    Tuesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench! ~ JudyAnne

The diary of one fat chick ...


Hangin in there ...
on July 28, 2007 8:32 am
Well, I know what I wrote in my last post about maybe seeing if I was going to need to have a few cc's removed ... well, I have been stickin it out. 

I am pretty uncomfortable most of the time and throw up pretty regularly ... but I am pleased with the weight loss. To date I have lost 54 pounds. Not too shabby. 

My family says they can see the difference ... that there is a big difference - I don't see it, but I do feel it in the clothes that I am now wearing. I started in a 24-26 now I am in a 20 -22. I am happy with that progression. 

I have already gotten rid of alot of my "fat" clothes ... that was a great feeling actually. 

So, as I mentioned I am hangin in there ...  I don't see Dr. Birch until September now. We'll see how things go from here.

Too many cc's ... ?
on July 10, 2007 10:48 am
Well, I went for another fill yesterday (Monday July 9th) ... and I think I have too many cc's ... everything I ate after the fact I threw up ... I will give it another day or two, but I am thinking I may have to go in and have at least 1/2 cc removed. 

I am now up to 5 cc's, and still looking for the "Sweet Spot" ...

Though the good news is I am down another few pounds ... 272! 

That is a total of 47 pounds since my heaviest point (319) slow and steady baby!
