Livin' Large No More: February 2011
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Livin' Large No More. Thursday, February 24, 2011. Wow, it's been well over a month since my last post. I have been reading everyone's blogs and commenting where I could. I just really haven't had much to report. No great NSV's or SV's for that matter. No major life accomplishments. Not even any drama. So hopefully I can get back into the swing of things there. I've been going 4 days a week for the past 3 weeks. That's not quite I had been doing pre-op, but a heck of a lot better than I've been d...8th F...

Livin' Large No More: Perspective
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/03/perspective.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, March 9, 2011. 2 posts from me in a week? But I'm pretty excited and wanted to share. I just got back from my check-in with my nutritionist. Not the one at my surgeon's office, the one I've been seeing since 1994. She, of course, weighed me. And although I feel that the weight was artificially low since I've been subsisting on primarily protein shakes for 2 days, it did reflect a substantial loss since the last time I saw her on Jan 19th. March 10, 2011 at 10:17 AM. Losin...

Livin' Large No More: Fast Forward to Today
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/05/fast-forward-to-today.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. Fast Forward to Today. It's been way too long since I've posted. Part of it is I feel like I have nothing worthwhile to report. Part of it is I've been sort of at a stand still with my weight. I've been fighting with the same 5 pounds for the past month. I will do updates in bullet formation since everything is so all over the place. Happy Birthday to Me! And more like "how many different things can I try a small taste of? I'd rather not do that again. Bu...

Livin' Large No More: Fill #5
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/03/fill-5.html
Livin' Large No More. Tuesday, March 8, 2011. I'm getting to be an old pro at this. My surgeon does fills every 4 weeks for the 1st six months or so after surgery. I had my 5th fill yesterday and it was uneventful. I lost 1.5 lbs since Fill #4. (sadly this was up 1.2 lbs from my Sunday weight for the Spring Challenge.). I'm resisting the urge to say I "only" lost 1.5. I was feeling pretty bad about that and then I tried to reframe it (all those years of therapy are paying off! Theresa aka Tessie Rose.

Livin' Large No More: August 2010
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Livin' Large No More. Thursday, August 26, 2010. So, I have a date. I am scheduled to get banded on Wednesday, November 17th. Just about 12 weeks away. I have a weight check on 9/21 then pre-op on 11/2. On 11/3 I will begin the official pre-op diet. The day after Thanksgiving. But this does put me at Day 8 post-op on Thanksgiving Day. No stuffing muffins for Kiki this year. What did you all do about telling people about your surgery? Did you shout it from the rooftop, did you keep this to yourself? My im...

Livin' Large No More: December 2010
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. It's been exactly 3 months since my surgery. It seems so long ago, but it also seems like no time has passed at all. Sometimes I look at the fact that I've lost about 35 pounds since my initial consultation and am amazed. That's the most I've ever lost in such a short time frame. But then I consider that I lost 20 of that pre-op so only 15 in the 3 months since surgery. 5 lbs/month is okay. but am I really doing that great with a band? Despite my self-d...

Livin' Large No More: Minor Epiphany
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2011/07/minor-epiphany.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, July 13, 2011. This might seem like a no-brainer to a lot of you. On the surface this little nugget of advice seems like common sense. But I recently came to the realization that a credo I hold onto ("Just because it comes in your size, doesn't mean you should wear it.") also works in reverse:. Just because you can. Doesn't mean it's your size. And get this. they looked good. I immediately noticed that I looked smaller. Well, it stands to reason. I have be...Please tell m...

Livin' Large No More: October 2010
http://nomorelivinglarge.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Livin' Large No More. Wednesday, October 27, 2010. I had an appointment with my therapist this morning. We discussed my progress weight-wise, we discussed my issues with my job and my family and then she touched on something she immediately regretted mentioning at just 5 minutes before the end of our session. But given my reaction (spontaneous tears). clearly we have our work cut out for us! But what about my friends? I don't have a fat friend. I. My sister is barely 18 months younger than me. She's ...

Livin' Large No More. Tuesday, August 2, 2011. I love these things! I always enjoy doing and reading these getting to know you type surveys. 1)What is your occupation right now? Accountant for an insurance company. Yes, that's as exciting as it sounds. 2)What color are your socks right now? No socks for me today. Honestly, I only wear socks to the gym for the most part. 3)What are you listening to right now? 4)What was the last thing you ate? The guts of a chicken salad wrap. 5)Can you drive Stick Shift?
