OK Happy New Year everyone!!!! I know everyone always has a New Years Resolution to lose weight but I have been there done that. I do want to lose the rest of 170lbs that my doc feels I should. (which is only 45more lbs to go.) But this year I am going to get my finacials in order. I have also renewed my membership to the YMCA for my whole fam and me and my bf have been going almost daily. We also have been taking the kids swimming on Sundays. We have both lost about 125 lbs and we feel great. I started in a size 28 and I am now in a 16. I don't think I have worn a 16 since jr high. All I know is Dr. white saved my life and my family and for that I owe him everything!!!

Ok I know it has been way too long since I have been on here but better late than never right? Well I finally hit the glorious 100lb mark about 2 weeks ago!!! I was so excited!! My bf also hit the 100lb mark this week and even though I have weight lose envy because he is 2 months behind me, I was still happy for him. Other than things have been good. We even get along a million times better!! Well I hope everyone else is doing good!!

I am down 95 lbs as of today and that should make me happy right? Well I am just sad I feel good physically but I am a mess emotionally. I want things to work like i have always planned they would but sad to say they are not. I only ever wanted to love someone unconditionally and have them love me back the same. I know that to me to love some in that way would be to sacrifice myself for them and I have done that. Why cant it be the same the other way around?? Maybe i am wanting something that only happens in dreams , maybe I am setting my stanards too high but i guess it is nice to dream! Well enough for tonight I have to work in the morning and i am already sick feeling as it is!

Hey everyone I know it has been awhile since i wrote but things have been very stressfull. Well my 4 months is up this week so guess what that means??? I get to try rice and pasta!!! I miss rice soooo very much!!! So I tried chicken fried rice yesterday. I went and got a pint which turned into 4 meals but tasted soooooooo goood!!! I have also been busy taking care of my bf. He has had kidney stones, and infection, the flu and more urinary track issues. He is always sick and depressed and it makes me sad that I cant help. We have been fighting alot and of course that makes me sad too. I am starting to think that us doing this together has been a bad idea! On the plus side he did lose 68lbs in 6 weeks and he is looking good. Well just figured I needed to update alittle!!!

Well I know I last blogged about a not so good experience and then I kinda dropped off the face of the earth. I have been working alot tryong to make up for my boyfriends missing income since he hasnt been working cause of his surgery. But he has finally been released back to work and went to the urologist this morning. They can not  break up the kidney stones until he loses about 40 more lbs. But he is not having any pain either so he is going to get another CAT Scan tomorrow and we will be back there in 2 weeks. As for his surgery he has been doing alot better. He has lost 46lbs since we started the process in Feb and 25 since his surgery 2 weeks ago. We have been walking together and we tried riding bikes but because he is sooo much heavier than me and not used to riding he would ride 1/2 mile and I would have to ride home and get the car to get. It is kinda hard for me cause I can ride like 4 miles and be just fine but I am trying to be patient and not complain. I figure he will get there soon enough. As for me I have lost 73lbs since feb when I started and 58 since my surgery 11 weeks ago. So things are getting better and I am hoping they keep climbing for the good.

