well I think my bosy is just really angry at me ... I find I have to eat a lot for my body to lose weight... I literally had to force myself to eat more yesterday to see if i would lose anything and I did.  So I guess I jsut need to take in more calories! I never thought I would have to say that... lol! EAT MORE, it jsut sounds weird!

So my life was starting to settle down a bit so i decided I now had the time to start really kicking but i nthe exercise department... so I started running.. now i'm up to 2 miles.  BUT the scale has not moved since my birthday so almost two weeks!!! Its killing me, I really cannot stand it! and my frustration level is extremely high... 

Today is my 22nd birthday and my goal was to be under 200 lbs well I did it!  I'm weighing in at 196.8 lbs! that 68.2 lbs lost since surgery! It is soo exciting to see the way I look and its very weird to be getting compliments from family members and my boyfriends family... but it is a great feeling that people are noticing!  So I have lost 50% I'm half way to my goal, and things are going so well, better than I had expected!  I do not dump, I can eat small amounts of jsut about anything with no problems at all! :)  Life is WONDERFUL!

so the scale has started moving in my favour again... which i always like.  i have increased my protein and have been making sure I get all of my fluid in.  I haven't been eating too many carbs or too much of anything else, jusst to try to get it moving... protein shakes and bars! life has been boring the last week to try and get it moving again, but i had to try something.  I want to be down to onederland by my birthday 1 week from today!  So i will have to try really hard this next week, so i can see the scale move under 200 by the 31st.  

Dawn and i also got together on the monday holiday.. WOW does she ever look amazing,  and she is still losing every week,  shes a hard core exerciser! lol...  I can't wait till this class that i'm taking is over and i can exercise more, and enjoy this beautiful weather we have had here in windsor, b/c it does not come to often!

I was a little down this past week as the scale has been giving me some troubles (ITS NOT MOVING) lol....  so I just figured out the % of excess weight lost and its 40% yeah that makes me happy :-)

I have always been smaller through my sholders and chest, but i find i have been losing weight differently. Maybe its just because i haven't been this size in 4 years and cannot remember. And because i am younger i am finding that the clothes that fit me when i was at an even younger age fit me differently now, even though i weight the same. (does that make sense?)  My mini goal for myself is fitting into a pair of tommy hilfiger jean shorts size 16... i wore them when i was 14. i am a ways from fitting them, but at least i can pull them up, about 5 inches lost would probably get them done up!

Well i have only shared that i had this surgery with a select few people.  My parents and brother.  My boyfriend and his immediate family.  And a few very close friends.  I am finding that no one that didn't know i had surgery, has even noticed the significant amount that i have lost, which i suppose is really great, b/c i guess that means i hide my curves well.  but at the same time i find it hard to keep it a secret.  My family is very opinionated.  And although i love them all, i would jsut rather not hear what they have to say!  I  think that it is none of there business.  This was my choice... but unfortunately that is not how it will appear to them.  So as it stands i will still continue to keep things on the down low.  A personal choice, but for now its the best choice for me.  And it will probably change down the road, but having struggled with my weight over the years, i don't want them to think this is just a FAD diet that won't work...  I know it will work, because it is working!!!

so i have lost 34% of my excess weight in only 2 months! yay! i weight 219 lbs... i have lost 46 lbs (from 265)  my actual 2 month day is on the 21st so i will weigh in then as well.. so i will post again  if there is any change, but i just could not wait! I am so excited.  I was looking at my weight watchers weight in book and i am even less than what i weighed last summer!  my goal is to be at 200 for my 22nd birthday... as soon as exams are done i'm going to start working out everyday for an hour, i have not had any time to while i am away at school.  i only work out on the weekends, b/c its too cold to go out side and i have no room to bring the stationary bike or tredmill from home.  I never thought i would be able to lose this much weight before, WLS was the best thing i could have ever done for myself!  I do not have one single regret! NOT ONE!

Well I am starting my exams next week, with my practical exam today! AHH am i nervous, i just cannot wait until school is done and i get a few weeks off!  I am hopefully taking a summer course, but it is full and i am on the waiting list, b/c the university would not allow any other students to registar until we have our winter grades, well of course the class is going to be full, so i had to complain to the head of my department and such and they are trying to get me and some other classmates into this anatomy course, we shall see how it all pans out.  Hopefully I get in b/c if i don't someones head is going to be on the chopping block! i got a complete run around while trying to registar for this course and i find it absoluting erritating that people tell you one thing and then do another... well enough for my vent! lol

i went shopping with my grammy (my moms, mom) on wednesday and we went to the addition elle, MXM, penningtons store here in chatham, Drum roll please! I fit into an petit 18 AMAZING! it was very exciting... it is my cousins wedding shower/bachlorette party this sat and she bought me a new outfit for it.. I swear i feel like a million bucks in these jeans, I called my mom and said my butt looks smaller in these jeans, its great, she said "its b/c your butt is smaller, lol"  Just a great moment!

i am going to try and just do protein only and water for the next couple of days, to clense by body... I haven't been getting to all of my totals, close but not hitting them, maybe it will boost my weightloss.  I have to start working out more, I have been really lax with that b/c school is so busy right now!  I also cannot wait to get home tonight, I didn't bring my scale, so i haven't been able to weight myself all week! It was torture! lol
