It's been a long time.

May 01, 2012

I have been busy with my family that I haven't had time to write anything on here.
We have had friends in from Arizona and friends move back here and another friend shipped out to the sandbox!
I am now down 50 lbs and feeling great!
I am even seeing saggy skin and yes my hair is falling out but it will grow back soon! I love my Biotin!
I am back drinking coffee and loving it, I really hated the headaches.
I am still on my anti-nausa pills, I will be having an upper G.I. to see if there is a blockage.
I am also happy to report that I am inches away from being in ladies sizes and not women's!
So happy about that!
My sister in law gave me 5 pairs of jeans and as of today they are to big! I keep taking them in! YAY me!
So how is everyone doing?

Now that the aspertame thing is done.
And I have lost the weight I gained from that, I am doing great!
I have been busy spring cleaning and we friends in from Arizona, and more friends coming in from Arizona next month. Busy busy busy!
I am 3 months out and 55lbs down and feeling great!
I have been taking my pants and am even wearing a size 7 underoos!
I spend most of time walking the mall very fast, and then I jump on my friends exercise thingy later at night.
And I am on Facebook.
How is everyone else doing?

Asperteme poisoning,,yep I have it!

Mar 01, 2012

I was digging the new Crystal Light energy drink until I started gaining weight, I blew up and my face is huge!
I thought I was allergic but after talking to the doc it is Asperteme piosoning. And all I can do is drink more water and add more exercise to my day. So now I walk the mall twice a day. That's fine but the swelling is soemthing else. I put on 10 lbs of water weight and most of it is in my face and legs!
I will be reading labels beter in the future!

Finding new things to eat all over again.

Feb 24, 2012

I am learning to take it slow with trying new things. I love salads but have only had a leaf here and there, and my father in law found butter lettuce, and it's really good for roll up sammiches. But it goes right thru me really fast, so I have all the fixins for a salad and no lettuce. It all works in the end. And I can have spanish rice as long as it has sour cream in it, I don't want to risk heartburn.
I am also eating 1/2 cup of some foods now! Now food is tasting better now that I can eat more than 3 bites. I'm still having 2 protein shakes a day, morning and bedtime. So far it's working ,I will know more on the 6th when I go in for labs.
And the best news is NO MORE BP MEDS!!!! It's on been 10 years on them.

Things are going good.

Feb 11, 2012

Things are going good, the nut said that I need to eat more food!!
She is so funny. I'm good to get my 3 protein shakes a day and eating 4 times a day. And she was surprised that I am not eating 1/2 cup of food yet.
Sorry but the 1/4 cup is plenty for now!
I still can't have sugar free anything unless I want to spend life in the bathroom on the potty. Oh well. I haven't had sugar in so long it really doesn't matter.
And I confess,,I did have Starbucks Mocha, it was a large and yes it had whole milk in it! I was craving the coffee and the whole milk! It took me 2 hours to  drink it,, and it was SOOO good! And that has been my only cheat!
My birthday is Friday and Sunday we are having a party and I wont even have any cake,mostly because the smell of the sugar is to much. When we ordered it I had to stand away from the counter so I wouldn't chuck my cookies! Hubby was giggling at me! He oodered me a purple Harley cake! Love that man so much!
Eating out is and adventure now. Did you know that at some Red Robin restaurants you can get your burger or chicken or fish in lettuce leafs? Well, you can, just ask and they will do it! No kidding!
I have been freezing my leftovers from dinner for later use. When I make the family steak or pork chops, I have a wide choice of things for my dinner! Including homemade chinese!
The nut told me that I could have whole wheat pasta, but I eat so little of it that I don't think it is worth buying. And I still miss bread, and will make bread for the family. I am to worried about it forming a lump in my tummy.And getting stuck.
I am only weighing in at the docs once a month, the scale is my enemy at home.
Enough rambling.
How is everyone else doing, are things going good,can I help anyone?
Love you all!

4 weeks out.

Jan 30, 2012

I have finally gotten the stall to pass by uping my calories and protein.
I am down 30 lbs to date! YAY.
That makes 1 lbs a day.
I wish it were more but I guess it's better this way. Slow and steady.
I was told pre surgery that after I wouldn't be hungery, well that's not so, I am hungery all the time! And I can't get enough ice water either.
I must be mutant or something.
Gotta love the giggle gas! Giggle and OOPS there it is!

Not happy with food anymore.

Jan 27, 2012

I know it's all in my head but, I am really trying hard to eat.
And I know it's because I only get a few bites, so food isn't interesting anymore. I have 3 protein shakes and eat 3 times a day.
I'm thinking about going back to the pureed Progresso soups.
I just can't stand the look of the food anymore.
I'm getting depressed over it as well.
I have been told that this to shall pass,I hope it does.
