Surgeon Testimonial

Lyudmila S. Pupkova M.D.
Excellent! The level of care that this physician provided and continues to provide to me is on a level that I cannot even describe. People look for the doctor that smiles or the one that fluffs. I wanted the one that was skilled, concerned and had my best interest at heart. Thank God that's exactly what I got. She has been wonderful. You don't have to call some answering service when you're having trouble, you call her directly anytime of the day or night. I couldn't have asked for anything better!

What a Journey
on February 1, 2012 7:19 pm

This journey....at times not so good and other times wonderful.  I thank God for the second chance at living better quality life. I don't want to take this opportunity for granted this time.  So much has happened since my last post. Again, I thank God for the good and the bad.  I didn't do well with taking my vitamins. Now I'm iron deficient and am getting ready to have an iron transfusion, my vitamin B12 and D are basically non existent. But I'm starting from today, gonna get some act right. My BFF reminded me that people that have been successful on this journey are the ones that stay in close contact with our OH family. So, I'm back on tract, back to posting, back to checking up on everybody.  Hang in there guys, God has not brought us this far to turn his back on us now! BTW, I'm getting hitched! LOL

Still Here

Hey OH Family!
We've been on this long road together and my journey has been well worth its trials and tribulations. I am still enjoying my progress, I'm hoping for about 30 more pound loss even though most of my friends and family says that will be too much. I must admit I'm nervous, nervous about ever being that size again. I must make a conscious effort on a daily basis about my life choices. I never want to feel as bad about myself again like I did when I was 371 pounds. So OH friends if you have some of those same kind of feelings I say to you hang in there, be encouraged and continue to trust yourself. That advice I am first partaker of.

The lost child returns...
on March 3, 2011 8:40 am
Hello OH family.  I know it has been ages since my last blog, but I wanted to write a little note to let you know that I am doing well and also to say HELLO to my OH family.  A lot has changed since I last blogged most of it for the good.  My self image has improved so much over these last few months.  I exercise with Zumba dance classes regularly and have seen such positive results.  I love looking at my body now and seeing how I am starting to tone up.  The weight loss has slowed some but I am still seeing losses every week. Heck I've lost 140lbs if I never lose another pound God has still done an amazing job! but for my personal goal I still have to get under 200lbs and I'll be satisfied. Gotta keep pushing.

Personally I am doing well. I am finally allowing myself to fall in love and to be loved. For me that is such an accomplishment. For years I didn't think I was worthy of being loved by any man. Not gonna say to much about my relationship but I will say if it doesn't work out I'll be ready to give it a go again!

My first year surgical anniversary is vastly approaching and I want to take this time to thank all of you for your unwavering kindness and support.

Happy Holidays
on December 21, 2010 7:31 pm
It's been a looong time since I've written a blog, but I wanted to wish everyone a blessed Christmas and a prosperous New Year.  God has truly blessed us all, he's allowed us to wake up and see another day. That in itself is the best Christmas gift we could receive. When I look back over this amazing year I am ever so grateful knowing how God has kept me.  Waking up from surgery I couldn't have imagined the day when I would appreciate all the pain that I had gone through.  Well that day is today. As I look back over this year, I might not have everything I thought I wanted or should have, but I am ever appreciative of life. And not just any life, one that is filled with quality thanks to this weight loss journey.  Be encouraged everyone and continue to thank God for his many blessings.  Live, life is too short to focus on the things you don't have.

6 months..
on September 29, 2010 1:16 pm
After waking up from surgery I could not imagine how I would be feeling today, my sixth month surgiversary. GOD is GREAT! I don't obsess about the number on the scales or what size clothes I wear ( I leave that for the spectators). But what I do know is that I feel so gosh dog good. My goals have changed from immediate weight loss, to sustained weight loss because I cannot go back to the way I was before. Surgery came at the right time, I thought about having it years ago but I realize that this is the time God had ordained for me to have surgery.  Friends, we gotta keep working hard. We have gone through too much to get to where we are to even think about going back. Keep up your healthy habits, keep sharing with one another because we have strength amongst ourselves.  6 months....wow!
