Wow...I have not done a blog in months - wonder why I haven't had time LOL. Let's see....new job, training for 5K, and oh yeah....DATING (which is alot of work). Scale had not moved in weeks and I actually gained a few pounds on that wonderful beach vacay. Hoping to ...

9 months post op

Fri, 13 Jul 2012 19:26:00 -0700

Not sure how I'm feeling about my 9 month checkup -- weight wise I was fine (still 205) BUT my labs are and have been a total unexplainable mess!!! So I clearly get enough protein but the prealbumin is still low @ 11 (up from 8). Vitamin A is now ...

Couch to 5K

Officially started couch to 5K today. I am super excited (and so is Julie - my runner friend). The program's structure is perfect for me...clearly laid out with goals (my M.O. all day). Going to do a little "shoe" investigation because I want to run properly and not have any ...

Down to 214 which makes me officially overweight. This is the first time in my entire adult life that I have not been obese or morbidly obese -- WOW!!!!! This week was a 4 pound loss week and I think it had to do with calories vs exercise. My exercise ...

American Eagle BABY!!!!!

Wed, 18 Apr 2012 18:01:00 -0700

Found a pair of AE jeans (with the tags still on) in my son's closet and he didn't "feel" like taking them back so off I went AND got my first item(s) from AMERICAN EAGLE and only spent 53 cents thanks to his expensive taste in jeans. It was funny ...

6 months post op

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 19:54:00 -0700

YAY 6 month check up today and I got a 5 star review. Still some confusion as to why I'm not absorbing protein so we are checking with Dr. Raja to see if thallesemia or the anemia have influences. Was hoping to weigh-in at 222 for a nice 60 pound ...

Rambling Update

Things are really beginning to fall into place although they may have already been there BUT I wasn't recognizing it. I have a coworker (AC) who has had surgery and when I see her I think she looks so good. I took a picture with her AND damn I look ...

What to do on a rainy day....clean out and organize the closet AGAIN and of course I found my NOLA outfit that I use in my standard before picture. I had planned on using the same outfit for my "official" after pic but decided to try it on anyway and ...

Woke up Friday morning due to pain in my breast bone/tummy area, proceeded with my daily routine and took a sip of my shake and OUCH!!! Pain, pressure, burning. Tried water and same thing. Something wasn't right. Surgeon's office sent me to local ...
