So a quick Birthday comparison...
Before Lap Band Surgery ~ for my big day I would spend many days dreaming about which restaurant we would go to.. I would have a huge breakfast (that was my favorite meal) ~ waffles and muffins and scrambled tofu...yummmm
Then I would lay around most of the day - go to lunch and then start partying late afternoon ~ lots of wine/champagne and huge dinner and of course cake! All of this sugar would then trigger a binge that would last through Halloween! And I would feel like this:
Post Lap Band Surgery ~ After taking a few days to detox from my cake I will be staying away from sugar.
First event of the day~ 24 mile Mountain Bike Ride with my most awesome husband and friends at a dirt park ~ 8am
Have a work meeting (I never work on my b-day ~ this is an exception) 2:30
Boot Camp @ 5:30 ~ can't wait because we will be doing TRX too
Swim and Paddle after boot camp at the beach and pot luck picnic @ sunset!
Woo hoo!
I love my band and my new life!!
I'll be posting new pictures tomorrow
oh and ~ NSV - went shopping last night ~ new bras and underwear - 36C from 42D - (I refused to go to DD but probably should have at the time)
Happy Birthday!! Congratulations on turning your life around!!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday and happy new life, Vanessa.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that frog picture. He made me laugh because it is a true representation of how I felt pre-band too.
