Sorry for my absence!!!
Apr 15, 2010
I am so sorry for my absence everyone. I would like to first start this post off by giving GOD his honor and glory for if it had not been for him I would not have made it this far. I have not been on here for a while because I had a family tragedy that needed to be attended to. My parents home burned down, so please all just keep them in prayer. Well I am now a month out and 30lbs down bringing my total weight loss for this year to 78lbs, I am fastly approaching 100 and cant wait to get there. The crazy thing is I cant see the weight loss when I look in the mirror I still see the old me but apparently everyone else sees the loss and thinks it looks great. I just wish i too can see it. I did not expect the mental psychii that this surgery plays on your eyes and your mind.I have not cheated or eaten anything that I had no business eating or drinking and I am so proud of my commitment to this process. I think the best decision I have made is to make sure that GOD is a part of this journey. With GOD, my husband, my sister, my mothier-in-law, my children, my niece and my nephew I see myself being victorious and successful throughout the duration of this process. Life just looks so much better. I started at the gym yesterday and it felt great. Today I worked in the fitness center with a specialist for the first time and she truly made me work out for an hour and a half. I am so looking forward to attending my nieces graduation, prom celebration and track meets as a a newly confidence and self secure me.
I know my weight loss journey has just begun and the road will get a little rougher as I go, but I honestly feel I am more than ready for the challenge. I didnt risk my life and my families livelihood just to self sabotage myself. I plan to fully utilize this tool as my transportation mode to a new, improved, healthier and happier me. So watch out world here I come healthier, happier and ready to participate in all the activities and joys you have to offer with my family and friends. I no longer plan to live through them but with them and for them. " I am only as strong as the faith I keep and the prayer I speak" "Oh and I plan to remain prayed up and with you my OH family always be straight up, keep your head up and know that together we will make it through!!!!!!"
