Things are looking up. Wow I just noticed I havent posted in a long time on my blog here.
Lets see whats new for me.
I am 19 weeks out and have lost aprox 85 lbs and 39 inches.
I try and but strechy clothes so I can wear them longer. Im buying XL and some Larges. Im so excided to have lost so much so far.
I exercise alot. I go to curves several times a week. I also use Sweatin to the Oldies and Walk off the pounds dvds.
Ive also been walking at home outside for 2 miles. AND I ride my stationary bike several times a week for 30-60 miniutes.
I really find the exercise helps my stress levels and makes me feel better about myself,along with keeping my mind clear about other things.
Most of you know my son passed away last summer. It is aproaching 1 year now. WOW where has the time gone. It feels like yesterday that he died. but it feels like forever since I saw his smiling face.
Things are getting a little eaiser with it as time passes. but I still cry every day and have moments where I dont want to go on.
Many people thought it was a bad time for my WLS so soon after his passing. Turns out it was the best time. I now have something to look forward too and to concentrate on now. my health keeps me motivated.
Thanks for reading.
Sandra

Hey Sandra
I read your blog and was very sad to hear that your son died. I had a brother who died before I was born and it left my father a broken man and his wife died.
I have a daughter who is autistic and suffers from epilepsy, after several of her seizures we thought she was going to die and with others she has lost all memory and knowledge of who we are. Thanksfully she recovered and is back to herself with only a few gaps now.
She is an Angel too and I would not change any part of her despite her autism, it is part of who she is. I can only imagine how hard this loss is for you and your husband, I wish your family good health, happiness and some good fortune.
I had my own WLS about a month later than you I am down 77lbs so far.
