lapband update 011210

I find that I spend a couple days thinking about what I should put into words in my blog and the thing that keeps going thru my head is.......no matter what, the weight loss journey is difficult and it takes commitment day in and day out. We are kicking off our Greater Grand Forks Biggest Loser contest at work with Center Court Fitness and tho I'm not in it to win, but to help others be a winner by losing I can't help but feel I need to figure out what is holding me back from losing body fat/gaining muscle and getting healthy.

I have a cool application on my Ipod touch called tap and track. It keeps track of what I eat, calories, carbs, fat, protein, shows pie charts, will lower my calorie intake if i'm not losing weight, keeps documentation of my exercise! i'm loving it! I'm realizing I wasn't eating as good as I thought I was.

But even so, dang it!!!!!........I spend alot of time working out and I really can't overeat(lapband won't let me) so why in the world can't I lose??? It's very frustrating. But it's great to know that thanks to the contest, I will be training with Tyler at Center Court and I believe he will help me achive my goals. Many times i've wanted to say "forget it", but that's not the right thing to do, there's no benefit to that!

If you are struggling with your weight, there are two things you need to do if you are not.
1. JOURNAL food intake and exercise, heck even your moods
2. EXERCISE at least 30 a day.

Goodnight!
