I have not entered in a few weeks but as of today I am @ 304.8lbs so I have 85ls as of now. I feel great and have gotten a few new thing to wear. All my stuff from before is so big I have given away alot and have more to give. I am in a 3x down from a 5x or 6x. I still have a few of the shirts and pants but they are big. I wear them around the house. and sleep in the shirts. I never thought that I could have gotten the 85lbs off.
but I hope that will not be all. I think that I need to lose about 120 more lbs. and I hope I can do it. I have been struggling I lose about 10lbs and stay there for about a week and then I lose more.I hope I can do this. I try not to eat more than I should but I am not sure what I an suposed to be eating. So with that said I have more energy than ever before and I play with marky more and clean more than ever. Will write again soon.

Well as you can tell I havet written anything in a long time. I am 1 lbs down today I was 283lbs. It is going realy slow now. I try to walk everyday in my pool but I am not finding enough time in the day. I leave for work @ 645am and return @ 430pm and I have to clean my house and make dinner for my family when I get home so I get about 3 to 4 day a week. But it is better than nothing I guess. I have had to get some new cloths because nothing fits me but it is fun trying on new things and in smaller sizes then I have ever had in my life.Life is good.
I am in the club. I have lost 104lbs as of this morning. I feel great and I have more energy. I walk everyday in my pool and also do some floor stuff at the end of the day. Crunches and legs. But I have alot of skin that is hanging. Well I will deal with this as I can. My lbs are going slower now but I am eating differntly now. Trying to only eat good stuff and exersize but it is hard at times. Yesterday I had B-Portein 8 oz L-salad sm 1/2 cup and 2or 3 bites of mac salad D- 3or4 bites of pastawith meat and 2or3 bites of cottage cheese and pear.
My weight was 285lbs as of this morning.

I dont go to ball games for fear that I might not fit in the seat. I dont go to the movies for fear that I might not fit in the seats. I dont go to many restourants, and theam parks. I need help I have tryed to lose the massive toumb that is incaseing my body but I cant do it. I have tryed everything and nothing works (for very long). I want long term results. Well that is my sob tory and I hope this is the last time I will have to tell this story. I am going for my first appt. with my new Dr. on Dec. 2nd. This is my last attempt at this.

Iam a little frustrated at this point I have gained 1 lb. I did what everybody said I upped my protien and water. And I have gained a pound. Well I have not been able to work out as much as I used to. I have had a back problem. It hurts low in my back and my right hip. Wwnt to the doc he said that it was due to being over weight for so long. I told him than how come it didi not happen before. How come it is happening after the 137lb weight loss. I dont understand. But he said that it started before and is now catching up with me. Crock of crud. I think oh well. I am at 252lbs that is 137lb loss. Hope that scale dont go up any more.Walked at break and i work on the top floor of the office so I do the stairs all day also.

I know that should be the other way around. we went to the bar after and only stayed for a few min. then home for a game of dominos. then to bed. We got a early morning wake up call from the ambulance. Hank is a medic. and he did not have to go so we went back to sleep. slept untill ten and got up to the ex-husband being an ass. so we desided to go shopping. got home at 12 and I went home. well at 2am my little boy woke up with a tummy ach and we were up untill 5.

I am at 235lbs as of this morning. I have lost 154lbs. I feel good and look ok. I saw a pic of myself this weekend I did not know who I was. I had to ask my ex who is holding marky and he said that is you. I thought oh my goodness I did not even know who I was. this was a cool moment for me. He is seeing someone now but he still is bothering me. I hope he dose not make it hard for me to move.
Happy B-day baby boy. You are 4.
12-27-2005
WOOO HOOO happy birthday to my little boy he is 4 today. and his dad and I are talking and may even be friends after all. He is being very cool to me we spent all of x-mass eve together I even spent the night at his house.. we woke up and gave marky his santa presents at his dads house and then went over to his bannas and papas were we are living now. Well it was good. I also went to my best friends house for dinner we had steak and lobster. it was soo good I helped cook and loved every min of it. I just think that robby thinks that we are getting back together and we are not going to. He needs to work his stuff out and he dose not need to have any distractions.
thats it for now oh ya I got on the scale this morning and it said 230lb well thats what I get for having too many 7 n7 this week end.
This is my good friend Chantel i love her. She is wild.

Future Update
1/9/2006
well it is 2006 I had a good new years and it was a blast at the party. I have not been eating very good over the holidays but i am trying to get back on track. I am at 227lbs as of today and that means a loss of 162lbs since I started. well I was hoping to be at a 200lbs lost by my 1 year mark but i guess being over the 150lbs mark will be ok. I need to get another 50 off but I am in a size 16 now and I look ok I have alot of skin. and I feel great.
so that is all for now but will update more.
1/23/06
ok it has been a while. I am on the right track to get a place and move. We went and looked at a few places. they are great. but we cant afford them. Mostly all the houses are in the 1400.00 marks and that is way to much. hank got his job and he was very nouvers about starting today. I know he will be fine. he has no confidence in him self. I think that he is the best medic. he needs to know that he is going to be fine in what ever he chooses to do. Now we need to get a place and get him in school. he wants to be a nurse. And he will make a great one. We are going to leave my baby here for a little while untill we get in and I get a job. That is going to be very hard for me. I miss him when I am away for only just a couple of days. so I am 227lbs and still holding. I have not lost any or gained any but my cloths are looser I dont get it. I fit in a loose 16 pants and a xl shirt and i can get in some large too. that is all for now.
05/31/07
Well it has been a long time since i have updated. I am now back together with my X. And I am having a baby i am due on nov. 10th. I am very happy about it but I am very nervous also. I dont want to gain any weight and I have already gained about 20 lbs. That sucks. My brother is also having a baby his girlfriend is due on july 20th. my cousin just had a baby acouple of weeks ago so there are babys every were.
07/12/2008
Well it has been a very long time. i had a handsome baby boy on Oct. 26, 2007. he is great. Very good baby. Dose not sleep through the night but that is ok. he smiles all the time and laughs. he is trying to crawl but mostly just rolls. I have a new job. I am a dispatcher for the Inyo Co Sheriffs dept. I went to school for 3 weeks. Also I had 2 months of workign with someone else. Then they kicked me out onmy own. any way I have gained alot back about 59bls sucks I need to get it off. I can feel it. it sucks. I need to get healthy again.
