    I read your story again and it makes me feel right at home. I have the same worries as well. I have had stomach pains this week and couldn't help but worry if it was more than the flu. Especially since I don't have health insurance anymore. You look fantastic. I am so proud of you. People like you are what help me get into the the gym and drinking my protein on those not so good days!

    Your page is very motivativing.....It is rare that I find somebody close to my age and close to where I live on this page. For some odd reason, that makes your story more real to me, who ridiculous is that??? I just had lapband at the beginning of this month.....your pictures are real, and I appreciate that:) Congrats on your journey-

i am sick of eating.

i am confused and feel very alone.

Low B-12
on January 29, 2008 3:16 pm

great....just heard from temple about my 6 month labs....which by the way- I had to inquire...not happy about that... AT ALL.

my b-12 is in the very low 200s and it should be in the 400s.

so its going to me b-12 daily, instead of three days a week....and a monthly shot until i can get it where it needs to be.

this is just what i needed to hear in addition to all the other crap i am worrying about...like coming out underweight and such.

waaah.

Nobody said it would be easy but....

everyone said I could do it!    AND I DID!

My boyfriend and I have been interval training for a 5K (3.1 miles) in the spring.

I could run 3 miles on a tredmill, but not outside.  I was lucky to get to 1 mile.....if that.

Well, it's only been a few weeks since we started training and tonight I ran solo.  Over-achiever me decided to see how far I could push it without stopping.

I'm gonna be ready for this 5K in no time. Perhaps the Broad Street run???? My sister doesnt think I can do it. Little does she know, I'm a super hero.

I COULDN'T BE PROUDER OF MYSELF RIGHT NOW.  seriously.......I cried all the way around the track during my cool down.

today was a chest day (for weight training).  well- last chest day i didnt make it through the whole workout due to pressure/uncomfortable feeling in my left abdominal/surgery area.

today was that same pain. i stopped, but kinda pushed again too far.

now i have an uncomfortalbe, yet not too alarming, pain....still.....and i am hoping to god thats its not a hernia. i'll be pissed.

that being said...no more chest training.

for so many years, I've always done this thing where I wouldnt really look/hold up my pants when I was folding them.  I never wanted to see/come to terms with how BIG they were.  

Its hard to explain, but its almost a sub-concious thing I've done.

Well tonight I went to get my pants out of the dryer (yes- i can put them in the dryer because i know i will be thinner the next time i wear them instead of fatter! no more air drying!!!!)...and happend to actually look at them.  I held them back up and stared for a good 5 seconds....they are normal...and kinda small for that matter.

i just couldnt believe it. my perception is so off and whacked right now its unreal.
