Where does the time go? Oh that is right I have been living!

Aug 19, 2009

It has been a while since I have been on here.  I have just been very busy this summer!

I have lost 152 lbs since my surgery.  It has been great!  I love it that I am able to go somewhere and see someone that I have seen in a long time and people know who I am.  Too funny when you see the looks on their face! 

I am feeling really good and things are getting easier to eat and my diet is getting much better! 

I am sorry that I have been updating much!  I miss talking to all of you and hope that you are doing well.

Hope that you all are enjoying your summer!

1 Year! WOOO HOOO! Down 134lbs!

May 03, 2009

Hello there Party People!  I know that I don't seem to get on here as much as I used too!  We are busy with life and life has been so much better than it was last year at this time! 

I have made it a year and things are good...who I am kidding???  Things are great!  I still have another 22 lbs to go, but I am just happy with where I am at!  It has really slowed down, but I am just glad that I am to enjoy life with my family!  Before my WLS life was just bluh...but now I am really loving life!  I work way too much, but I have the drive!

I have missed talking to all of you on here.  I hope that you are doing well and drop me a line, when you have time!

Nothing to really update!

Feb 28, 2009

Here it is a month later!  I haven't lost another lb.  I am not sure what is going on!  Things are going good.  I am still having a full feeling!  I just don't understand why I am still at the same weight.  I make sure that I am drinking enough water.  I have noticed that I am able to get little bit more (certain foods) in.  I have been keeping my journals and things are looking okay.  I guess I need some help.

I don't know if I am wrong for thinking that I need to get rid of more this weight...I should be happy that I have lost 127lbs.  Somtimes I wonder why it has stopped.  I guess that I should just be happy that it I have not gain any weight..

People keep telling me how good I look and what a change they see in me!  I have noticed that my body has really changed and my sizes are changing!  I have more confindence and self pride.  When I talked to my doctor he said that my body is just taking a break...he said my body is IN SHOCK!  I want more...I guess I should just be happy with what I have lost...

If anyone has anything that can help me...let me know!

9 months! WOO HOO!

Feb 01, 2009

It has been nine months!  What a nine months it has been!  I would have to say this is one of the best things that could have happened in my life.  When I started this I weighed 356 lbs!  When I think of how I felt...not to mention how I felt on the inside about my outside! 

Since my surgery, people have said that they are starting to see the "old Cindy!"  Before I gained all of that weight, I liked to dance and have a good time.  I can't dance at all...but I give it a heck of a try!  HA HA   I was so confident before...then the way came on and that Cindy went away!  Now I am getting back to where I was before!  I feel so much better!  I was so big...now I feel so great!  Inside it feels like I will always be the "fat girl" of the group...but I am working on that! 

I have to thank God for everything that he has gave me in life.  My family has been so great...I love them so much!  They are so good too me and I know that I have not made it easy on them...but they are always there for me!

I started this process at 356lbs now I am at 227...what a great loss!  I am sure that it is one that I am not going to miss it being gone! 

Thanks to all of my online friends that have been so good to me!

Well, I am slowing down!

Jan 17, 2009

I have been tested and everything is going okay.  My blood work is great and my food journals are looking good.  I have been keeping close track to what I eat and drink!  Don't know why things are slowing down.  I guess my body is going to just take its time to get get rid of these last 30lbs.  I was so shocked when everything came back okay.  I can't complain...116lbs gone is nothing to complain about.  I guess I just want more.  I want to make it too my goal so bad!  I am sure that I will get it done before my one year mark.  I just would like to have it done now.

I know that I should be updating more, but things are crazy here.  I have been working so much and then working out!   I feel like I am going to just kill over when I get home.  Things will get better!

Hope that all of my on-line friends are doing well!  Keep up the good work!

Something to be thankful for!

Nov 30, 2008

At times I would have to say that I wasn't sure if I made the right choice to have this surgery.  Those would have been my bad days in the begining!  This past holiday made me think that I made the right choice!  I am giving myself many more holidays with my family and friends.  I am feeling so much better health wise and so much better about my body!  It is so fun to see people that you haven't seen in a long time.  I love the shock factor!  That makes you feel good as well.

I did it!  I am over a 100 lbs!  It is good to know that I did it and there is more to come! 

Thank you too all of my on-line friends that helped me when I got down!  Things are looking up!  For that reason, I am very thankful too you all!

Well, I have made it 6 Months!

Oct 30, 2008

Don't know how I did it, but here we are!  I made it!

This has been a crazy road...some days I don't know if I would travel it again and then are days that I would jump to do it again...it all depends on the day I guess.  It has been so good going shopping for new clothes.  I really enjoy seeing people that I haven't seen in six months.  It has been so good to hear people go on and on about how "GOOD" I look.  It makes me think...I must have looked like crap before.  HA HA 

The weight loss is going slower...but I have seen my doctor and he is happy with the loss so far! 

I will update more often...or I hope that I will...

Thanks to all of my on-line buddies for being there for me!

Hello there Friends! I have made it under 250!

Oct 04, 2008

I never thought that this day would get here.  I have lost a total of 91lbs!    With this being my fifth month...things are starting to slow down.  It is okay...I know what I have to do!   I just need to work out more...where do I find the time?  I am going to just make time.  My husband is going to start with me.  He has lost 32lbs since my surgery. 

Things have been so much better since I started doing better with the water intake. 

I am ready for this hair to stop coming out like crazy...this will pass!

260...no longer!

Sep 09, 2008

I have said good-bye to the 260's.  I was ready to see them go!  Now, I am ready to kick the 250's butt! 

I know that I need to update more often...been really busy! 

Thanks to all of my friends on here that keep me updated on their progress and think of me on mine.


what a time in my life!

I feel that I don't get enough protien in my diet.  I have really working on it.  It seems that I all get done is counting how many grams I am getting or how many oz I am getting of water.  I don't think that I am having a problem with my fluids.  It might have been a problem in the begining...but I do drink  a lot now. 

My hair seems to be falling out like crazy.  My friend that it is not uncommon...just don't understand if I am getting enough protien...then why is it falling out?  If anybody out there that has a few hints for me...let me know. 

I am down 76 lbs.  It seems like it has slowed down.  Don't know what I am doing wrong.  It has been 4 months...does anyone have the same problems?  if you have had these concerns and know what to do...let me know!
