Manic Wednesdays Measurements {June | Week 4}

This week I met my match in having my lap band filled. I had a fill last Thursday, and it was a doozy, what they'd consider two whole fills just to help me out. Problem with that was IT WAS TWO WHOLE FILLS. Sooooo by yesterday I couldn't even get simple foods down, and had to go in and have them remove an entire half of what they put in. On the not-so-great-but-still-a-plus-side I lost almost 4lbs in the few days I was over filled :)

I think it's important to stress staying hydrated right now. Whenever you're working out, especially in this vicious heat we're all experiencing, you can still work out but make sure above all else to STAY HYDRATED!! One way or another, I won't even be picky or harp about what to drink ... just make sure it's something that will keep you hydrated and upright :)

So I'm now officially at 253 .... YAY!! (right? LOL)

Arm: 15

Bust: 42

Waist: 44

Neck: 18

Improvements all around, and to be honest it's because I'm sticking so stringently to making sure everything I'm eating is either a whole food, or isn't filled with nasty preservatives. I'm drinking a lot of water too, and that's been making a huge difference with my skin and just over all complexion. Something I want to share that Charlie and I have adopted is we bought these plastic carry bottles, and invested in Brita pitchers, two of them. We use the pitchers to keep the bottles filled and use Crystal light. This way we aren't filling land fills with water bottles, and we've saved A TON OF MONEY. Just a tip :)
