Girl, just look at you, with your pretty self. You are so beautiful! Not only are you beautiful, but you have the nerve to be talented and gifted by God. Hold your head up Girl and know that you are loved and appreciated. Don’t give the enemy any place to cause you to have low self-esteem or doubt. You are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made. This is your year to decree it and speak it! This is the year of new beginnings. So get your step on Girl, because God is faithful to perform all that He has promised to you! Be confident in Him and His word. The words you speak from your mouth determine your outcome. Why not speak good and positive things over your life Girl? You are not defeated but rather you are more than a conqueror. You have been through a lot in your life and look at you now, just as pretty and as strong as ever! Oh, how blessed you are. Look what God has done and look where He has brought you from. Begin to bless God and praise Him for all that He has done, and for making you so beautiful! He had you in His precious hands all the time. Your life is orchestrated by Him. He knows you and what is best for you. Believe that He has even greater things in store for you and your family. Girl, get over the silly stuff and grab hold of faith. Seek God as never before. Sure, times are hard, but God is Good! Learn to love who He has made you to be. There is no one like YOU. – Enjoy the Love of Jesus and Enjoy Life!

Long Time No Communicate
on August 7, 2010 7:41 am
I didn't realize that I haven't been on here for that long. That what happens when your life gets busy and complicated. I finally graduated from grad school in May so that was a relief however, I found  out that I was pregnant in January 2010.My special bundle will be here on September 12 or maybe before depends on her. I was really suprised, anxious, overjoyed, and worried all at the same time. I quess that is what first time moms do all the time. It has been worrying me sick to try make sure that I gain enough weight during my pregnancy in oreder to subtain her, however the doctor has assured me that even if I don't gain the requiremented 20 pounds that the baby is still gaining weight. So far that has been true and she continues to reach her growth milestones so that is a blessing in it self.

Today is just not a day to work
on November 30, 2009 6:52 am

I feel like crap and have a serious attitude today. I am highly irritable and my paitience is very limited. It isn't that anyone has done anyhing to me but I just don't feel like being bothered by anyone. These co-workers are standing my office having a very loud discussion and it is driving me crazy. One of them is Russian and I wish that she would just shut the hell up. I have enough going on in my life right now.

Happy Thanksgiving For Some
on November 25, 2009 9:06 am
I know that thanksgiving is suppose to be great time to get together with family and friends to eat and chat. But for me this year is my first thanksgiving since my surgery where I won't be able to eat the way that I used to. I will be finish and full while everyone else is moving onto there second and third plate. Not that I miss eating all that food. Ok Maybe sometimes It is just that I feel like the odd woman out because I will be the only one eating very little food. The kids at the children table will probably eat more than me. Anyway has anyone felt this way since their surgery.

on June 24, 2009 6:09 am
Does anyone know how long after weight loss surgery can you start to take birth control pills agains? I though that it was three months after the surgery but I am not sure.

Hello
on June 22, 2009 9:16 am
I really have not been on here for awhile. See what happens when you return back to work and school it takes too much of your time. My body has really been going through a change my old familiar craving have started to return. I have been craving sweets and my favorite sun chips ( french onion). Plus I have been strauggling to drink the protein shakes, take my medicine, and decrease my starch intake. I sometime would rather eat all of the mash potatoes and rice than eat the chicken or meat selection. This is crazy because I know that I need the protein from the chicken not the starchy food.  Anyway I am still maintaining my weighloss but at a slower rate.

My Story

Hello, My name is Lucretia (Lucy). I am 28 years old and currently weight 255lbs. This is the most I have ever wore so I am very sad to be this big. I have struggled with my weight since I was in elementary school. I have always been one of the biggest girls in my class, so I often felt like I didn't fit in. Most of my family members are either a little or alot overweight both on my maternal and paternal side, so it was just something that was accepted. I have tried several different dieting plans like getting b6 and b12 shots to eating weight watcher, slimfast. Joining gym after gym only to start and stop every time. Losing weight for me is not easy even though I try and try to loss weight on my own it just wasn't working. I started looking at having possible weight loss surgery when I was diagnosed in October 2008 with PCOS.  I want to see myself having children in my near future and living a healthy life. I have no energy and get out of breath from doing the smallest things. This not a life I want for myself so now is my time to stand and improve my life.
