Weigh in today....



So I was down 2.8 lbs or something like that. So crazy because I weighed myself yesterday and I was at 265 and now at 262. I did not believe it so I weighed myself multiple times and I also weighed after my shower. I said I will take that.. LOL.. Yeah happy dance happy dance..

I also have to say I love lapband.com I got my weight started and added my losses and it was so cool to see I had surgery 79 days ago, that I am 31% to my goal weight and does a graph as well for a visual.. It also calculates your BMI I am down 5 points. YEah for me. You can also track your meals and everything on there so if you have not done so yet check it our...

I am also in a better mood today I whipped up a quilted bag for my friends birthday present and a navajo print afghan. Her mother taught me this stitch and she has been bugging me forever to make her one. Crystal is also like a sister to me. One day when I want to get into my past which I will one day your will learn how we have become so close. She is actually the one who co-signed so I could get this surgery.. I love her so much.. It is just a lap throw. I only push out a bigger blanket every once in awhile. I try to make all the new babies a blanket. I go through spurts of either beading, sewing, crocheting, or reading. When I get hooked I get really hooked.. I have not beaded in a long time so time to get back into that.. I am also working on another blanket for a friend who is going to have a baby this spring. I get picky about the colours and if I do not like it I can not handle working on it.. LOL.. I am not a pro by any means just hobbies I want to learn how to quilt better. I can do a basic quilt with squares but that is all. I so want to get creative with quilts.

So also I want to say today that I can not wait to be down 40 lbs I will do some more after pics on that day. only 4 lbs away.. I can do it..

Hope everyone is having a fabulous friday.. Crystal will be here soon...

PS I just had another friend call and want to know if I wanted 10 free tickets to the cross country skiing at whistler next sunday.. I can not believe how lucky I am to have friends like this... Now I have to figure out if it will work for us.. HMMMMM

  2. Hi Michelle...

    First of all, thanks for sharing that stuff about lapband.com. I've been there, but I really didn't get it. I guess I need to take another look?

    I would give my eye-teeth for those Olympic tickets to ANY event!!! I'm so bummed I'm not in my own country & province for such a momentous event! :( I sure hope you have opportunity to take your friend up on them. Once in a lifetime, girl!

    And, I don't know when you were banded, but WAY TO GO!!! :) I'm hoping to get mine by end of April. Just getting near the end of my 6 month insurance requirements; then we'll see if I'm approved.

    I saw you're following my other blog (Canadian Bird). I do have a separate band-blog b/c I haven't told many people yet about my decision. My band blog is Band on the Run (click on it).
    You'll see I'm duplicating some posts b/c I barely have time to post to one blog! LOL
    I'm just keeping any banding facts/lingo out of my personal everyday blog.
    So, check out my band blog. Thanks for following me regardless!!! :)

    Blessings,
    Robin

  3. Hi Michelle,

    Great job on the bag, and I love the blanket! Is it crocheted or what? It looks so neat.
