1 year!

May 28, 2010

Holy crap. Tomorrow is 1 year post op!

I uploaded some new pics. Yeah, I weigh 130lbs in those pics. As of today I weigh 127 because I don't tend to eat much of anything in late spring to early fall because well, it's too hot and humid in Pittsburgh to eat.

Anyways, here's to 1 year post op!!

Crashed...

Nov 01, 2009

onto another plateau that is. This sucks. It's almost as if every 10 lbs I lose now, I hit a plateau. I'm just starting to get angry. I get so stoked to see the numbers on the scale but when I see the numbers stay the same, it just kinda bums me out.

Well, here's to hoping the scale moves soon.

I did it!

Oct 26, 2009

I have reached my surgeon's goal. I am so stoked! I am down to 150lbs! Actually when I weighed myself this morning it was 149.8 but hey, I passed 150 lbs!

Woo hoo go me! I have less than 30lbs to go my goal. I am definitely going to have to seek out some plastic surgery. I have a whole bunch of gross and nasty skin just chilling on my stomach and my arms and thighs. I would also love to get a breast lift but hey, I'm not gonna get greedy.

Well I'm supposed to be paying attention in class and I'm kinda not so, I gotsta go.

Bye for now.

Less than 40 to go

Oct 18, 2009

I have less than 40lbs to go to my goal weight. I am so stoked!

In about 5 months I have gone from a jean size of 24 down to 11/12. My shirts have gone from 2xl to medium.

My son's birthday party is coming up but I'm sure I won't have any problem as long as I keep focused. Yea there have been some b-day parties since my surgery but none with this many people. Some of the people coming haven't seen me since my surgery, I wonder if they remember what I looked like before surgery.

Well Steelers are playing now. So I gotta show my love for the black and gold.

GO STEELERS!!!

BLAM!!!

Sep 05, 2009

Ouch, that hurt. Yea, I hit another plateau. I can't seem to get away from 169lbs. I've now lost 60lbs since my surgery day. Yea, woo hoo...   I want to get down to 120lbs. I really do but I can't seem to budge off this crappy plateau. My surgeon wants me down to 150 but at my height, 150 is still considered obese for me. I'm only 4'11 so I gotta work with what I got.

So let's see....
19lbs to surgeon goal
49 lbs to my goal

I can do this. I can so totally do this!
Wish me luck!

Leapt

Aug 23, 2009

So apparently, I finally leapt off my plateau. I dunno why I plateau after only losing about 50lbs. I have about another 60 to go. I am so stoked. I'm almost halfway there.

Not too much to say today. Bout to go driving with my dad so I can hopefully get my license by the end of September. I desperately need my license ASAP!

Got to go. Bye for now.

Upset

Aug 13, 2009

I haven't been able to lose weight for quite a while now. I've lost 2 lbs in the past almost week. This sucks. I've only lost 48 lbs. I need to lose another 30 to make it to my surgeon's goal of 150 for me and after that 30 another 30 to get to my goal of 120 for myself. I think I'm gonna do the 5 day pouch test/diet to see if that will help me at all. Just bummed I guess is all I can say at this point.

Jack has physical therapy today at 11 and after that, he is gonna take a nap and I am getting in my normal pilates exercise. Hopefully with more pilates and walking, plus the 5 day pouch test, everything will be ok.

Also, being lactose intolerant sucks. Lactose free milk sucks. Everything sucks right now.

Added goals

Aug 01, 2009

Of course, me being me, I have high...very high expectations for myself. As if being a single mom and a full time accounting student isn't hard enough. I added like a million goals to my goal list. So far I have achieved one. I plan on achieving the rest of them very soon.

I am so determined to lose this weight and leave the fat Christina behind. I don't want to know her anymore. She was a lazy fat slob. I wanna meet the new Christina. The one who has energy to do everything, well not EVERYTHING, but you know lol.

I added things like:
"Get to my doc's goal for myself"
"Get to 120 lbs"
"Be able to wear sexy bras and panties"
"Be able to wear sexy clothes and feel sexy"

You know, the normal woman stuff. I hope I can achieve them all. Well, here's to new goals

8 week post op

Jul 23, 2009

I went in for my 8 week post op today(7/23/09). I weighed in at 192.0lbs. woo hoo

I was told by my surgeon and his assistance, that they like to see their patients lose about 25% excess body weight by their 8 week post-op appt. Well, at my 2 week post-op, I had already lost 20%, now I am up to 35% excess body weight loss.

I'm gonna step up my exercises so that I get tons more muscle tone. I was told from my aunt, that Oprah was doing an interview with Star Jones and that she was able to tone her body really well with Pilates. I may just be starting to add Pilates along with my regular daily workouts. C'mon muscle tone!

New me --->

Work it!

Today

Jun 26, 2009

I weighed myself today. I am down to 199. I started out at 229.8 and am now down to 199.2. I am so stoked.

Yea, there are some things I miss. Like being able to chug water. I am a water chugger, well used to be but I really wanna start to chug water again. I miss being able to do so. I miss wanting milk. I haven't really want it since I wasn't allowed it.

That's really all I have to post today. Bye
