I have not written in about 2 months. (bad, bad,bad). Well its still going good. My appitite has returned and I am in a stall, my first real stall and I dont like it. I am having some episodes of low blood sugar that sucks!. Anyway still trying to exercise at Curves at least 3 to 4 days a week. Just started taking a yoga class and I really like it. I am hoping a change in my routine will jump start my weight loss again. I am about 108lbs down. Im in a size 14 and I am not complaining by any means. I really feel comfortable at this size but I do want to loose more. I am 9 months out at the end of this month. Hard to believe. This stall is really scaring me, I know its normal but its still in the back of my mind that I will gain it all back. Well nothing more to do but wait it out and keep a positive attitude. (try to anyway).

Today I weighed in at 171lbs (holy crap). That's 101lbs total. This feels to good to be true. I am fitting in a size 14 sometimes a sixteen depending on what it is. Jeans seem to be a hard fit because of the tummy situation. I am a little concerned about the snacking, and things going down a little to easy. I don't want those old habits to crepe back. (scary). I love getting dressed in the morning, picking out my cloths has become a highlight of my day. (hard to believe)

I had my six month labs drawn today and all my levels are normal. My iron level is on the low side but still within the range. I was very nervous because my hair is falling out and I just thought my levels would be really off. But they are not. yea!!!!

well tomorrow is my six month anniversary. Hard to believe. So much has changed. I 'm starting a new job in 2 weeks and I had to go cloths shopping. I actually fit in a size 16 (huge for me). I feel so good about myself. I still exercise 4 to 5 times a week at curves ( love it there). I still try to take the mini challanges here on the site, to keep me honest. I am finding I can pretty much eat anything. I still have not tried to push the sugar over 10gms yet. I have gotten food stuck a few times. (not fun). I still tend to eat pretty quick. (trying to slow down). NOt drinking with meals is torture. (doing pretty good with that). I'm down to about 178lbs from 272lbs almost 100lbs (holy cow)!!!! The attention I'm getting from the opposite sex is so fun. I 've been out of the loop for a while, I had to ask my sister to let me know when I was getting hit on. (pretty sad). This is the best decision I have ever made and love to answer peoples questions when they ask. I attend the support group meetings and have met some really great people who are truly and inspartion.

well its official, my hair has started to fall out. I thought maybe I would be one of the lucky ones and it would skip that stage. Its not really noticable to anyone else but my bathroom and bedroom are filled with the signs. On a better note we took my daughter Randi to Dorney Park for her 9th birthday and we had the best time ever. I went on all the rides with her(I cant believe I went on some of them). This is the best feeling ever, to get on a ride and first of all fit in the seat not to mention have the lap belt and safty devices fit. I even went in the waterpark and get this, had on a bathing suit, no shorts to cover up. (Really big step for me). Her actual birthday is Tuesday and I am so excited. We were able to get her a Wii system, she is gonna freak out!!!! Well a couple more days and the 5 month post op mark will be apon me. Cant believe how fast the time has gone.
