My thinking was clearer today after posting and having support from my lapband friends online. Started the day out right with a run on the tread mill. At least it was something to get my mind going and plotting how I am going to reach my goals. Didn't have food for lunch, so went to a little sandwich shop. Got a chicken on wheat but really it wouldn't go down. I think I was too busy talking and was way hungry. I had to stop and basically finished half of it later in the afternoon after school let out. Then on to our bootcamp in the cafeteria. Geez, it was a hot day at 97 and more humidity than usual. (Not humid like back east though). I pushed though a workout barely. It was so hard for me today. I think I am dehydrated. So this evening I made a meal from Eating for Life cookbook. Its a taco pasta. I really can't eat pasta so I will have the ground beef on a tortilla if that will go down. At least I cooked a relatively healthy meal. Ice tea for my drink. Okay, do I sound more normal and not like I am ready to drive my car off a cliff? Boy, I go through that once in a while. I am not even premenstral.
I am still getting lots of nice comments about my weight from collegues. One friend said she doesn't recognize me from behind. ha... not at round back there I guess. Another friend lost lots of weight a few years ago and I was sooo jealous and envious of her. She looks absolutely awesome. She said that I look fantastic and I said I am working on it and I don't want to be jealous of her anymore cause she looks so good. She laughed and just said don't stop cause she is now working on it again.
The best thing is being confident in my own skin. I walk straighter. I wear tank tops. I pull my hair off my face when I work out. Which I never used to do cause I hate my showing my forehead. I am wearing my hair more natural, that is curly. Ha...a parent asked if I got a perm? Do people get those anymore? I pull on my work clothes and walk out of the room without changing 4-5 times cause everything made me look fat....duh....I was.... Ummm, I am just enjoying feeling good about my body. Now I have to fix my brain/thinking.
I had better go. Storytime with my 3 year old.

I think it's great when people notice you've lost weight. It is a great motivator for me too. The dinner sounds really good. Hope you were able to enjoy it.
