And the Journey Begins...: Shopping frustrations
http://danaslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/2012/03/shopping-frustrations.html
And the Journey Begins. Sunday, March 25, 2012. I have always considered myself a professional shopper. I would go shopping every day if time (& money) allowed it! In February I also finally picked out my wedding dress with the help of my awesome consultant! My bust and hips were two different sizes so we decided to order the dress the smaller size. My dress came in in one week and is about 2 inches from zipping all the way up. Talk about motivation! Can't stop now, I have a wedding dress to fit in to!

And the Journey Begins...: Living in the moment & loving every minute!
http://danaslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/2011/08/living-in-moment-loving-every-minute.html
And the Journey Begins. Wednesday, August 17, 2011. Living in the moment and loving every minute! That put my weight loss at 34.5 lbs and I am down another 2-4 lbs since then. Last month I had found a pair of nice grey pants that I didn't even know I had and I had them hemmed to fit my height. The pants fit great for a few weeks then all of a sudden last week they are now too long and baggy. My hips and legs are getting smaller so these pants are now too big! Last month I had started going to the gym and...

And the Journey Begins...: November 2011
http://danaslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
And the Journey Begins. Thursday, November 17, 2011. Things to be thankful for. First 24 hours is liquid only, next 2 days is 3 protein shakes, 4th and 5th days I can re-introduce mushy foods for 1 meal and then finally 6 days post fill I can go back to eating my one meal of regular foods along with my 2 protein shakes each day. This was MUCH harder then I even imagined it would be! I also was planning on waiting a few more months to start wedding dress shopping but have decided I can't hold out any more...

And the Journey Begins. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Kicking my own a$ :-). Never in my life have I gone to a restaurant and not been able to finish off my whole plate, let alone only half of it! Was great being able to take home that second half and have an entire dinner for the next night. I could definitely get used to this :-). New shirt (2 sizes smaller! Newly hemmed pants, and heels, which I can now wear all day! Sunday, July 24, 2011. First Shopping Trip Post-op. Decided to leave the mall and try my lu...

And the Journey Begins...: Getting back on track
http://danaslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/2012/11/getting-back-on-track.html
And the Journey Begins. Thursday, November 1, 2012. Getting back on track. My last entry here was at my 1 year Banderversary, 5 months ago. These last few months have been filled with some amazing times. Biggest thing that happened is that my fiancé and I got married! At some point over the summer I had gotten a fill and shortly after realized it was too much. I was getting stuck all the time and getting pretty frustrated. We did not want to look back on the day and regret not doing something. Our off-pl...

And the Journey Begins...: June 2011
http://danaslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
And the Journey Begins. Thursday, June 30, 2011. Is that a waist I see? It's been a great week and a half since my last post! I somehow managed to survive that remaining days on my liquid only diet. Getting a nasty cold with a terrible sore throat definitely helped keep away any thoughts of actually wanting to eat anything. I had an appointment with with the dietician at the bariatric office this past monday, 6/27/11, and was finally allowed to start eating mushy foods! Tuesday, June 21, 2011. I know onc...

And the Journey Begins. Friday, June 8, 2012. One whole year under my belt! I can honestly say I have not idea where the last year has gone! Seems like just yesterday I was going through all my pre-op appts and getting all that done. I can not believe that today marks my 1 year "banderversary"! I have been living with this band for the past year and will say until I am blue in the face that this was the BEST decision I have ever made! But it has all been worth it!

And the Journey Begins...: Getting through the holiday season!
http://danaslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/2011/12/getting-through-holiday-season.html
And the Journey Begins. Saturday, December 31, 2011. Getting through the holiday season! Made it through my first holiday season with my band! I did not try a single thing, and Peter reaped the benefits of occasionally being my taste-tester. Tonight we are going out to a pub with 2 other couples for dinner, followed by dancing! I can not remember the last time I went out dancing and was actually excited about it, my guess is that it was back in college :-). And here is a Christmas 2010 vs Christmas 2011!
