Saggy Port Side...with pics..

Aug 24, 2009

So forever ago I had posted a blog asking about if anyones port side seemed to kinda droop/sag since they have had surgery and the response I pretty much got was that they had never heard of anything like that. I asked my surgeon and they didn't really have any input on it either...since the day after surgey my port side has been relatively larger than my other side and its very noticeable through clothing..its even making my shirts too short due to that one side..My sides were relatively about the same size prior to surgery. so I thought I would post some pics to see if anyone had any idea what could be causing this...or if it is normal. I added it to my weight loss folder as well because its a very big pic on this for some reason..new at posting pics in blogs so not that great at it.  Just a quick update on me, I am almost 9 months out and have lost 95 lbs..so close to making the 100 lb marks..I'm to make this goal by Sept 1st which will be my 9 month bandiversary. Thanks everyone!

I wanna get in the zone..

Aug 12, 2009

Hey everyone, its been awhile since I have blogged..I'm off work today and I hurt my back like a dummy exercising yesterday so I've been lounging around all day which sucks because I was finally getting back into the groove of things. I may attempt to do some light exercises at home just so I can say I did something today. I'm starting to plateau again with the weight loss but I'm losing inches which is great. I think I'm going to do the plateau buster diet again so I can get back on track. I think I may be about ready for another fill..its been almost 3 months since my last one. I have lost 30 lbs since then, so far a total of about 90 lbs..I keep yo yoing back and forth with a couple lbs..I got my measurements taken at the gym, my last measurements were about 3 months ago but I'm satisfied with the results. 16 inches gone!!! I couldn't believe it..lol. I wish I would have started measuring sooner and keeping track of my inches lost rather than just my lbs..I wanna get in the zone!. I'm getting there though, I have been going to the gym about 3 x's a week so far and trying to do some stuff at home. I feel like I don't get the best workout when I do it at home though. I push myself harder and more when I go to the gym. I'm kinda a bummed how this summer has been..I haven't really done anything fun..all I do is work it seems. 2 years ago my summer consisted of going to Kings Island like every week, having movie nights with my best friends and just having fun. I don't do anything anymore mainly because I have gained so much weight and of course my friends and I have since then seperated and aren't as close.  I was really hoping to lose enough weight by the summer to go to King's Island, I know I could fit in some of the rides now but I dont want to take the chance and then get humiliated when I can't fit..that has happened 1 too many times. Its so embarrassing. The worse moment was when I waited in line for almost 2 hours for a new ride that was opening and then I couldn't fit..it was horrible. I try to avoid things like that as much as possible. I need to make a list of all things I want to do once I lose more weight to see what my mind can think of. There has been so much I haven't been able to do in my life since I have been overweight for all of it. I will post again soon. Adios.

P.S. here are my measurments I didn't want to break the post up.
