Wow, 18 months ago I had surgery. 388 pounds......today I am down 195 pounds.  I way 185.  Who would have ever "thunk" it!  I am so happy.  I don't regret it at all.  I just wish I had done it sooner.  I have been in a stall for about 6 weeks now.  I was a little discouraged, but then I got thinking, YOU HAVE LOST ALMOST 200 POUNDS!  Don't get all worried about a stall, celebrate what you have accomplished and work on getting the rest of it off.  I have the rest of my life!  

I do need some plastic surgery,  Gonna work on that.....try to figure out how I am going to afford it!  With or without it, I'm still a happy girl!

 

I haven't posted in a very long time!  But today is a very special day!  I finally made it to onederland!  I can't believe it.  Last year this time I was over 300 pounds, looking forward to getting to into the 200's!  What a difference a year makes.  I am healthier and happier than I have been in years.  Looking forward to what this year holds!!!!!!!

I can't believe it...this is the first Thanksgivng in years that I haven't gained weight over the holiday!  I actually lost!  Unbelievable!  So happy, only 69 pounds till my goal!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, what a difference a year makes.  I am 104 pounds lighter, still have a ways to go!  But I am getting there.  This is my last year in the 40's.  I will be the big 49!  I thought I would be sad about it, but actually I am kinda happy and excited!  I know where I have come from and where I am going!  SO  WOOOHOOOO!

I am so happy.  Things are going great.  I am down 88 pounds as of last week.  I am trying to only weigh myself once a week, so I won't get so preoccupied with a number.  But I will say it was nice to get under the 300 pound marker.

I am so glad that I took the step to have surgery.  I would advise anyone who has weight issues and has tried and tried and failed, to give it a try.  I don't regret it.   I don't see the things that I had to give up, and see all that I am gaining.  It has been quite a ride, and I am enjoying it.  It is the first time in a long time that I have actually felt good about myself.

Lovin Life!!!!!!

Sometimes I wonder how I got to this place in my life!  Then I remind myself..I did this!  I can't blame anyone but myself. 

But the exciting thing is, times...they are a changing!  I started my process actually back around 2005.  Due to circumstances beyond my control, long story short..insurance denied!  Fast forward a few years...different job, different insurance...bingo!  Started the process this time, back in January!  So now....insurance approved!  Surgery date set for Wednesday, May 4th. 

So now...I am a counting down the days!  Started trying to lose some on my on!  I have lost 25 lbs!  I am so excited!

I am looking forward to all the things that I have not been able to do for such a long time!  Looking foward to walking, shopping, amusement parks, airplane seats...the list goes on and on!

As I said before....AND SO IT BEGINS!!!!!!!!!
