Sep 15, 2010

It's been awhile since I have posted here.  Although I still stop in on a daily basis to read the posts and all.  My journey has seen its ups and downs, NSV, and everything in between. 
Let's see, I am down 71 lbs since surgery, flirting with onederland.  Who would of thought I would ever see this again.  Haven't seen onederland in almost 25 years.  Yes I am crying here.  I am down to a size 16.   I have to wear a uniform for my job as an emergency dispatcher, so they are not too happy getting new shirts for me every few months or so.  I am however providing my own pants cause their pants make me feel like I am in a clown suit or something, and I am tired of hiding behind big clothes. 
Now to the down side, I sufferred another heart attack in June.  So yes this had put a damper on my exercising schedule and all.    But I still stuck to the band rules with eating  and never gave up.  
It is September now, and I am back to using my Gazelle with Tony Little, and doing the WII fit, and my walking with Leslie Sansone.  
Football season is here, and my beloved Steelers are back for another great year.  I went to put on one of my favorite football jersey's (86 Hines Ward), and it is way too big.  So my hubby had to go buy me some new ones.    He is proud of me with how far I have come in this journey.   Without him, I would be lost.  He has been there with me thru it all this year, and seen me at my lowest and weakest, and encouraged me to go on.  He is my biggest cheerleader and I love him.
I started back to school, lol....I am taking several online courses:  medical transriptionist, and web page design.  I guess I was hoping the med transcript will land me a work form home job like my friend Debbie, and the web page design course will benefit me in moving my catalog sales to the web.  
I just ordered Jean's Bandwagon book, and can't wait til it gets here.  I am sure it is a great book just like her advice she gives here to everyone.
Well got to go here and get my butt in gear.   Have some exercising to get in.
Take Care!
