185 well I've lost 75lbs
on May 30, 2010 9:41 pm

185 is what I weighted in at today and it's just so unbelievable. I'm in shock with my transformation. Its just very hard to take in. I'm loving the shopping, but I'm still wanting to buy things that are way to big for me. I love the way my body is looking and feeling and I'm feeling so confident right now.  I know this feeling is going to last forever... I'm just fighting age now and not fat, it's crazy.

Now I do have to tell you that I'm regreting the braces.... my mouth is killing me, I have sores all in my mouth and my teeth are aching and there is no way to eat with out extreme amounts of pain. The price of beauty sucks.

Braces @ 40
on May 25, 2010 7:52 am
2 days until I get braces. 40 years old and finally getting braces. for years I wouldn't smile and if I just had to laugh I would cover my mouth. I would take a pic because I was to asshamed of my weight and my crocked teeth. Now that I have lost so much weight, I'm ready to also change me teeth. I'm so excited and scared at the same time. I'm also doing this with my best friend, so we will both have braces. I'm so lucky and blessed to have her.

Everyday gets better and better... but somedays are...
on May 24, 2010 9:28 am
My emotional state is every where... trying to figure where my life will lead. I think my husband is nervous about my changing... I'm nervous about our relationship. He says that things will change with him and his attitude with me... but he falls right back into it after a few days of being wonderful he throws it all away. I know that right now is a scary time for the both of us and we will do everything we can to work through this. We have been married 21 years.... it's worth the fight. Weight loss is very slow but I did go down to 189 this week and that is exciting. I'm lucky to be losing 1 pound a week now. I'm walking 3 nights a week, but I know this isn't enough. I feel wonderful, my body feels and looks good. I'm happy right now and excited about my future.

70 Pounds Gone Forever!
on May 18, 2010 6:40 am
Is it really possible that I have lost 70 pounds? I just can't believe it. Now I have 40 pounds to my goal and 25 to my doctors goal. Its crazy to think this is really me. I'm so excited about my life and where it's going.

Tough times....
on May 4, 2010 8:52 am
Relationship issues at home and with friends... I don't want to blame anyone else, so I need to look at me and see if my personality has changed since losing the weight. I know I have alot more confidence and I carry myself in different way. I feel good and I know I look so much different. I can see it in peoples eyes that haven't seen me in a while, they are shocked and lost for words. I know this is all hard for people to take in, I don't think that people really want to see you to change. I feel that I want to look for new friends that didn't know me before surgery. I want to do new things and I want to go go go. It's all new and scary. One good thing is the scale is moving again and I'm affraid to say that cause the minute I say it, it will stop moving again.

My Story

My name is Sherry and I'm from Virginia Beach, VA. I am 40 years old and I'm married and have 3 children. I'm at 40 BMI, I have diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea, I scared and I'm nervous and I'm ready to change my life. I want to do this now before it's to late. Plus, I'm tired of feeling and looking this way. I want to feel good and look sexy again.
