6 Month Check up
on April 15, 2008 8:40 am

 

4-14-08

 Today I met with Dr Lemar for my 6 month check up.  He was pleased with my 103 pound weight loss and said that I was doing great.  He thinks that I will pass up the goal weight of 175 that he set for me at my first appointment, which is wonderful!  I would be happy with the weight that I am now, but hey I am not going to complain.

 

Total Loss since surgery 103!!

Total Loss 124 since my highest weight!

Size Smaller
on February 8, 2008 10:02 am
I remember when I would look at a pair of 14 size pants and think "I will never be that size again"  Well I am now!  I bought a pair of Capri's that a size 14 the other day because they were onsale and I figured I eventually would be in them again and now I am!  This is the best feeling!  I am also wearing a 14/16 top now too!

My Story

 My name is Nicole.  I am a 30 year old single mom of a 7 year old who is my life!    I have been over weight most of my life and I am sick of it!  I want to be healthy and be able to live my life to the fullest and my weight holds me back.  I have a consultation with Dr Lamar and it can not get here soon enough!  The day I met with the Nutritionist My starting weight in December 2006 was 315 pounds, and Oct 24, 2007,  the morning of my surgery my weight was 294.  I can not wait to start this journey, I am so tired or being tired, fat and unhealthy.  I grew up as a chubby child,  got thin,  then got fat!!  I have struggled for a long time with my weight and I am tired of it.   Nothing I was doing lasted and it was a constant weight roller coaster.  After I had my son I got alot bigger and it took me time to realize that I deserved to be healthy and happy and so did my son.  About 6 years ago I started to look into gastric bypass surgery, I was only able to get as far as looking on the internet, I think I just was not ready for such a major life change and then it got to the point to where I really had no choice.  So about two years ago I started talking to my Dr about it and he was against it, but I new it was my only choice so I changed Dr's.  then about a year ago I was ready and in a few months I was approved for the surgery and it has finally become reality!  I am on my way to a Healthy New Me and I can not wait for it all to begin!
