Ok, so here goes, I have lost a total of about 65 lbs (I want to lose about 45 more). I am a little over 3 months out. I have gone from a size 26/28 dress/shirt to 18/20 and from a 22/24 pants to a 16w. I am no longer on meds...
Terrell has lost 102 lbs (he wants to lose about 150 more). He will be 3 months out next month. He is no longer on meds either.
He has been cool through this whole thing! He has had his moments....but, I mean...I realize everyday how much I really love him. And I do LOVE MYSELF SOME HIM!

Im pitiful, I know!! lol, but Terrell is doing good....he isnt doing the protein however....so I have been doing alot of fussing. When he went in for his 2 week check he had lost 35 lbs. When I went in for my 6 week...I had lost 35. I am current about 8/9weeks out, and have lost 45 lbs, and have returned to work. I want to lose 60-65 more lbs.
He will go for his 6 week check on 1/15, and will possibly be released back to work. This has been fun I must say! I am trying to get a workout routine going, since I am back at work, and we have a free gym there.
Most of my clothes are too big, and lucky for me my mother likes to shop.....and she fluctuates in sizes....We can almost wear the same size in pants. She is about a 14/16 on top, and 16/18 on the bottom, has big hips and small waist....So anyway, I went shopping at her house before she took some pants to get them altered. I came out with 2 new pairs of jeans. Size 20, and one was a 16, but the 16 came from the Avenue, and their pants run big. And I have several sweaters and blouses!
I am wearing a 1X as well, that is a WOW for me!!!
Anywho, till next time!

Ok, he had his surgery on Friday...the surgery went well. On Saturday he started spitting up and vomiting blood. This went on from around 10 AM and ended and 1:30 AM, so about 13 1/2 hours. On Monday and Tuesday he started pooping straight blood....not poop and blood, but straight blood. They said that this blood was from the throat...remember they had problems getting the breathing tube in.....Anywho, the blood was really dark in color, so it was old blood...Anyways, he lost alot of blood and had to have some blood transfusions on yesterday. They said if his blood count goes back up they will release him sometime this afternoon. He has been there since Friday....
So that is what is going on with him.

It is done!!!! We got to the hospital @ 7:30 AM. After waiting for almost an hour and a half, a nurse came and told us that the doctor is 3 surgeries behind because he got called into an emergency surgery with another doctor.We waited, and finally at 2:30 they took him back. I got a call at 3 o'clock saying that the surgery has started and that they were able to get the breathing tube in.
At 4:30 the PA came in and said the surgery was done and was a success....and best of all it was done laproscopically!!!
YAHOOOOOOO!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!! I just came home to feed the dog, and I'm on my way back to spend the night there!! TTYL Terrell's Surgery

OKAY!!!! Wow, so we get to the hospital, and they are running about a hour and a half behind.....They get him prepped, and rolled him into the OR. Almost 2 hours later, the doc comes in and tells us that Terrell is doing fine.....BUT....they were unable to do the surgery!!!!! 
He said the anesthesiologists were unable to get the breathing tube in because Terrell's tonsils are so big, and that his throat adenoid area started bleeding, and they thought it best to stop. They said that had they known this, they would do this while Terrell is still conscious........
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, he is tentatively rescheduled for 12/5. We will see how this goes. If it is God's will then it will happen!! Yall continue to pray for us.
