Cant get the last 30 moving! I have good and bad days! On those bad days I sit in front of the computer and just scroll though pics to  see the actual difference-- then I am happy at how far I have come-- but still struggle with getting the scale moving again!

I did get to see Ann and Janelle recently-- so talking to both of my sleeve sisters was helpful-- just to discuss how we cope and how we do our normals days--- and that always give us all I think a push to get where we are going or to getting back on track! 

I Love all the changes I have made and the people in my life-- so now off to finish what I started!! :)

A bit scared....the scale has been moving very slowly for the last couple of months....I think its time to jump back on protein shakes for a week and nothing else and see if that helps!  I feel great and look good but still 35lbs from my original goal :(  and I want to get at least 10lbs from my original goal-- which will put me at my high school weight..... I need some motivation!!  the compliments and everyone noticing is great-- but I need a swift kick in the ass to get the ball rolling again!  HELP!

The scale moved slighly-- somewhere in the last 3 weeks my brain said I was hungry-- and I started snacking more! Damn you brain!  I know I am not HUNGRY all those times! so heres to getting back on track!

Had the best time! Met and hung out with the best people!  Always nice to meet people that have been there--done that! Will have my new friends for a long time!

Went sky diving with 3 fabulous ladies-- although I think I was the only one that had NO regrets and would do it again tomorrow! !  I loved every minute-- and I got the hottest looking guy in the group to jump tandem with-- SWEET!

I just posted pics!  I hope more of Dr. Alverez's patients can make it next year!




 

I have have different sizes of pants in my closet so I have not had to by much in the way of pants or shorts for work (i run a bar so khaki or black) but my tops I have to order and get embroidered until I can fit into the little girl shirts that I buy for my girlie staff-- I was told this weekend that I need to buy me some new shirts by a few of my staff!  I guess when my bra strap keeps showing that would be a good sign to order some!  I guess it looks like I'm swimming in them-- another good sign!

People are really starting to take notice-- so that is a great thing!  I told my friend I lost some of my boobs and he said that would be like losing water out of the ocean! LOL! So true! I just hope they dont become tube socks when I am finished losing!

Fuck off~ (to people who say that!)  One of my staff told me not to get all bony on her that I need to keep my cushion. 

Another  guy that works for me-- hasn't commented on how good I look but just came up and told me I that I had to stop losing weight-- then said he could totally see it in my face-- I told him I promised not to lose anymore weight in my face and that I would stop when I got to a healthy weight!! ( he likes girls with cushion too!) he asked how much more I was planning on losing-- I said what ever it takes to get to that healthy weight!

I am only down 36lbs-- can't wait for more annoying comments when I hit 60-80-100!  I just had to rant!

Oh how I used to like chicken!  Tried some chicken that was like pulled pork in BBQ-- only about 2 oz man was I sorry-- just sat there giving me pain-- I went to the bathroom to get it up and out! Think I will wait a while before I try that again!  Real thin sliced honey ham is working great as far as my solids--so far-- I'm scared to try a lot of things!

ok-- I know I can't lose 7lbs a weeks till I'm at goal--so with that said I am just dissappointed I have slowed.  258 at surgery and in 2 weeks I was at 242, now as of today the 3 week mark 239-- but I was getting on the scale and nothing changed till today--SO THATS IT! I'm am back to once a week scale--stupid thing I hate the person who invented it! LOL! other than that --doing good-- had a long work week and got really dehydrated one day but back to pushing the water! Have a weird center of my back pain-- but no fever or anything else-so I am not too worried about that but am having some reflux so just started taking Prilosec OTC-we will see how that goes!
Had my first poached egg today -- felt like heaven going down! Thanks god something different to eat!!! MUSHIES HERE I COME!

Wow the day of and after surgery were rough-- but everyday gets better!  I have what I consider mild pain in the bottom of my tummy-- I think I still might be sipping too big...but other than that all is going really well.  I finally got all the sticky glue residue off my body-- that was a task!  And both the tops of my hands are black and blue from the IV being in each one (my veins didn't want to cooperate) -that hurts as much or more than the tummy:) 

Very happy with my decision!  Cant wait till full liquids--only 3 more days!

I can't believe the time has finally come! I just have to get through a 15 work day today and then fly out in the morning for surgery on Tuesday!
