There is so much going on in my life. But I guess that is what life is all about. I am so busy with the kids, and working. I have gained yes I said "gained" 10lbs. I am so scared, I do not want to gain any weight. So now I need to go on a diet...what the hell is that all about!  I thought I would have this surgery and then I would never have to diet again.....I have to watch every thing I eat!....Like I stated before I can eat everything and anything with no problems. I am thinking of going back to my surgeon and seeing what she has to say!  I am not sure if anyone reads my blog. but if you do...Please know that even though I have gained some weight back and I never made it to my goal weight. I still would have the surgery without it....who knows if I would still be here to complain (LOL)...Good Luck to you.

Update December 09

Dec 23, 2009

I can not believe that I am 2yrs and 3 mos. out of surgery. It seems like just yesterday!  I can eat anything and everything I want. I really have to watch it or I know I can gain back everything I lost. I am still not at the weight I want to be at. That is very frustrating since it is my fault. I am still glad that I had my surgery, and that things are going as well for me as they are. I am working again. this time for a Construction Company and they hired me on. (Yea me). The people there are really nice. I go in do my job and go home. It is almost Christmas and I have so much to do. But don't we all at this time of year. I hope everyone is doing well and are happy. I will still try to keep this blog up every 4 - 6  months. Merry Christmas!

July 09 Update

Jul 30, 2009

Wow it has been so long since I have been on here. I have been very busy I have two daughters and now I am adopting 2 boys, They are brothers. We love them so much. I lost my job from last year only had it about 3 mos. then they went out of business I have had a temp job this summer and now I am on a temp to perm job. It is with a construction company. Not sure about it only been on it for a week. I have lost 7 more pounds only because I am so busy. I can still eat anything and I have no problems. The only thing that has been happening is that I am getting dizzy several times a day. Not sure what is going on. I know I need to go to the Dr. however I feel I can not take time off work. I am scared that it may be something bad. I have issues with my right foot. It hurts to walk sometimes. So not sure what all this is about. But that is my life this past year. Just like I said been very very busy....
Hope all is well with everyone. Have another great Year. I might be able to get back on within the year

Sept. 2008 update

Sep 21, 2008

Well another few months have gone by. I am the same weight. I hate the fact that I really have to watch everything I eat. I have so much going on in my life right now. I have 2 new additions to the family. I have 2 new boys. One is 13 and the other is 8. the 8 year old is only 2 months older than my baby girl. The boys are my husbands cousins children who have been in foster care for many years. My husband and I were asked if we could take them and we said yes. We are hoping that we can just adopt them and make therm permenent parts of our family. They are good kids with a rough past. So again I am very busy at home. Work is very busy to not sure how long we will be in business becase of the bill that was passed getting rid of DPA's .  So if you read this in the month of Set. 08 Please call your local senantor and let them know that you would like to keep the DPA's in tact. Thank you for your support. I hope things settle down here soon. I feel like I am going crazy......OH yea! I am now 1 year out. I am so glad I had this Surgery done I know I could never have lost this weight on my own.......Hope every one is doing well..... Write again in another few months.

Aug 08 Update

Aug 07, 2008

Well My BMI is now 31.6 so I am loosing just not fast.  I have started a new job. It is ok, I have to drive an hour and the hours suck 10 - 6:30. I am now working for A DPA (Down Payment Assistance). The other job I was going to start the owner called me the day before I was to start to tellme that a girl in the office wanted my job so he gave it to her and did not need me. I was very sad and angry at him, but what do you do. So this other job is 3 days a week except the end of the month every day. I can eat very well. I have to remind myself that I should not eat as much as I do or the things I do. I do not vomit or have any problems so I can eat anything I want. My cousin Mandy had the surgery 2 weeks ago and so far so good for her. She is doing well with the plan and I wish her the best of luck. She is on OH as well as. My kids have been on vacation with my mom for 3 weeks they went to KY, TN and WI. They are having so much fun but R ready to come home. I miss them so much, They come back home this weekend. Then in 1 1/2 weeks they start back to school. My cat and dog miss them so much. Well thats about it for me nothing else to report. Good Luck to everyone. Have a great rest of your Summer.

It has been awhile since I have updated on OH……My BMI is at 32.2…..I have to really watch what I eat, because I can eat anything and larger amounts. I have fallen into the trap of old habits. It is very hard for I feel I am on a diet all the time. I love to eat for the simple joy of eating I love food. Hello, that is how I got myself into this mess in the first place. So I am making every effort to watch what I eat and get outside and walking about 2 – 3 miles a walk. Now for my employment I am pleased to say that I start a new Job on July 2nd. I am going back to the mortgage field as a Administrative Assistant to the President of the Mortgage co. So if you need a mortgage email me. The money is a lot less than what I was making but they are willing to be flexible and I can work from home some days so I can still be at home with my kids if they are sick or have a day off of school. I am looking forward to starting and feel very good about this new adventure in my life. Thank you to all who have prayed for my family during this rough time in our lives. The support for everything on OH is wonderful. I wish the best of luck to all of you.

 

May 08 - How Things are going

May 06, 2008

Wow, time flies for sure. I can not believe that it has been 8 months since my RNY Surgery. My BMI is now 32.7. However my weight goes up and down for the last month. I can eat anything I want, I do not have any problems with food (except old habits are hard to break). I am so angry that I still do not have a job. I keep asking what the heck am I doing wrong. I was told that I am great on interviews, that I am very qualified, but yet no one wants to hire me. What is going on, I have to get a job maybe that is why all the stress eating…I don’t know, all I know is I am going mad. I cry all the time and I no longer can look at each day with optimism. I am scared, even though I am so grateful for this surgery I still can not help but wonder if my weight is an issue???? Hubby is working lots to help us with the bills…..there is no way he can support us on what he makes, but man the guy is working so hard to try. Please pray for us for I am so scared……I do not want to loose my home……I hope and pray that the next time I post that I will have a GREAT JOB, One that I love and make great money......Well TTYL

33.2 That is my current BMI..... The job that I had was a temp position, which now I am glad it was. It was just not a position I was interested in doing. I am now once again looking for employement. I had a 2nd interview with a company that I think I will like.  I hope all goes well. Hubby is still sick. Took him to the Dr. today he has Pnewmonia(sp).  I hope he gets well soon.  Hope to have good news about a great new job I started soon.... Easter is this Sunday, Man how time flies. Thank you Jesus for saving me.  

Happy Easter to everyone
