5 day pouch test
on January 25, 2013 8:23 pm

I have been stalled forever (like 6 months) so I am doing the 5 day pouch test, I am on day 4.  It is tons easier than I thought it was going to be.  I didn't do it just to shed a few pounds, I did it because my late night carb, empty calorie munching.  I'm an all or nothing girl so I have done really good.  I've lost 4lbs in 4 days, it might just be water weight or mental but I needed to do something.  Last night I realized as I was watching tv that I really didn't feel the need to eat anything, So even if I did not lose a single pound I'm happy that I am on my way to breaking my late night snacking again.  I also noticed I am staying fuller longer and not as hungry but probably because I am eating the right things and back to no liquids 30min before and after my meal.  As soon as I am done with my 5 days (tomorrow) I am going to hit the gym hard....baby steps  :)

Hope u r all doing well  !!!!

Boobies...finally
on September 17, 2012 2:59 pm
Okay, so I am finally rewarding myself with a set of knockers and a tummy tuck on November 15, 2012.  I'm super excited.  After a few consultations I decided to go big instead of doing a lift since several doctors said I was borderline needing a lift but if I went big enough I wouldn't look saggy so I have decided to do 650cc's which will probably be at a full DD (what I was before surgery).  I didn't actually plan on a tummy tuck but I got a great bundle price so why not.  I have only touched my goal weight (150) one day but I stay around 152 which I am totally content with that :)

1 year out
on March 26, 2012 3:26 pm
Not much has changed.  A year has come and gone.  I am steady holding at 163.  I still work out but not as much as I should, usually can only get about 3 work outs in a week.  My daughter is in cheer still, soccer and plays an instrument.  She keeps me so busy, I don't know how I kept up with her when I was a million pounds heavier.  I recently took in my 8 year old niece and her soccer practices on on opposite days of my daughter...really?  So now I live at the soccer field but when I am not there I am in Vegas.  Its no secret I love to party but for the last two months my husband works at state line and has an apartment in Vegas, so I go out there atleast 3 times a month and he comes home once a week.  I love it, I get the bed to myself, he doesn't have time to spend money, so I help him (hehe).  I do miss him tons but you know what they say "absences make the heart grow fonder".  I posted some pics and why is it I still hate the way I look in them.  I still feel fat, will that ever change?  ugh.  Anyways, hope everyone is good  :)

10/11 months out
on January 30, 2012 12:43 pm
I am 10 months, almost 11 months out.   This time has gone by sooooooooooooo fast.  I have pretty much stopped losing weight but I am okay with that.  I work out 4-6 times a week, I can run (huge deal for me).  I love working out.  I get bummed when I can't work out.  My daughter is in cheer, band, soccer, ASB and keeps me soo busy so I have had to adjust to waking up even earlier (4am)  so I can work out but my hubby wakes up with me and if its walking day he goes walking with me or he will get up and get my clothes ready, make my protein shake while I work out.  If it is ab day, I have a DVD and my daughter will wake up and do it with me since she hears the TV.  They both have made this whole journey soo much easier. 
Okay, I know I have said this before but I have always been a happy person, but I am super happy now.  I work at a high school and I was nominated best smile for staff pics whereas in the past I have always been "first one on the dance floor".  I am sad to give up my old title but a good smile is great too. 
I am experiencing a few "haters" with the "you cheated" comments and the you look "sick" ... whatever.  Why do miserable people try to make you miserable too?  I dont' let it phase me, I simply give them my blank stare and blink alot until they go away.  haha...and then I crack up.
So to sum up this month, doing great, loving life and hoping my OH friends are too!!!   xoxo  (me in the middle)

9 months out ...
on December 15, 2011 3:35 pm
Still feeling really good!!!  I have lost 92 lbs, I am hoping to lose another 20 more but if I don't, I am perfectly content with how I am now.  I feel tons healthier and happier.  I always thought of myself as a happy person but I'm even happier now.  Its kinda weird cuz my life is soo close to perfect that I get worried I'm due for a whopper of a disaster...know what I mean?  Well I hope my OH family is doing well!!!  As we close the 2011 year I look back on all the changes and I am soo greatful for this site and the continued support I get from my posts, everyone is soo encouraging...thank you all  xoxo

My Story

I am a 30 year old single mother of one great kid, Kristen Savannah.  I am very involved in her education by being a parent volunteer, PTA secretary and assisting with her cheer squad.  I also work full time at a high school.  My busy schedule has me eating food on the go (junk), no time for exercising...I know lots of excuses. I realized that now I am 30 (wow...scary to say), I have sleep apnea and need surgery on both my knees due to old injuries, it is time to make a change.  My family and friends are so worried that they have offered to buy my health food, pay for a gym membership and throw away all unhealthy food at my house...I am going to show them this website so they can see that there are a ton of people who have done in with amazing results.  I can't wait to be thin, to climb a flight of stairs with out breathing like a fat man on the stairmaster, put lotion on my feet with ease and so many other things....

Keep posting pics everyone...it gives me tons of encouragement and lessens my worries .   :)
