    Wednesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench! ~ JudyAnne

6/10/07 Can't believe it is June
posted on 6/10/07 2:49 pm
Well, here it is June and I haven't posted since April.  I thought I had posted in May, but I didn't see anything.  Well I am about 3 1/2 months postop and my total weight loss is 62 lbs.  I hear other people with much higher loss and thought that I was not doing was much as I should have.  I went for my 3 month check-up and the medical physician told me that due to my starting weight 251, I am ahead of the game by 15 lbs.  He told me that I lost 15 lbs more than he was expecting.  This made me happy to say the least.  I am not running any races with anyone.  I just want to make steady sure progress.  My current weight is 189 and I haven't weighted that in years.  I am walking about 2-4 miles per day and really trying to eat appropriately.  Today we went to a seafood buffet.  They honored my WLS card and charged me for a child's meal.  I had three shrimp, three crab legs, very small amount of crab soup and that was it.  No desseart, I did really well, and the server we had was very kind.  Some of them can act strange.  Last week we went to Red Lobster, and I ordered an appetizer as my meal.  The server got kind of smart with me, stating I thought you didn't want an appetizer.  I had to explain that was want I wanted for my meal.  She rolled her eyes and placed the order.  I didn't care, I was the customer.  Anyway, that broiled appetizer made three meals for me.  Boy am I a cheap date.  My stock pile of smaller clothes are dwindling.  Looks like I will need to get some shorts.  I thought I had some, but they are all too big.  And, then we went swimming.  Well I put on last year's bathing suit thinking it would be close to fitting, ya know, they are form fitting.  Not a chance.  I had gapping spots under my arms.  So I need one of those too.  These are nice problems to have.  

I need to post a new picture, which I will try to do soon.  My daughter took a picture of us together, I will try to get it down loaded and on ASAP.  Oh well, that is it for now.  I am the happiest I have been in a long time and can finally sleep with my husband (I am no longer snoring).  That has been a real blessing.  I hope for more to come.  Jen
