    The Will to Win by Berton Braley If you want a thing bad enough To go out and fight for it, Work day and night for it, Give up your time and your peace and your sleep for it, If only desire of it Makes you quite mad enough Never to tire of it, Makes you hold all other things tawdry and cheap for it, If life seems all empty and useless without it And all that you scheme and you dream is about it, If gladly you'll sweat for it, Fret for it, Plan for it, Lose all your terror of God or man for it, If you'll simply go after that thing that you want With all your capacity, Strength, and sagacity, Faith, hope, and confidence, stern pertinacity, If neither cold poverty, famished and gaunt, Nor sickness nor pain Of body and brain Can turn you away from the thing that you want, If dogged and grim you besiege and beset it, You'll get it.

    Stephany, Best of luck on Wednesday. I am sure you are rushing around trying to get the family settled and prepared for you to be gone for a few days. I am so glad you have this opportunity to regain your life. I am 2 weeks after you, so will be looking to you for inspiration! Best Wishes! Kim-150

Hi and thanks for checking in on me!
I'm Stephany and this is the story of my journey through WLS from the old me to the new and improved me! It's been one hell of a year...160lbs lost and I LOVE LIFE! Can you believe I'm past my doc's goal?!?!?

7 Months - 198lbs

This is going to be my quickest entry....June was't a very good month for me. My weight loss just about stopped. But the last week I was able to drop off a few more to get into Onederland...FINALLY!! I'm only 3 pounds away from my 100lb weight loss and I can't wait to be part of the Century Club!!
Still ever so busy with getting into the new house. Between closings, packing and the actual move....I'm SUPER STRESSED OUT!! 
I hope July is going to be a much better month for my weight to come off.
Wish me luck!!

6 month checkin' in!
on June 13, 2007 11:02 am
Well it's been a crazy few weeks. We sold our home unexpectedly and had a mad dash to find another. We did manage to get a great house that we should be closing on July 20th. I CAN NOT WAIT!!
I've been stalled for a while now. I'm stuck at 203lbs but I really haven't  been an "ideal patient" either. I've tested the waters as most of us do from time to time. I've been stressed and have tried not to go back to the bad ways of eating that got me here in the first place.
I'll be happy when life slows down a little and I can really concentrate on protein, water, treadmills....until then, I'll do the best I can to stay in "check".
I had my 6 month check up...both the surgeon and my nut said I was doing amazingly well with my progress and should keep up the good work. I'm proud of myself, but I know I still have a ways to go and a long road ahead of me. I've recently seen a few friends that I've been missing and they were stunned by the changes I've gone through. That felt great to see how shocked they were. Makes it all worth it!!
Until next time!

Woo Hoo!! Stall's OVER!!
on May 24, 2007 5:37 am

It's happened again this month....I've lost 4 pounds in 3 days. Now I'll probably go another week without losing anything, but at this point, I don't care. It's coming off and I'm only 7..yes...7 pounds away from "Onederland". Yeah for ME!!

Stalled AGAIN!
on May 18, 2007 5:38 pm
UUghh! Seems like I'm stalled again...in fact, I gained a pound this week. I ONLY seem to lose weight when I get my period (which seems to be every 2 weeks lately). I hate to look forward to getting it, but it's the only time the scale seems to move. What's up with that????
SIGH!

Not a bad week!

Hey All, 
Well, I'm down 83lbs since I started this journey. I'm now in a size 18 pants and XL shirts. Not bad for 5 months! 62lbs to go!!

My Story

   

 

 

I've done a whole host of diets from Weight Watchers to NutriSystem to SlimFast. About 4 years ago I decided to make a real effort to lose weight. I had just broken up with someone I cared deeply about and was in a funk. It had nothing to do with my weight, I just felt I need to "clean" things out of my life and my weight was going to be it. I bought a bottle of Metabolife with Ephedra and I accompanied that with SlimFast. One year later I had lost over 110lbs. I had never felt better in my life. It was easy at that point. I was a single mom to my daughter who was 8 at the time. I had a full-time job and I was very routine with my life.  In a nutshell, I married a wonderful man, had 2 babies and gained everything back and then some....it was time for WLS! Ask me about my journey!!   Glitter Graphic: dba5fbe480fc9e662152df1b8941235f.gif
