Sep 01, 2008

Well, I finally reached my goal weight, of 170 lbs, just 5 days short of my 18 month anniversary!!! I have lost 250 lbs total. Now I can not wait to get started on plastcis. I promise everyone I will put updated pics on here. For now, let me just shout from the rooftops..... WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!!

Happy Anniversary to me

Feb 11, 2008

Well, I made it. One year out. I am down 210 pounds. Just 20 to go to ONEDERLAND!!!  I never thought I would be this small again. I have hit a little plateau as of lately and did not lose any last month, but I know that is normal as you get closer to your goal weight. Now comes the fabulous task of trying to save money for plastics. I figure I have at least 15 to 20 pounds in skin to remove. To everyone considering surgery, DO IT!!!!!!! You will never regret it. To all my fellow loser, keep on keeping on. I promise I will post new pics soon as the ones on my profile are like from 80 lbs ago.

I have lost a person!

So I am officially at 170 lbs lost. I am just over 8 months out. I only have 50 lbs to onederland. I never imagined in my wildest dreams I would lose this much this fast. It has been amazing. Now we just have to prepare for the plastics journey.

Well, I finally hit the 100 pound lost mark. I am actually at 105 lost. I am so excited!!. I still have quite a way to go, but it is good to see the pounds coming off. I had surgery last week, and all this extra skin was a problem. Because I have such a thick panni, the doctor was not able to get to the area he needed to to perform my procedure. So, I will probably have to go through this agin in about 3 months. Plus, my incision site is now infected. This week has not been the best. of course, I havent really lost anything since surgery since I am dure my body is concentrating on healing. Well that's all for now.

Still Struggling

Apr 11, 2007

Well, its been 9 weeks and I have lost 76lbs. Doing pretty good, still having trouble eating some things. Of course, still having trouble getting all my fluids in too, but it is getting better. I live on milk. Been having trouble with my sinuses draining and making me queasy too. My family is being so supportive. My husband is as thrilled as I am with my weight loss, but he worries about me. He is a good hubby. Hopefully I can start adding some new foods soon, as all the ones I can eat are getting very tiresome. Okay wil update again soon. 


Doing Okay

Mar 24, 2007

Well I have now lost a total of 52 lbs since surgery. I think I should have lost more but everyone tells me that is great loss. I still have times when I think I regret this surgery, but then I look at the results and know that I did the right thing, It is so hard to go to a restaurant and watch my hubby and son eat while I nibble at whatever I could find suitable. I am living on milk and cottage cheese and tomato soup right now. I have tried a few solids but did not go well. I thin what depresses me most is I am still abel to wear the same clothes. They are loose, but I can wear them none the less. I think maybe I need to buy so some new ones just because these have so many memories. Cried my eyes out the other day because I went to pick up my son and a little boy in his class walks up to me and says"You're fat." I broke my heart. He was only 4 so I couldnt really blame him, he was just being honest. I have never been more glad to have had this surgery. I dont want my son to be like the boy on "What's eating Gilbert Grape" Okay well goona go for now, will give more updates later.
