lifes changes.....
Jul 06, 2009
I guess this is a woe is me post it is July and my little Madison will be turning 4 on Saturday the 11th and I feel like I am doing it alone. I am doing all the yard clean up, all of the B-day shopping working 50 + hours per week taking care of the kids when I am not working I missed some appointments to my support groups which I vowed I never would, I found myself falling off track, and I get nothing but bitching from Scott. I am unable to get to the gym because my car is out of commission. So I am walking but it isnt enough, I am at a stall. People told me that relationships change and people change but I dont think I have changed, my relationship with Scott is falling apart but it isnt over this whole weightloss surgery. It is about money & the 4 kids and past issues that keep getting brought up. Is life ever fair, just when I was taking 2 steps forward to make myself healthier and happier my whole life falls apart around me. I took 5 steps back and not feeling happy and I should be feeling on top of the world with 100 pounds gone forever, but I am not !!! I am getting comments from him that all I am doing is thinking about myself and I dont see it. I always do for everyone else before me if I was thinking of just myself I wouldnt be walking to the grocery store or skipping my support groups or walking to and from work when I have to. I am tired all of the time and I am trying to get an appointment for labs to make sure everything is ok I fall asleep early and I get woken up because he wants to go get a coffee or get something so that cause a fight I am up at 3:45 in the morning to go to work yes I get tired at 9:00 at night and I think he says I am thinking of myself because I want to go to bed at 10:00 and my kids are not the best sleepers so sometimes 2 of them are awake and he will tell me I am not spending time with them!!! GRRRRRRRR I get so mad am I in the wrong please tell me if I am being selfish I am not a selfish person and I will never be one nplease dont judge me just tell me if you think I am in the wrong !!!
It has been a while...

Here I sit on Valentines Day hoping all is good for everyone... I have finally got out of the plateau I was in and I am now back at work and feeling pretty good !!! I am thrilled to say I have lost about 70 pounds as of today and I couldnt be happier about it. I have myself in a routine now and I am remembering to take my pills pretty much all of the time, that was a hard thing to get used to but now it gets easier every day.learning more things every day and cant wait to learn more I love my RNY !!!

4 week stall
Jan 01, 2009
Well, it has been a long week with the snow and the holidays...been really tired had the winter cleaning plague, I threw out eight trashbags worth of JUNK!!! I think I am scaring my kids...going hay wire on the house and getting ready to go back to work! YUK!!!
My dr told me no heavy lifting well actually no lifting more than 5 pounds for 6-8 weeks, I have a job that requires lifting and standing all day long, I was told and on my discharge papers it said to stay out of work for 6-8 weeks well, my disability will only pay me for 4 weeks and the first two dont count !!! So I have been out of work for 4 weeks now and I am getting my check tomorrow for the 2 weeks.
So now I feel like I am forced to go back to work because of woderful financial problems that I will face without the disability checks. If it wasnt winter it wouldnt be so hard but oil kills me...
well enough of the rambleing...I will post later
Twas the night before surgery....
Dec 22, 2008
'Twas the night before surgery,
when all through my gut
not a morsel was stirring,
not even a nut."
The suitcase was packed
by the back door with care,
in hopes that a new me
would soon return there.
I lay nestled,
snug in my bed
while visions of calories
danced in my head;
And me in my plus size
pajamas and wrap,
had just settled in
for a long restless nap.
When deep in my mind
there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my dreams
to see what was the matter.
Away to my fridge
I flew like a flash,
ripped open the door
and drooled at the stash.
The moonlight reflecting
off the beautiful snacks
gave a luster of radiance
to all on the racks.
When, what to my wondering
eyes should appear,
but an array of the comfort foods
I hold so dear.
With a familiar feeling
of all those I'd pick,
I thought in a moment
I just might be sick.
More lovely than angels
their voices they came,
and they whistled and shouted
and called me by name;
"Now ****a, now french fries,
now chocolate galore
on cheescake, on ice cream,
on donuts and more!"
From the tip of my tongue,
to the bottom of my toe,
I will miss you all more
than ever you'll know.
As an addict that shakes
and stirs as he sits,
I'll mourn the loss
of my delectable hits.
So back to my bed
I went with great haste,
and settled back down
with nary a taste.
And then in an instant,
in pre-op I sat,
nervously waiting
to no longer be fat.
As I sat deep in thought
and adjusted my gown,
in came my surgeon
in one single bound.
He was dressed all in scrubs,
from his head to his feet
and he seemed very calm
as he eyed me like meat.
He looked at my chart,
with his scope gave a listen;
I don't think he noticed
my eyes start to glisten.
He was chubby and plump
he could lose some himself,
and I laughed when I saw him
in spite of myself.
A wink of his eye
and a twist of his head,
soon gave me to know
I had nothing to dread.
He spoke barely a word
as he prepped for his work,
he paused for a moment,
then turned with a jerk.
And laying a finger
aside of his face,
and giving a nod,
out of the room he did race.
He checked in the next day,
to his students gave a whistle,
and away they all flew
like a down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim
as he walked out of sight,
"speedy thinness to you
and a healthier life!"
