a few hours away from my 6 month anniverasry

Sep 29, 2011

it will be 6 months tomorrow and i had my check up today unfortunately I may have an ulcer so thats not good at all. I have lost a total of 88 plus lbs. Dr, taylor sdaid i was doing good nut I am about 14 lbs behind but thats because I havent been to the gym in a while because I had surgery on Sept. 8th to repair my right shoulder rotator cuff and due to my injury and recovery I cant workout like I would usualy do. it is a little depressing but what can you do?

Hello it's me

May 23, 2011

7 weeks out and I'm down almost 45 lbs at first i was wondering if it was the right choice but now I have no regret.....well maybe 1 which is I should have done this sooner. i feel awsome and every day I find myself with more and more energy. Now the hard part of this is my cloths fit on Tuesday and by Thursday they dont lol but thats ok I don't mind that one bit. More ppl have noticed the weightloss just by lookikng in my face, and for some reason now I am so much more aware of what others and myself eat.  and I am finally realizing that being over weight is a  desease  that some of us really have no control over. So far so good for me I haven't had any body reactions from anything I eat since I tend to eat my healthy foods and I dont want to test the waters with the suger so i read all food labels. so i think I am were I need to be and on that note talk to you all later.

A little depressed

Apr 25, 2011

Been a couple of weeks with no post or updates just been feeling a little down.... for the last week or so I havent lost a pound and this has me feelin a little down I really hope its only because I'm bloated due to my monthly but I was in the mind set that i was losing so good the first two weekw after surgery because I lost almost 30 lbs. that  the weight would continue to come off so well. But I know it's a process and it wont happen over night. I have also had two run ins with food getting stuck in my throat which makes me scared to eat so I'm still learning.  I will be glad when the scale reads 299 I'm stuck at 305 and have been for a week or so is this normal

Less then a week away

Mar 23, 2011

i'm laying here and I'm thinking about how next week this time I will have had my surgery, and I will be laying in the hospital hopefully painfree  but on the road to recovery and a healthier me. I know this journey will be new, long, challangeing but hopefully not hard I pray  to God for the strenght, he has already given me courage because if he hadn't I wouldn't be this far. So I know he is leading the way. I have the support of 5 very close people in my life...because I haven't told every one kinda my gift to me for my 41st, birthday in September. it will be a little funny to hear some of the stories that will come about due to me losing weight all of a sudden though lol.....you know how when people dont know something they come up with their own stories so that will be something i will keep you posted on what i hear lol. well the count down has began so until tomorrow sweet dreams friends.
