30 is the New 20
Aug 13, 2007
I am finally down to 179.... and now wearing a size 10... It feels so good to say that and wear it.
I can truly say that this surgery has been nothing but a blessing in my life. I am in school for nursing... raising three beautiful children. Married to the world greatest husband for 10 years and counting.
I look forward to each day that I live.. and live it to the fullest. Everytime someone has a camera I am jumping in front of it. I will look forward to taking family pictures this Christmas without holding my stomach in and saying oh my goodness I look so huge.. Now I will say dang look at that chick (LOL)
This surgery has given me the courage to start singing again.. I am not sure where it will take me... But I will sit back and enjoy the ride.
Love peace and soul.....

The New Me
Mar 29, 2007
I never knew that I could feel so good about myself. I went from a size 20 to 18 and now I can wear a 16. I have not worn a size 16 since college. I have so much energy now and just full of life.
The only thing that gets on my nerves is I get tired of eating sometimes and frustrated. Some days you just don't want to eat, my stomach doesnot like chicken.
But I still would not trade this surgery in for nothing. I am comfortable with taking pictures and wearing clothes that looks good on me. I look damn good in Baby Phat.. they have a customer for life.
I started out at 263 on February 12, 2007 and as of today March 29, 2007 I am 223lbs
Thank you Jesus

I am almost a Looser (In a good way)
Feb 09, 2007
I have prayed for this day and it is almost here. I am on my way to the hospital to have my anestiologist appt. It was so hard for me to do the 1,000 calorie diet, I am not going to lie I could not do it. I did my best, I guess that bowl cleanser that I have to take on Sunday is really going to clean me out (LOL) I can't belive it is almost here time went by fast. The devil thought he had me by trying to make me worry. But God does not give us the spirit of fear. So I have cast all my cares onto God and him I put my trust. He has seen me through so much I know he is eeing me through this.
Lord I thank you for all your blessings that you have given to and the ones to come. Thank you for blessing me with a husband that adores me and thank you for giving us three beautiful children. If you know me then you know what it took for us to even have children.
The doctors may say one thing but God has the last word.
Ok everyone until next time.
Love,peace and SOUlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

12 more days to go
Jan 31, 2007
I am getting closer and closer to my date... yes I am nervous just making sure I am making the right decision. It feels weird to finally be doing something for myself. All my life I have always dedicated myself to doing for everyone else. But now I feel like I about to be in a cacoon and in a couple of months will be this beautiful butterfly.
I thank God for my friends whom have supported me through this decision it means alot to me to have support.
To my BAF words can not express the love that I have for you guys.. Akilah I trully thank God for putting you in my life you stepped in right on time. We have prayed for each other... just remember in order to have a Testimony there is a test that we must go throug.
I am trying to get closer to God not because of my surgery but because I really want to be where God wants me to be... there is a calling on my life and I dont want no rock to cry out for me.
until next time...
Love peace and hair grease

IT's My Turn
Jan 21, 2007
Can't believe it my husband is 6days post-op and I am next. February 19,2007. What better way to start the new year off with a bang. I am looking forward to seeing the new me in a couple of months. But if I get one more person that says to me you don't look like you need the surgery. I keep telling them its the boobs thats hiding everything. I just think they want me to show them my gut.
I can't wait to be able to run around with my children without feeling like I am going to pass out. To dance with my husband and not have my stomach be the first thing to touch him. One of the things I am really excited for is to have my daugter see me as a healthy and trim mom. I am just really excited that God is giving me this chance to have a healthy life. I probly will be blogging more since my surgery is coming up. I have to get some stuff off of my chest and stomach (LOL)
