I ran a 5K this morning in 39:15!!!! My daughter was there to take a picture of me before the race, but she didn't take one after. She, my son (who also ran) and his girlfriend were at the finish to greet me. TALK ABOUT BAWL LIKE A BABY!

I couldn't get my pictures from the ball to upload for some reason, so here are some I had to cut and paste here. Had a ball at the ball to say the least. I think this is one of the best things the surgeons, nutritionists, PA-Cs could do to acknowledge ...

Okay! WOWZERS!

Last night I was on a qwest. Every year the surgeons, nutritionists and rest of the surgical team at Gundersen Lutheran put on a Bariatric Ball for all post-operatives. Kind of a tux/formal dress affair. K...the last time I delved into the formal dress arena was at my Junior Prom ...

Emotional Eating

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 18:58:00 -0800

That's what I just did. I was upset and I ate 3/4 of a piece of cheesecake I baked for my co-workers today. What the hell is wrong with me. I have been upset because the scale won't move, personal issues in my life whatever..... It's not that I don't get ...

Wed, 06 Feb 2008 16:28:00 -0800

I guess I decided not to give up. That would be bad....plus I would be a quitter. I decided I needed to do something different. I have decided to start running which I stated in the giving up post...and that has been going real well. I have made a pact with ...

I GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell? I am so tired of sitting here at 202! I am destined to never see anything below 200. I haven't been there since before 1993. This teasing me shit is really starting to piss me off, and I have had it. 16s are too big, and 14s ...

Not good at the blog thing.....

Sun, 13 Jan 2008 09:09:00 -0800

I am so not good at the blog thing. I had a follow up on the 19th of December, 2007, with my nutritionist and PA-C. I have officially lost 40% of my excess and my nutritionist thought my goal of 160-150 was very attainable. I got flamed again for counting calories, ...

Start of my Journey

Mon, 15 Oct 2007 09:30:00 -0700

I started this whole thing back in September 2006. I attended the mandatory seminar at Gundersen Lutheran in La Crosse, WI, on the 12th. I met then with the surgical team on the 29th and they decided I was a candidate for the surgery. I had to have the dreaded sleep ...
