Wow, I must say that I can't believe that its been 10 months since I had wls surgery. It has been a journey like no other, but I would do it again if I had to. My current weight is 190 pounds. I cant remember the last time I weighed 190 lbs. However, I do remember being like 12 or 13 years old weighing 175 pounds. N\ow here I am 24 years old and trying to get back down to that size. I goal has fluctuated between 170 and 180 lbs. I like were I am now but I really need to get in the gym and lift some weights. I must admit that I have gotten a lil comfortable and lazy and I haven't worked out in a while. Its been a struggle. I need some encouragement and motivation.  My friends and family have been very supportive and are trying to  motivate me buts its not working. Im just being soooo lazy.  Maybe with the weather change I would become more motivated to go to the gym. We shall see.

I'm getting a lil irritated with people who are telling me that I've lost too much weight. I think I look good, I mean Im not trying to be conceited but I dont think I have that sickly look. I dont know, what do you think???

Before surgery, I didnt think I would be interested in plastic surgrey but now that Im 10 months out, I been thinking alot about it. I know my insurance wouldnt cover that so it'll be completely out of pocket but its has been something that I've been considering. Im just a lil dissatisfied with my breast and my chunky thighs. When people say you look a lot different with you clothes off, its soooo true. Im not trying to scare anyone who is cinsidering wls surgrey, Im just being real. But not everyone will have the same concerns or issues with their body, everyone is different. But knowing what I know now about how I look and how I feel I still think I made the right choice about having wls and would do it again in a heart beat.

Ive been fortunate enough to not have any complications and I pray to God that it stays that way.  Till next time, peace!

SWEET.........
WOW im so greatful and I feel so blessed. I've lost 100 pounds since surgery in October. That just seems so amazing to me that I cant even put it into words how Im feeling. I just cant believe that 6 months ago I was 100 pounds heavier. Just walking around and doing normal activites is so much easier. I was once told that 1 lbs is equal to 4 sticks of butter. So if thats true then I've lost 400 sticks of butter. WOW just the visual of having 400 sticks of butter on your body is disturbing.  

BITTER.......
Although i'm extremely happy that I've lost 100 pounds I'm getting some anxiety about the lose skin. I know I was warned and informed before surgery but now its becoming a reality. Im starting to notice the extra skin in my stomach, arms and legs. And its being to scare me a little. With clothes obviously its not noticable but w/o clothes its kinda scary. Im trying to lift some weights (although Im not as consistent) to try and build muscles. Im 50 pounds way from my goal but we'll see how that goes!  Wish me luck OH FAM! I will post some 6 months post op photos soon.

I cant wait for the weather to change because Im getting tired of going to the gym. I knew I was going to get bored eventually. Although I like the benefits of excerising, I just need a change of scenery. I would like to start walking outside, maybe go to the track or something. My gym membership should be up soon, so then maybe i can do something else. Im also excited about spring and summer because I will be able to shop for some cute summer clothes. Summer here I come!

Ok I had my four month post-op yesterday and i was a complete wreck because i hadn't weighed myself in awhile so I was nervous about "that number". In my mind I knew I lost weight it was just a matter of how much. So after waiting 1hr and a half for my appointment with my surgeon I finally get lead to the back to hop on the scale. And low and behold it said 239!!!!!!!!!! OH MY FREAKIN GOSH. I couldnt believe it. I was absolutly estatic and I couldnt keep the smile off my face. My surgeon was very pleased with my progress and told me to keep up the good work. I have to go see him in two months, which will be my 6 month post-op. I just have so much to be thankful for that I cant even begin to thank God enough for all that He's done for me. The way things are going I should be at my goal in no time!

This past week I've slacked on the gym but i plan on going back full force starting monday. I think i deserve this little break but I dont plan on breaking for much longer. i have to get on the ball so that in two months I would be 200lbs. (fingers crossed!)

Well, to me it seems like the weight is coming off slowly. So I need to watch my carbs more. Ive been exercising like crazy. It feels good to have lost 64lbs. Im proud of myself but after reading other ppls blogs, I feel like I should have lost more. I know everyone is different and I know that Ive accomplished alot. ITs probably all in my head and just how I am perceiving myself. So Im just trying to remain positive and contiue to exercise, drink my protein shakes and watch my carb intake.
