almost 6 months

Mar 20, 2011

wow, i cant believe the changes in myself. I just feel great. my blood work is perfect. proteins dint seem to be a problem.. exercise is! just don't seem to ever find the time to actually start.. indoor pool is 15 miles away. so procrastinating.. I'm down below 200lb for the first tine in 20 years!!!! a size 16 and they are getting big fast... funny joke is I lost my butt and well poor little twins may need* fix a flat*  rofl...  but considering all.. clipping my toenails and tying my shoes!! not sending the kids *upstairs because I'm tired or hurt.. but RUNNING up the steps !! ALL BY MYSELF. my balance is a zillion times better...now Ii just need how to figure WHO to make pics smaller so  can load them!  my worst issue is I still like my wine.. and very conscience about addiction transfer.. so being careful and watching.. thank god for support and family to get me out and giving me other ways to *unwind*

yippy 5 months and feeling great!

Feb 24, 2011

I   am so happy I went through with this... I truly worried by now that I would be stressing over foods.....failing.. like many people thinking the worst... thank You God  for making this so wonderful
 Chris my BF will be following suit soon.. oh no a competition??? no way... I cant wait for him to join me.. his poor back and legs have had it....

 Myself.. it was a wonderful and *strange* feeling when the other day I was stopped by a lady I do not know... she said wow you look great..you've lost a lot of weight! did you have *the surgery*?  she  asked.. and I told her yup and we chatted for a moment.. funny I have no idea who she is, but obviously I make a presence where I go.  she made me feel so good... and was genuine in her happiness for me!.. look out world here I come!!!!

post DIABETES GOOD BYE

Dec 09, 2010

I am soo happy about all this! I went into the hospital off all diabetic meds.. insulin, metformin, and januvia. was truelly expecting
to be back on meds for at least a few weeks... well  the day I left the hospital. the diabetic clinic specialist told me NOPE.
no meds... now at 10 weeks.. my a1c was 5.1! the joslin diabetic clinic whom I trusted my life with told me  GO HOME.
 you have no need for us!    THIS is a total success for me... this was the reason I did this.. to SURVIVE life. and be here for me a long life and MY SONS!!! I love you guys.thanks for the support!
