So I've been down to 200 lbs since the second week of june or so. And it feels great to be that close to "W'one'derland". I never thought that I would get here. I was at 205 a couple of weeks before and even that seemed impossible. Before May of 2008...i thought that being obese was the only way I would be. But now...I'm looking better in my clothes and am feeling better about doing things that require physical activity. It doesn't hurt that now I'm the one getting smaller while everyone else is getting slightly plumper while we are in school.

Now, although I am starting to see my self in a different light. I know this change is gradual, which I'm glad for. I need to stay on track and probably amp it up a bit. While I was away at school, there was a gym at my disposal. Now that I'm back its not the same. So getting my exercise in to keep up my progress and prevent the sagging skin ( which i think im starting to see :(  ) from coming my way.  Only good things my way!!!  Main goal: to lose 50+ pounds by October 17, 2009. Thats a year from my date of surgery and I would have surpassed losing 100 lbs!!!


Later!!!

So... I have not written in a while and we can thank school for that, however.. i got on the scale...the 1st time since my spring break was over and I weighed 205 with clothes and shoes. I am in complete disbelief. Like COMPLETE diselief...it still had not reall hit me yet. So close to 200 lbs..I mean idk when the last time i was 200 lbs. But it feels great..I feel like im steadily losing and my goal as of now is to be around by 160 at the earliest (LATE AUG/EARLY SEPT.) but if not I definitely want it to be my weight on the day I have been a year post-op OCT. 17TH!!!

See ya later...(hopefully with more good news)!!

I went to my Dr. on  Nov. 13th and I found out I was down 13lbs since my last visit which was about 2 weeks! I was thrilled...and I hope I continue to lose like this until I can reach 150. I went to my last scheduled nutrition class on the 14th. This week I am on soft or semi-solids, however you may classify this stage, and I am gradually adding more foods into my diet. So the week of Thanksgiving I will be on REGULAR food! BUT...I am very nervous because while I will be on regular food, I get my first fill on Nov. 25th and am very anxious about the restriction I will have.

So..lately my family has been telling me that I am losing a lot of weight but I dont see it. They say they really notice it in my face and some other places. I see some difference in my face but I dont think its as much as they say, lol. However, I looked at a old ID I had and when I took the new one could CLEARLY notice my face was not as chubby, lol.  Either way, my clothes ARE fitting a lot looser  .

I wonder if my friends will be able to see a big difference like my family can...compared to me looking at my self everyday and not being able to notice, lol.
