I am such a roller coaster.  I go up and go down.  Never happy on where I am at.  My lowest was 122 and that was way to low so what did i do I ate everything and now I am 140 lbs.  I am happiest at around 129 to 132 so I am on a mission to lose that 10 lbs.  This means protein shakes and lots of water.  I need to shrink my stomach because I can eat a lot now.  Not like before but more than i use to eat a lot more.  When I went to Vegas I had the Ox Tail Soup and ate the whole big bowl.  OMG I did this 3X in 5 days.  I loved it so much I had to have it.  Well I did enjoy my self and I was on vacation so its all go.  Now back to reality.

Me and my baby went to Vegas last week.  It was so much fun but I drank like a fish.  O well like I said back to basics.

I haven't been around lately and been making bad food choices but I am living life to the fullest and having fun.  Yes I party, yes I eat crap, yes if I eat to much icecream I dump.  I do need to make better food choices but I am watching my weight to make sure that I stay in normal BMI.  I hold off when I have to and excercise when needed.  Actually I should excercise everyday. 

This past weekend was my son's birthday and we went hiking.  It was so much fun.  I should do things like this more often with the family.  If you go hiking you don't even know you are excercising.  I am feeling the burn today let me tell you.  Here are some pictures.

Me and my children.  I wish my 9 year old was in this picture.  He was upset that we was going home.

At the end of the trial.  Love Hawaii in the winter...lol





My baby after the hike.  She was so tired... PRICELESS!!!

We had a banquet for Castle Hospital because they made Center of Excellence.  I hooked up with my friend Big Mike.  Well I think now we just call him Mike.  He has come a long way.  We all have.  Dr. Fowler changed our lives.  I am so glad to have met this man.

Wow I look like I was about to give birth.



This is us today.  Me (lost 130 lbs) Dr. Fowler, Mike (lost 425 lbs).  Told mike to buy clothes.  Don't give him justice.  He is an awesome man. 



These are only patients that came.  It was a good night.

Its me Asia.  Haven't updated or checked in for awhile.  Well 2009 was a big year for me.  I lost 125 lbs which is exactly what I was now.  Life has been really good.  I can really do anything that my heart desires to do now.  I got my panni removed in early October and got my twins back early December.  (Merry Christmas to me)  For me the most difficult surgery was the boobs.  Feels like an elephant on my chest but I have to get use to them.  One is higher than the other but the surgeon said that happens 99% of the time when going under the muscle.  He said that it will drop within 2 to 6 months.  The other one really looks good.  When doing my profile that is the higher side.  All in all I am doing great.  2010 will be a hard year for me but I can do it.  2009 was about me and finally i did it for me.  2010 is about giving back to the family.  My kids, they are my life and they know it.  Happy New Years everyone!!!

Aloha,

I have been stressing big time and dropped another 8 lbs.  I my marriage is now broken.  Actually it was broken long time ago.  He fooled around and now I am finally telling him to get out.  The good news is I found someone else and he is sooooooo nice.  He is a big guy with a heart of gold.  He wants to take care of me and my children.  I told him why does he want to take on 5 kids that is lots of baggage.  He told me never to call them that.  They are gifts.  His only son is so excited that now he plays with all my kids.  My youngest boy and his son were on the same baseball team.  That is how we met. 

That is what is going on with me.  One big drama!!!!

Well for me 9/9/09 was a great day.  It was my one surgery anniversary.  In one year I dropped down from a size 24 jeans and today I am a size 6.  I started at 240 and now I am between 132 to 137 any given day.  I am not trying to lose anymore so as soon as I hit 132 I am eating a lot more junk.  Not good but I really don't want to lose more.  Never thought I would ever in my life say that. 

At the moment I am in the process of getting my panni removed.  My health insurance will cover that and my copay will be $15.00 if I go for the full tummy tuck that will be $7500 so I will go with the cheaper one.  The boobs are sad but now I can shop at Victoria Secrets and make them feel all dressed up.

This was the best year for me.  For me it was pretty easy but I also stuck to the rules for the first 6 months and really used that time to lose 80% of my weight I wanted to lose.  I am now a regular person with a normal appetite.  I notice that I am hungry a lot now but I snack on lots of fruits or if there is steak in the refridge I will take a couple pieces and eat that.  It really feels me up.  Better than chips where I think I could eat the whole little bags now.  Sounds funny now. Before I could put away the whole bag of Maui Onion Chips.

Mahalo guys for all your support.  I couldn't have done it without you.

My friend that had the rny has been confirmed that he died of cardiac arrest.  They did testing on him and said that the surgery had nothing to do with it.  I know that he is in a better place.  However this surgery would have changed his life forever.  Dr. Fowler is a great doctor and has saved many many lives.  I am proud to call him my doctor.

Its not about me at all its about a friend.

I went to school with the guy and I just found out that he passed away.  He had the RNY done on Wednessday and passed this morning.  I really don't know what to say.  Surgery is a scary thing and I would never in my dreams think anything would have went wrong.  My heart goes out to his family.  

Well Elena came to Hawaii and gave me a call.  She is a sweetheart.  We had so much fun.  Elena is loving the sushi down here.  She says that is all she eats.  I have to admit the sushi here is unbelieveable.  Here are some of the pictures we took that night.

Ok you know that shots cost $6.00 a piece.  I was making 4.
I go to my car and make my own.  This is the only way to do it.  Save Money!!!!

Man has the time flew by.  Many of you been asking for some new pics.  Sorry but I haven't changed much lately her is what I have.  I started my journey at 240 lbs as of today I am 132.2 lbs. I am not trying to lose anymore but because of all the stress I am going through the weight is coming off.  A year ago if some of these things happened I would have ate my sorrows away.  Now I exercise them away, clean house or read a book.  I don't turn to my best friend food anymore for comfort.  I do drink and smoke now.  I really need to quit the smoking I did it before I can do it again.  I love my new self and the things I can do now without sweating like a pig after 3 minutes.  Life is a good as it could be at the moment.  I am doing good, kids are doing good and dh is a pig!!! Yup I said it.  He fooled around about 5 months ago and only now I found out.  The gossip is all around town.  He said he only did it once but because he fooled around with a friends cousin everyone knows.  Again this happened 5 months ago I confronted the girl and she said it was a one night thing after a party.  I am not mad at her she didn't know he was married.  I am just so pissed.  This is the best I have ever looked in my life and he pulls this crap on me.  I told him I am selling the home and moving to Vegas to start all over.  He said he will follow me.  I don't know if I should forgive him or nut.  I am just confused!!!! Yah leaving would not be the easy way out.  I have 5 children and a mortgage right now.  The kids love their dad.  O well I will just have to think about it.  Trust is a hard thing to get back.
