet's program, where you do two 17-minute workouts a day. It's too cold to walk, so I have to do something in my basement.<br /><br />I did the diet plan today and I think I did really well. As much as I hate to admit it, I do much better on a plan of some sort instead of left to my own devices.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04709345711323446312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496698320920768554.post-18921478836032551082011-01-21T21:49:12.913-05:002011-01-21T21:49:12.913-05:00You can do this! I'm rooting for you! It sucks...You can do this! I'm rooting for you! It sucks when you get on the scale and its 20, 30, 40, 50 pounds higher than your lowest banded weight. That was me in September. 50 pounds heavier than my lowest weight. But same as you, I just resolved to get back on it. In September I was 258. Today I'm at 195. If I can do it, you can too!! If I can help in any way, then please let me know!!Violinist with a Bandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13372786080547081517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496698320920768554.post-90262749965991045032011-01-21T18:59:23.333-05:002011-01-21T18:59:23.333-05:00It IS irritating.

My mom mentioned the other side effect of not taking care of yourself while diabetic is vision loss. She has two friends with diabetes who are going through that now.<br /><br />I guess the biggest thing that hit me as I wrote this is, if he/they don't care about his health (cuz the wife just kinda rolls her eyes and says, "I know, you're preaching to the choir," yet she buys him crap and suggests eating out all the time), they sure as HELL don't care about mine. It's really that simple. I refuse to let them upset me about this anymore.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04709345711323446312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496698320920768554.post-36333813182005258552011-01-21T18:24:22.142-05:002011-01-21T18:24:22.142-05:00I'd feel so irritated too - and you just know ...I'd feel so irritated too - and you just know that the day he faces an amputation he'll wish he had listened to his body telling him to stop. I'm also insulin dependent since my forties and I have been known to eat what I shouldn't and just up the insulin dose, but not since I've had the band. In Argentina where the icecream is to die for I would probably have done so if I had stayed long enough... When I got home I had all sorts of side effects which I knew were the result of having daily icecream for several weeks, and thank goodness I'm not that keen on icecream in the UK.<br /><br />Well done on losing a bit! It's that first step which is so hard (and I have yet to take).<br /><br />CarolineLonicerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141723287143567146noreply@blogger.com
