It's funny, but throwing it out into the universe of blogland really works for me. (Thanks Read and Justawallflower for checking in!) After hitting publish I thought, "Well, now I have to just go do it." I got my gear on and hit the road. It was hot, humid, and windy, but 12 miles later --- my longest training run was done!
A recap of last week:
My journey on becoming and being a bandster. (Having the lapband procedure.) Hopefully it will not only help me in my journey and in reflection, but others that are considering lapband as a viable option for weightloss.
A recap of last week:

Tips for Success with Lap Band
- Eat only small meals (four to six ounces = 1/2 to 3/4 cup)
- Cut food into small, dime-size bites. Eat only one bite at a time. Chew thoroughly and swallow carefully.
- Stop eating as soon as you feel full. Just because you can eat more, doesn't mean you should!
- Do not drink while eating.
- Eat only quality, nutritious foods. Remember protein first!
- Avoid white, starchy foods and fibrous foods with stalks
- Drink plenty of fluids during the day (eight 8oz glasses) unless contraindicated due to a medical condition
- Drink only low-calorie liquids
- Exercise at least 30 minutes a day, unless contraindicated due to a medical condition
- Call your surgeon, nurse practitioner, or provider if you have any problems, questions, concerns, vomiting, or are unable to keep down liquids.
These are general guidelines, but each patient is unique. Speak with your doctor or nurse practitioner if you have questions or are struggling with any of these guidelines.
