Anyhoo i bet you dieing to know how much ive lost well drumroll please ..........90 pds and counting right now im at 193 in 10/12 and med tops, i come from 291, 20/22 and 2x tops so yeah ive come a long way,. people dont even reconize me even my own family say i dont look the same but i think its good thing.  I'm doing really good now i'm very happy.

I told him that his behavior in a way is an insult to me because it makes me wonder was i worth it when i was bigger??? any way i will halla at yall later i have to go eat dinner

Its been a long time ....

Mar 08, 2009

Hey guys its been so long since ive posted.... I have been out of work and i dont pay as much attention to the computer as i used to. Well right now im fluctuating (sp?) between 224 and 227 its coming off slow but look how far i have come in just 4 months so the way i see it i have about 8 months to loose the additional 60 that im trying to loose. Now i will say this, dieting at home is harder then dieting while working. Without the scheduled lunches and breaks its hard for me to get my water down and keep track of the amount of protein im getting in but im trying, it seems like everyday i fall off the wagon and everyday i get back on. Its still a struggle but when i look about at the 60 pds that ive knocked i dont regret a single moment, this surgery really has changed my life and the journey is not over. My sister just had surgery about a week and half ago and is recovering nicely, she has a lot to learn just like we all have but she will get there. until next time peace !!

Seen Dr Jay Thursday ....

Dec 22, 2008

We talked about why i was at a plato. I told him i was drinking 50-80 grams of protein per day and he help me figure out that in that one drink i was getting in about 330 calories and i usually drink it in the morning so i would take in all those calories before my day would officially start. Long story short. he said to put the drink down, get my protein out of food and eat in this order, protein, veggies, starches and usually i would start on my mash potatoes first because they go down easy and their good. He helped me understand that i would get to full off of the starches and by the time i got to the meat and veggies i was done eating. then i talked with the dietician and he gave me a meal plan. Since thursday i have dropped about 4 pds.

Just wanted to give an update...

Plato

Dec 15, 2008

Ok i have been at a plato for the past 3 weeks and its really nerve wrecking. Everyone keeps telling me to be patient the weight will fall off but since the begining when it came off so quick my head is really in a daze. I expected to still be loosing i didnt expect to be at a plato so soon. So i've been working on getting all of 56-70 grams of protein per day and about 60-70 onces of water per day. I have picked up a bad habbit of eating bread since i know my body can tolerate it but i'm going to leave it alone until i'm at least half way at my goal. I have been good about not eating sweets and i have not had any soda.  I go to the dr on thursday to see my surgeron and i was hoping to be a lil smaller then when he saw me last but it doesnt look like that will be happing. Its all good. I'm just 7 weeks out. Well thats all i have for now until the next time i remember to blog. See ya.

Ok, I have been going through this process for almost a year come December. Besides waiting for my baby to get here its been the most tidias (sp?) Any hoo I'm proud to say that I have done everything required of me from the insurance company i got my approval back in Aug. I will be picking up my cpap machine on monday to use for 10 days before surgery which the date has not been set yet but we are looking at the last week in Oct simply because if i get started on the cpapa monday 10 from then will be the 23rd. I can wait and I thank every on OH for soothing my nerves during this journey.  Its no over yet and this pass year has tought me patience so i know i will do well when its time for the weight to fall off.

I thanks GOD everyday for all of my MANY MANY BLESSINGS and prey that its sweeter on the on the other side.
