*Tap* *Tap* Is this thing on?

I really don't have much to say to be honest. I am a ball of mixed emotions. I sometimes think that the lap-band wasn't meant for me. Or lets say, I wasn't ready for the lap-band. I am stuck between 199 and 200 pounds. I mean why would my weight change, I am not working out. I don't eat great either. Hell I sit here at my desk with a open Dr. Pepper can that I have taken a few sips of. It actually made my stomach hurt so I stopped drinking it.

My boyfriend moved in to my apartment on July 10th. He has been such a huge help! Cooked me some fish twice and it was sooo yummy! My tummy was happy! I am no longer in a long distance relationship due to this move. It is nice to have him here every day and know he does not have to fly back to Atlanta after being together only a week.

The kids are doing well. Summer break is going by quick for them. I like them in school better. So they aren't just wasting time playing online all day long. Ayanna made some brownies the other day and then cupcakes the next day. I think shes plotting against me. lol

So now here is another issue. I am always so sleepy. Grouchy. I know one day I am just going to SNAP! lol How in the heck do I get out of this mood?

And can someone link me to lap-band friendly recipes?


Oh! Tonight the boyfriend and I are going to the Orange County Fair. I am super excited! I love the fair. (And the fair food) I am not too big for the rides anymore which means I think I will get on a few. I really like to see the vendors too. They sell all kinds of nifty little things there.


Until next time.....

Oh how I've neglected you,,,

Dearest Blog,
I hope you're not mad at me. See I've been very busy with my life. My trip to Atlanta was AMAZING! I now have a boyfriend. Yes a real BOYFRIEND! He is awesome!
Anyway so I am still at the same weight I was before. I really haven't been trying to lose weight. I go through phases where I want to lose more than I get lazy and don't care. I need to snap out of it. So I said I wanted to get to my goal weight by my birthday in December, however I don't think its possible to get a full workout with my meniscus tear. Or maybe that is just my mind telling me I cant do something.
As I sit here and snack on chips... smdh.. I am my worst enemy and I know it.
Anyway hopefully I will have some time later tonight to upload some of my pictures of my trip to Atlanta!
XOXO
