I know I haven't been around here much lately.  I have just been so sick lately with my RA and fibro and stuff lately.  But here is the most recent compare I have done.  I am almost 3 years post now and I actally smaller than this now- down to about 145 now.  My heightest weight was 382.  Such a huge change.  Started at barely fitting into a size 30 to wearing a size 7.  Working more on my blog again too.

I can't believe I am almost 2 years post op!  I am down to 158 pounds as of right now and here is my lastest compare.  I also posted some videos up on my blog at www.geekmomblog.com.  I was wondering if anyone else was having the same problems I am having?

10 Months Out
on September 28, 2010 10:05 pm
So 10 months out and a month since my gall bladder surgery.  Found a pic from Dec 2008 and WOW looks like I was up to 382 at that point!  That's higher than I remember ever being.  I guess I just blocked it from my memory and pretended it didn't happen but my journals say I was up to 382!  Down to 190 now.

My Story

I'm a 29 year old mom of two boys.  Both my boys has autism and ADHD and while our life is crazy sometimes I adore them and think they are the most awesome kids ever (well, my best friends daughter is just as awesome as they are).  I have been overweight since I was a little kid.  I used to get picked on and even pushed around in elementary school for being fat.  I ended up becoming pretty tough and started to fight back and eventually the other kids left me alone.  I have always been one to have many acquantainces but few close friends.  I started this process in May 2009 and had my DS on Novemeber 4, 2009. So far have lost 150 in 7 months which is amazing!  I am THIS close to being under 200 pounds which is very exciting for me.  I am in the process of starting up a support group in my local area and I am really excited about how the planing is going so far.  I have a weight loss surgery/ weight loss blog at www.intuitionjuice.com and I also have a Mom blog where I talk about my awesome kids (the good and the bad) at www.geekmomblog.com.