Ok well my boyfriend had his surgery on Monday July 26. We had to be at the hospital by 6 am and his surgery was at 7:30am. We waited in the waiting room till Dr. White came in to tell us that everything went good but he did have alot of muscle in his stomach area and they did have a hard time getting through it. That was at 11:30 am. He also said that he would be in recovery for about 2 hrs and then to his room. At about 2:30 I hadnt heard anything yet so I went to the desked and asked , where the lady had told me that they were having a hard time finding a room for him. Now this surgery was scheduled several months ago and I was kinda confused on why they didnt have a room. So I asked if we could see him and she was really snotty and told me that my kids were not allowed in recovery and that I was not allowed to leave them in the waiting room. Mind you my kids are 11 and 8. So as I stood there getting more and more mad the phone rang and as luck would have it , it was his nurse. He just happened to be asking for us at the same time. His nurse told the lady that we could all come back but only for a few minutes. When we got back there he was kinda in bad shape. I know with my surgery they had told me that the intabation tube and everything would be removed before I woke up and it was well not in his case. He must have woke up early and when he still had tubes down his throat and everything. So after seeing him we went back to the waiting room where we sat till 6:30 that night when they finally got him a room. So me and the kids went home at like 8pm. The next morning my daughter had a doctors appointment at 9am so I didnt make it to the hospital till 10:30, but my boyfriend had called me and said that Dr. White had been in and they were sending him home!! YAY!!! Well I sat there till 7PM and then asked the nurse what was going on and she looked confused. When I asked her about going home she said the doctor hadn't left any discharge in structions!!! WTH!!!! So I stayed till 8 and then went home. The next morning my boyfrind calls me at 7:30 and tells me they are discharging him so hurry and get there. I made it there by 8:10 and though we live 30 minutes away! lol I got there and after an hr of waiting the nurse tells us that the doc forgot to write his perscription for pain meds and we have to wait till he is out of surgery which would be another 2 to 3 hrs! I was so mad by this and couldn't wait to get out of here. So finally Dr. White comes up and says he is sorry and we get to leave YAY!!! So we are driving home and since we live in Oregon Ohio I went the pharmacy I work at to turn in his pain meds to get filled. So I get his discharge folder out and no perscription. So I am sitting in Wal-Mart's parking lot and I call the hospital and I talked to his nurse and she tells me she forgot to give it to us!!!! Really??? I was not driving back so she told us she could fax it over to the pharmacy. GOOD! If that all wasn't bad enough he spent Thursday and Friday in alot of pain and was really sick to his stomach. He couldn't barely move and I wash showering him and dressing him and trying to go work all at the same time. I was sooo tired and he wouldn't do anything to help himself. Thursday I told him that either had to call Cathy or go to the hospital or stop being a baby! I didnt have any of this happen to me so I was sooo clueless and I just figured that if he was in that much pain he needed to do something about it. Finally by Friday night I was at work till 9:30 but my stepson had called me and told me that he had gotten even worse and he was now starting to get sick and he was crying alot. I left work and rushed home and made him get dressed and I was on my way back to Toledo Hospital. I took him to the Er and after about 1 hr of waiting they got us back. They did a CAT scan and some blood work and found out he had some stones of some sort in his ureters. So by 1:30 am they had him a room and he was being admitted. I took the kids home and got some sleep and came back at around noon. The doc had already been there and told him that he has 2 kidney stones and one is still in the kidney and is way too large to pass and they are going to have to break it down. So I am really not sure when he is going to be able to get out of here. He is meeting with the Urologist in the morning to discuss his options. My surgery and hospital stay alll went really smoothly and I had no issues at all but this time was a total 360.

I know its been awhile but I have been kinda irritated with the way some people treat people who have had my surgery! My boyfriend is having his Rouen Y surgery tomorrow morning so this last week has been his chance to get eating out of his system. Now my surgery was 9 weeks ago so I am still limited on what I can eat and how much. So my boyfriend wanted to go to the Golden Corral, for those of you who don't know that is an all you can eat buffet. When we got there I asked if we could get a discount since I will not eat much and they at first said NO why come here if you are not going to eat! Well Damn! So I paid the 10 dollars to eat a tiny salad and small piece of steak. So then today my boyfriend wanted Penn Station. OK maybe that would be cool. We get there we order and then they don't have anything I can drink. So we eat and then I ask the guy for a cup of water and he gives me a dixie cup!! Really we were on our way out can't I get a bigger cup with a lid?? So by then I was upset at how these restaurants can be rude with out really even knowing it and I was in tears. My boyfriend went in and agued with him on the cup to get me a cup with a lid. and then we left!! I guess people just don't use their brains sometimes. Well I am sooo excited about him having his surgery in the morning, things are going to get sooo much simpler for me. I have lost 61 lbs in 8 weeks and tomorrow will be 9 weeks and time to weigh myself agian. I bought a new pair of pant and shirt for work yesterday. I started in a size 28 pants and a 3x shirt I am now a size 22 pants and an xlarge shirt yay!!!

OMG!!! Last night I was seriously craving something sweet. I went through 40 pages of forum recipes looking for something that I had all the ingredients too and easy that I could eat!!! Well I finally found a flourless peanut butter cookie reciepe and yum it was soooooooo good!!! I had 2 little cookies and i was completely satisfied!!!!

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

1 cup of reduced fat peanut butter
1 cup of splenda
1 egg
1 tablespoon of vanilla

Mix and spoon on to greased cookie sheet bake at 350 for abot 6 to 8 min. that it!!!

I went for my 6th week checkup and i lost 39 lbs since my surgery and 54 since I went to the semiar in Feb. I was soooooo excited!!! I am wearing a size 22 now when I started in a 28!!! I still think this was the best thing I ever did!!!!

Well I have been kinda frustrated in the last 2 weeks. The weight lose has stopped and I have hit the dreaded Pleatu. From last week to this week I only lost a half of a pound!!! It scares me even though everyone keeps telling me it is normal. I still feel like this whole experience is a dream. I know I am lighter and god knows I can tell in my clothes but damn I am impatient lol. Well I just needed to vent.
