Current weight 139lbs omg I can't believe it. I have not been this weight since I was in junior high school. People that have not seen me in a while hardly don't recognize me. I now hear all the time u look so much younger, and all I can do is smile and say thank u LORD. I now have so much more energy, it's still unbelievable to me, how much weight I have lost. I just pray that I can keep the weight off. I'm so glad I've got a second chance at life. I now love to shop, it's kind of scary because all I do is shop for new clothes. But oh well I 'm really good at bar-gin shopping. It's so much fun to shop for clothes now. When I was 245lbs one outfit use to cost me 100.00 now one outfit costs 50.00. What a big difference. My husband had gastric bypass surgery on 02/27/09. He is doing really well also. No dumping or N/V so far. he is 4 wks out today and he is down 32 pounds, way to go I'm so proud of you keep up the good work. Well now I'm caught up on my post. I will add some new pics soon.

Hello my oh family. I know it's been a while since I've last updated my page. Everyone knows how busy one can get. Well today I have some time to update. This is an update for my 9Th month post-op post. My current weight is 144lbs down from 245lbs total lost 101lbs whoo hoo,yeah baby. I'm so proud of myself, for all my hard work and dedication. This road has not been easy but it has all been well worth the ride. I need to get myself my century club card and post it on my page. I'm still losing weight but at a much slower pace, I guess that's good, due to I don't want to lose the weight to fast and start to look sickly. Everyone keeps telling me I'm looking smaller and smaller each time they see me. Boy oh boy it sounds so good to hear those words. This has been an awesome journey and I'm so glad I can share it with my oh family. I'm still able to eat whatever I want without getting sick, no nausea or vomiting. I don't know if that's good or bad. Because I know I can have whatever I want, and I don't want to start to pick up bad habits again. Yes I have tested the waters on my sugar intake and guess what no dumping. But I do notice If I consume to much sugar at once I get really sleepy, someone told me that's also a form of dumping. Other than that I do fine with other foods. I want to tell my family thanks for being there for me and being patient with me. My poor husband I chew him out every time he tries to tell me I shouldn't be eating some foods, but I know he is 100% right, so sorry baby.

My current weight so far as of today is 175 lbs Woo hoo for me and my surgery buddy Kim who has by the way left me in the dirt with the weight loss, but congrats to u girl, u are working ur tool. Oh by the way yes I am losing my hair. The hair loss has started this month, I'm currently taking my biotin faithfully but I guess I knew it was coming, but i did not prepare myself for it. Oh well It's just hair i guess it will grow back. Once again I want to thank GOD for giving me my life back, a big shout out to him, praise GOD. I have been doing some shopping for some new clothes, yes I'm in a size 14 pants whoo hoo for me. Where in the H*** are my boobies going, just disappearing on a sister. I have bought me some new push up bras to tie me over for now. Til next time Take Care and GOB BLESS.
