Well, I was stuck for a while and now with of course trials of life. The scale moved! I can't believe I am 156 wearing a size 10! I feel good. Going to the gym all the time. Spending well time with the Lord. Even though there are earth quakes in my life, God is in control. I can trust in him and him only. I hope to continue to lose the weight. Still thinking I am a bit chunkey so would like to be under 140's maybe less. We'll see. Miss this sight.

I am down over a 100 lbs!  I am actually down..108 lbs!  I feel good.  I excercise at least 3 days a week at the gym sometimes more.  I have been good about not eating carbs like breads, pasta, rice, tortillas.  But this week found myself dipping into these things!  So I will nip it now.  I want to do good and feel the best I could ever.  Thank God! 

Well its been way too long to not write. I love this website because I really don't like support group. At least the one I had been going through. This journey has been amazing. I really can't believe my changes. Physically of course. But how much my love and passion for food is different. Cant say its done..but I am not as 'addicted' as i was. I am not cured by any means..just really feel like I have secret helper. I excercise about 4-5 days a week. I love it. I can't go too many days with out it. If its a problem I do a this amazing 3.8 mile walk on the beach. That is usually a day I am burned out of the machines at the gym. It helps to get to know the people that are regulars there..accountability..my other secret helper. I don't think I have ever felt so healthy. My skin is clear, I have a good measure of energy, I always take my vitamins, I am deteremined to at least drink 6 glasses of water, my house is clean! I do wonder..did the Dr. make my pouch small..is it going to survive the next 4 decades..will I learn from all of this? I pray and hope so. I am also reminded..this journey is ONE day at a time! I pray I would not let myself go and not take care of my lil pouch. It's a life changing pouch..I don't want to be stupid and stretch it out or let it go. I do still believe this is a gift. Just a few random thoughts..and am one pound to be under 200! Hallelujia! Keeping my eye on the prize..Help me Lord!

I figured its been a while since I have updated.  I can now honestly tell I lost weight!  Yah!  I was wearing a comfortable size of 24 before surgery, now I bought my first jeans!  On clearance for $11 buck size 16!  I have lost about 57lbs so far.  I only weigh once a week so I dont become wierd...which I do when I weigh everyday.  
I am thankful for the surgery.  Its not like my weight is coming down fast...in comparison to other wls patients...but yah, i guess 57lbs in 3months is fast.  I still need to be delivered from chocolate.  I unfortunately dont get sick from chocolate, just flour tortillas.  Which I hope to never have one again!  
I feel healthy, I excerise 3-4 days a week at the gym..feel energetic..and confident.  
I am thankful!  So todays weight..is 231...and looking forward to being under 200's!  Can't wait!

Wow...its amazing...i wake up thinking...Did I really have "THE" surgery?  I can't believe it some days.  I have lost roughly 28 pounds.  I get full quick!  I am struggling with my water.  But i feel good.  I will say its hard making food for the family and then having my soup or jello or shake...I hope it is not hard like this forever.  Like my addiction to food will be over.  I am still on pureed foods..for two more weeks.  I could careless about Thanksgiving food.  I will probably have a whipped vegie soup that day.  I am so GRATEFUL today...I had the surgery!  WOW...God is good.  He provides...in His time..

Wow!  It's done!  Or started?  I am home and feeling pretty good today.  The doctor said it was a success and also took my gall bladder and repaired my hiatal hernia in my esophagus!  So I am on a charge to a healhy life!  I am getting used to the liquids...protien drinks, water, jello, broth, cream of chicken soup...not the most variety...but I don't want to be addicted to food anymore! So this is what I need!  Looking forward unto HIM.....
