I am still trying to get the last 5 pounds off. I do believe it is time to step up the excersing ...Saturday is the March of Dimes walk in Dover, Delaware. My husband John and I are going to walk 2.5 miles. This will be my first walk like this. I have raised over 100.00 so far. Not Bad for a first timer... Loving my WLS more and more each day.
 
All I can say is Thank You My Texas Friend Laura for her continued support...

1 down 5 to go
on April 4, 2010 4:09 pm
I am losing very slow..I have 5 pounds to go to reach my personal goal. I wear a size 12 jeans and a size Med. shirt. Long way from my previous size 22-24 shirt and size 24 jeans. I Can Do Anything now Thanks to my RNY...I am walking for Thr March of Dimes on the 24th of this month. It is a 2.5 mile walk. My Great Neice and Great Nephew were born Nov. 7th, almost 3 months too soon. Thanks to March of Dimes for all of their continued help. The twins are doing Great. Caroline is home but Cameron is still in the hospital. He had to have a trac put in. But he is doing so much better. So I wanted to support them by being a part of The Ridgeway Angels walk with March of Dimes. I did get $100.00 in donations for the walk.

My Story

I am 51 years old have been very OBESE since the birth of my second child. I have tried every diet there is. With success for awhile. Than gain the weight back plus 20-30 more pounds. I made the decision to have RNY after much research and discussing it with my family.I want to be around for my Family. I just wish that I had made the decision sooner. I would like to be able to go out in public without having to worry about what people think, be able to go on rides at the theme parks without questioning myself "WILL I FIT"? I JUST WANT TO GET A HANDLE ON HOW I FEEL ABOUT ME!  I have been married for 10 years am a Mother of three Wonderful children Amanda Lyn ( Amanda's boyfriend Michael), Alta Michelle( Alta's boyfriend Eric) and Levi Eli. Two Lovely Grandchildren Destiny Nicole and Austin James. MY GOAL IS TO LIVE LIKE THERE IS NO TOMORROW!!!!!
