24 weeks and 1 day!

Aug 16, 2011

Well here I am at 24 weeks and 1 day since my RNY Micropouch. I weighed in this morning at 182.8 which is 60 pounds from when I started this journey. Honestly I am feeling great and my confidance is soaring. I am still struggling with emotional hunger but I feel so much better I can not express. Clothes fit better. I am in size 14 and a large top right now down from my 22/24 on pants and a 2x  on tops. I never thought that I would be this small again. This is the smallest I have been since high school.

12 weeks

May 22, 2011

12 weeksHere I am at 12 weeks. The weight loss has stalled. I remain just in ONEDERLAND. I am less than a # away from being above 200 but as of right now I am just stalled. I have to increase my water intake as I have slacked on that a little bit and I want to upgrade the working out to 3 times a week instead of 2 :)

2 Months Post Op

Apr 30, 2011

Weight loss has slowed but it is coming off still! I am at 204 and so close to being under 200! I am so grateful for my surgery! I had to get new underwears on the fact that my old ones are literally sliding off...and my bras are not supporting the girls as they should. So far I am down 31 pounds since surgery and 39 pounds since pre op. I know there are many people who lose faster and it sometimes frustrates me but that is there journey and this is mine. I am slowly getting my energy pack and the sl b12 helps alot!

One Month Post OP!

Mar 27, 2011

I am so excited I am exactly one onth post op! I feel amazing! I truely do! I am down 29 lbs from my highest weight of 243 and down 21# from the day of surgery!  It seems unreal that I actually had the surgery and theat my weight is going down. I am walking but this week I will be going to be going to the gym steadily starting today at least 3x a week. I can't do any heavy cardio for another 2 weeks but that will come with time.  I am starting to feel my skin soften up. So I am using Bio Oil and will be excersizing to try to reduce the amout of loose skin I will have. I know there are so many other things that effect this but I will try to control as much as I can.

Ugh it has been a month since I posted. I got all my remaining staples out and it feels so amazing! The only downside is my tummy is itching like crazy!!!!! I LOVE the fact that I am never hungry. I forget to eat! I have never been not hungry. It is so amazing. So far I am down 22lbs! I cannit even believe it my self! This is unbelievable and I am hoping to be in wonderland by May! I am in size 20 jeans. I really cannot wait to fit into size 14! On Friday I am going to go back to the gym. I would love to be wearing 14's by the time the sumer rolls around! My belly is already starting to get mushy so I want to start doing some stretching and i will be investing in bio oil :)

Getting a Move on

Jan 02, 2011

Well I am going for my consulatation with Dr. Sapala on January 13th. I am gettig so excted. Dr. Sapala only offers the Sapala-Wood Micropouch, but my regular doctor recommended him. So I am going to give it a chance and here him out. I am a little nervous that the recovery is so long with the by pass but I know that in reality the band is not for me. So I have to get this done.
