What ate some good glute lifting workouts???

Where do you think you're going? Nobody's leaving. Nobody's walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas. No, no. We're all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. We're gonna press on, and we're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny fucking Kaye. And when Santa squeezes his fat white ass down that chimney tonight, he's gonna find the jolliest bunch of assholes this side of the nuthouse. This is my all tume favorite Christmas movie. National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, along with A Christmas Story. But this is my favorite line off the movie. Reminds me of my family growing up lol...

Wow is all I can say, I am a size 12??? I don't ever remember a time in my life being able to fit a size 12... The energy I have now is incredible feeling the need to move and exercise, not really craving junk like I used to. I'm just giddy I weigh 186lbs now, I haven't seen the scale that low in years. I am truly loving myself, enjoying life, and feeling up beat... :-)

When I started going it was dreadful, but now not so bad. I found myself not winded after 5 minutes and I am having to push harder to get my heart pumping or to even break a sweat... Just feeling good, happy, close to the goal my surgeon has set for me hoping to go beyond 175lbs, to maybe 150lbs. Right now I am 3 and a half months out am at 186lbs, lets just get through the holidays......

So I was feeling so good for awhile, now I am out of my carafate... Ulcers are acting up again just a nagging pain. Nasea and throwing up again. Really not throwing up and more lol it reminds me of a cat coughing up a hair ball really. Have my 3 month follow up on Wednesday. I have lost 55 pounds in this time I am thrilled about that. Now if my insides felt better...

Recently, I was having severe abdominal pains, I mean the night I decided to take myself to the ER it had me on my knees. The day before I had called in complaining about it and the nurse told me maybe food was stuck and to drink 4oz's of coke that didn't do a thing for me. Called in again in the morning and told well as long as you not running a temp or throwing up it can wait. Well later that night getting ready for bed I lay down and the pain turned horrendous! Off to the ER! Nothing to do with The surgery it self but a compaction of any surgery. Colitis!?! 3 days in the hospital hooked up to an IV unable to really do any thing because the pain meds made me sleep, I actually gained 7 lbs just from IV fluid, because I could have absolutely nothing to eat or drink unbelievable I have to start all over it took a week to get rid of that to where I started at to begin with what a downer. Good news is I am feeling more like myself with out the stomach pains and am able to do my days to days once again. I have lost 34 pounds back at the gym my wonderful sister in law got me into spinning. Spinning is now my favorite thing ever! It's work but when you are done you feel so good. Great stress relief and takes your aggressions out, I feel like taking on the world when I'm done....

Surgery went well, recovery is going great so far. 2 weeks today I started out 250 lbs, now I am down to 227. This is by my home scale, every single scale I step on always has something different to tell me. I'll see this afternoon at my 2 week appointment. Everything the nutritionist told me had disappeared and have a lot of confusion again with servings.... When I eat I am looking for that full feeling some people are telling me you won't have that sensation any more, I have been doing my water, taking the time with my meals 20/30 mins. I don't know I will have to talk with the surgeon about it...

 I am happy to say I am on cloud 9! I got my highly anticipated phone call this morning giving me the thumbs up from insurance. Surgery date Aug. 13th! I am ready to take this giant leap for the better.

I have finished what I needed to 6 months nutritionist, psych evaluation, sleep study, met with the surgeon and got his approval for gastric bypass. Now I am sitting and waiting tomorrow all of my information will be submitted to insurance, I should hear something with in a week or two if the approve me or deni me. Everyone is telling me to think positive and I really am trying but there is that little shadow that is glooming in my mind. After all of this that I have done it would be a huge blow to me if they deni me. But really it was a lot better for me to have an appointment to look forward to it made the time fly. Till then my fingers are crossed, I am more then ready for this. I am more then ready to get a tool that will work for me, I am ready to say goodbye to the diet pills that made me feel so ill, to only deceive me once I thought I didn't need them anymore only to add more to me when I would stop taking them. The a healthy relationship with my husband, to know whats it is like to be picked up in his arms. To being able to run with the kids with out gasping for air just to be able to set a good example for them with better eating habits. I just want to be here for them and for myself.

Tomorrow is my FINAL nutrition appointment!!!!!! Can not wait to get it done.... Then I can meet with the surgeon and submit it all to insurance. Wish me luck with that one I am feeling I may need it....
