It's been a while. Update and working out :D

Hi Everyone,

I haven't posted here in a VERY long time. I do read but just
haven't posted. I had surgery May 12th of 2008 and so far have lost
151 lbs. that's one pound below goal. WOOHOO.

I met with Kaiser Plastic Surgeon today. Very informative (if you
didn't know Kaiser had a plastic surgeon the website is
http://www.kpcosmeticservices.com/ It's not covered under Insurance
but the Sacramento office has free consultation Jan-Mar so I thought
it was a good start)

Also I spent all day in the ER yesterday I got HORRIBLE pains in my
stomach and was doubled over got ahold of SSF and they told me to go
to ER. Well, I have a small obstruction under my left rib,
Constipation AND they found Cysts in my left ovaries. But Today I am
feeling better. PHEW...

Now I don't know if anyone is interested BUT I am looking into
getting certified to become a Trainer. I want to focus on PRE op and
Post op patients. I work out about 5 days a week at California
Family fitness in Folsom. If anyone is in need of a work out buddy.
Not sure where to start your work out or just wants someone to go
with them. PLEASE feel free to contact me I'd love to work out with
you. Show you where I started and what I have done to make a work
out part of my life.  I know when I first started going a year ago I HATED IT and felt as though Everyone was STARING AT ME.  I wish I had someone That could relate.  So if you need someone to relate with I'm there for ya!

ANYWAY I hope you are all doing well.

Take care,

Your story is very inspirational!! Congrats on the continued success. I just started working out every morning in January. I am not a mornng person, but I drag my butt out of bed at 4:30 am Monday thru Friday. It is beginning to get easier. I wish we lived closer because having a work out buddy always makes things easier. Maybe we should start a work out thread every week like we do the weight loss wednesdays. Well good luck. I hope one day I can say that i have lost as much as you have!!
