Past half-way

Well, I'm past the half way mark! S..l..o..w but steady.

I am very grateful for the lap band; I know I would have gained at least 5-10 kilos without it. However, my loss has been slow for several reasons:

I do not follow all the rules. For example, there should be no eating between meals at all. And no drinking with meals. And my exercising is erratic.And I cannot be trusted with chocolate. At all.

Still, each month after visiting the doctor, I feel remotivated. Lately, I am losing about 2 kilos a month, which is what they like to see. So, I will just press on and really tru to avoid temptations, or at least choose them wisely. If I am going to have something high-calorie, I need to choose well and thoroughly enjoy it, not hide furtively shoving something in my mouth while hoping no one sees me.

I really want to lose all my weight by my one year anniversary.

So, here's my goal list:

10 Aug (birthday) 79 kilos
15 Oct 71.5 BMI of 25

Shit. This doesn't look possible. Well, I will try. It gives me new impetus to exercise!!!
