Well this month on the 20th it will be a year since surgury. Yea me! I am happy and no regrets. the best thing I ve ever done. As of today i am down 156 lbs but am bouncing back and forth right now give or take 2 or 3lbs. Oh well we all go through it right. I am going to start my liquid diet again to get myself jump started again to lose the 40 lbs i want off to be at my goal wieght.
This has been the funest experiance for because i am proud to say I can walk into a normal girl store and buy something and it fits. kind of like when I was in Vegas this past weekend I went for my birthday. So for my birthday presnt I bought myself a playboy bunny t-shirt(family joke) the girl working at the store saw me carrying the shirt and asked me if I would like to try it with the look of u probably should cuz its not got to fit you on her face. I declined the offer of trying the shirt on becasue I new it would fit. And damn it did! Proud sponser of the bunnies. But it makes me happy with my self and proud of myself for doing this and doing it right.

I go see dr l at the end of this month for my check up and we will see what he has to say. Hopefully no complaints. I am going to hit the gym hard these next couple of weeks and push myself and push myself to lose the 40 lb.

Hi everyone well as of today its been 6 monts and 1 day since surgury. i am down 122 lbs all together. I am doing well i have no complaints except my closet is EMPTY. I used to have lots of clothes and now i have very little. But its not all bad because now new clothes are smaller and somewhat cheaper.
Othere than that things are going very well for me no major problems and feel great.

Well its been 5 months and a few days and Happy to report I am doing great! Im down a total of 109 lbs. I am much more active and feeling great.  I so regret not doing this years ago. I still don't eat much but have noticed its several times a day and most days lately I could eat all day long. Small portions of things and thats about it.

Tomarrow is my four month anniversary and I am down 103 lbs! I am very Very happy with the results. I have done everything I am suposed to and its paid off.  To celebrate I bought new clothes! I took some of my clothes to resale shop and traded them in for reyclcled clothes that fit for now!  I was so excited because I got to buy a pair of 22/24 jeans that I didn't think were going to fit but they did and now I own them!  I am so happy!  I need to send a big thank you out to all my friends and family whom have been very suportive and helpful through these last 4 months!

 

Well I am 3 1/2 months out and am doing quite well. I have lost 93lbs since and very proud of myself. Yea me! I have had no complications with eating and no physical complications until mid last week. I was on my to Fort Wayne with a group form work for an annual meeting we have to attend. I hadn't been feeling the greatest for about a week but really thought nothing of it though. I might have just over done it at work or the gym. Not the case on the way to fort way I got nausiated in the car. I never get queasy in cars I love car rides and driving ecspecially for trips. As the morning went on I still felt bad at lunch I decied Id call and make me a dr apointment well they were out to lunch too. I had my mom call a little later and make me an apointment and got in to see him the next morning. Dr Lalor asked me some questions and pushed on the my belly an then said I think its your gallblater. We get and ultra sound and see whats going on. Well of course my luck its full of little stones and he wants to remove it. So thats what happened yesterday. Dr Lalor got to take out my gallblater. Things went well and I was home by 6pm.  I made such a great decision when I switched Dr's in September.  The Staff down here at the Center for weight Loss is great.

 I fianally got the statements from the insurance company and am very excited to announce that it was all taken care of and without a question. I couldn't be happier. 

Being back to work has helped me a great deal in staying motivatd. I go back to my second on Monday. Yeah more money for the holidays.

well so far so good returning to work. The first 3 days were rough for me because all my pains and aches came back. my feet were the worst. Of course I am on them all day long. However I am alive.
I moved back ot my appartment since I am paying rent and am doing well on my own with out any to say hey did you take your vitamins.

turkey day is coming and that will be hard for me but I am going to try to eat some of the dark meat and see how that goes for me. I have done ok with canned chicken so we will see what turkey does.

Yesterday  had my post opt appointment. Everything is well. Dr was very satisfied with where I am to this point and will see him again in 2 months. I am down 37 lbs some of which 19 were pre opt. and the rest is all post opt.
I was released to go back to work which I will be doing on Thursday of this week. I am excited but at the same tiem I think I'm getting the flu. I am very tired and no motivation. So going to work will be fun.

Been to the gym quite a bit and increasing my work outs to be a little long each time i go. However time to meet with one of the trainers at the gym cuz I need to know what to do witht he flabby arms I am getting.
 

Haven't blogged in few days. I stared taking my vitamins on monday of this week it was day 14. i also started eating pureed foods and different types of food. I have had egg salad, unsweetend apples sauce mashed potaoes and lemon pepper crock pot chicken all of wich are listed on the menue selections that the nutrionist gave me. I have done good with getting the vitamins down not doing so well with the chicken. Lets say monday night i was ready to eat and excited becasue it wasn't soup. Needless to say I though I was going to die after the first few bites. I stoped eating got up from the table walked around the house and finally after hour the pain and bloated feeling went away. I finally ate the rest of my dinner at 9:30  to see if the pain would coem back and it didn't. 

I tryed it again yesterday and the same thing just not as bad.
I ate it again today but a much smaller protion and did ok still got the bloated feeling but it only took 1/2 to go away thank god. don't know what is going on there but I haven't had any other problems with getting food down other not wantig to eat.

Today was a bad day because all the foot pain and Knee pain I had proceeded to return.  However I will take it compaired to the back pain I used to have.

Sad as it may be now I am going to have to go to the dr for some help with the pain in my feet so I will be able to tollerate a physical activites while I am at the gym. Cuz my feet hurt!!!! Maybe i have been to active I don't know.

Eating has still been a challenge for me and I don't look forward to dong it. Im bored with my choices and can't wait for the next menu change.
