I have made it to my 1 yr surgiversary! yay! I am down 116 pounds now and 11 pounds away from onderland. I hope I can make it! I am determined to get under 200 pounds! I am finding I can eat a little more so I have to step back and measure my foods better. I have a lot more energy then I used to which is great. On a lighter note my husband and I just became licensed foster care parents. We just got our 1st child in the home and she is 7 yrs old. She is keeping me very busy at this moment!


                                           

Hey everyone! I am doing well and 107 pounds gone! Weight loss is very slow but still losing. For my doctors goal I need 20 more pounds gone and for  my goal is another 40 pounds. I will get there eventually. I have a lot more energy now than I have ever had. I can eat a little bit more depending on the food, I just have to watch portion control. I am almost nine months out and the only thing I am low on is my b12 vitamin, which I am supplementing for. Just wanted to give an update.

This month has been a little frustrating with the scale but got through it. I lost a total of 91 pounds so far and I am just a little over 5 months post op. I have a lot more energy and finding that i can eat a little nmore than I am used to so I have had to seriously journal everything I eat. I am excercising 4 days a week and it gets easier by the week. I have only 9 more pounds to lose so i can get my century card and I cannot wait.

Wow, it has been a month already since I have updated! Well to start off, I am down 84 pounds and feel good. My 4 month lab levels were good and my cholesterol is 114 down from 180. So I was quite pleased. I have noticed though that the weight loss is getting slower by the week. I am losing inches so i am doing something right! Mt doctor and everyone is very pleased with my progress.One side effect of the surgery is that i am cold all the time. I am almost to the century club!

Wow, it has been almost a month since I have updated. I amd now down 78 pounds and feeling pretty well for the most part. I go for my 4 month post op blood work next week, to make sure my levels are okay. I have been exercising a lot more lately which is great. I am able to keep more food down now and most of my liquids. One thing that feels great is watching my clothes sizes go down! Hope everyone had a great new year!
