I am grateful to be back on OH and get support. I am having a TT, Breast Lift & Implants, fat injected to my buttocks.  Just being here communicating with people that have gone through or going through what I have been through is amazing. I realize I am never alone with OH.  Thank you all.  Life and work got in the way as I had to survive with the economy change being single and I made it.  I forgot OH and it was wonderful the first year and a few months that I was on daily.  Maybe even a year and a half.

Just being here, my body mind and spirit remembers and automatically feel on track.  its weird and a good feeling....  Funny how the body remembers.   even eating clean for sooOOoo long and although the last two months have changed  its like I am on track and it never happened.  My body remembers...  

 Living life to its fullest.  This month I have been eating more. maybe holidays or stress or just because
I may be a little comfortable now that I lost weight.  I have to remember that it is easier to put on than
to take it off.  I am up a couple of pounds this month.

I was blessed to be asked to be in the Rose Parade by Kaisers fitness program called Thrive. That is there Motto.
I walked 5 miles besides the float in the parade. Its was such an awesome feeling and the coolest gift to be
able to see the rose parade behine the scenes and from the parade itself!  Kaiser gave me back my life with the
sleeve and now I get to support and participate with the coolest stuff.  

Thank you Kaiser for giving me my life back.   Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuah!!!

Yesterday was 10 months. I have completely changed my outlook at life, towards people, places and things.
Not only did I fall in love with my sleeve...  Its me who I fell in love with.  Mentally I brought GOD into my recovery.
I also do outside support groups and therapy.  I love how clean I eat.  dont get me wrong, I have eaten everything
but I DO NOT EAT RECREATIONAL SUGAR!  I am allergic and get hives. its also gets me drunk and i cannot stop.
some people can, but unfortunately i get sick and i am one who cannot! Its hard to believe I am a member of the century
club now and have lost 101 pounds.  I cannot believe I am seeing 140`s again.  9 more pounds to goal!
Thank you Jesus, Thank you OH, Thank you My NUTS who are my mommy and daddy, & thank you all my outside support
groups!
A celebration of life.

I lost 2 .7 pounds this month. I went to see my NUTS on the 1st of NOV which gave me exactly 9 months out.
I will get labs back next week. I am in New York right now loving life.  Yes I stayed away from the pizza
and the dumplings in china town.  Anyhow, I am overeating healthy food.  I am going to work on cutting
it down. I eat like 5 or 6 times a day and I should only be eating 3 times a day.  ughhhhhh.  I have to admit it
is hard but a must.  I also have not been around OH and realize I need it more
now that ever.  Here is my 9 month photo in New York.

Today is a Celebration!!!!!!!  My BMI is Normal!
I am NO longer Morbid Obese, I am NO longer Obese, I am NO longer considered
Overweight!  Today My BMI shows as follows....  24.8
My starting BMI at heaviest was 40.3   WOW!!!! Thank you Jesus!!!

Hello,
So my truth is i have a situation in life that is causing me severe stress.
This is my 4th 3rd job ( if that makes any sense) in 5 1/2 months.
My new job is very very stressful and it doesnt make me the $$$ I thought
I was going to make. Having said this,  I havent drank enough water the
last 3+ weeks since I have started working. Today I started to work on the water
goal only to find the scale really jumped up.  Yes it toys with my head.
I thought this month i was down a couple of pounds. My lowest was 155.8 and Now I am
back up to 159.8.  Yes I ate more this month and that is why the scale hasnt moved.
I justified, I am stressed, filled with excitement with promotion, and yes I have anxiety
AND a situation happened at work yesterday which hurt my feelings so therefore I might
be a little jealous of a situation and resentful.  I am up 1.6 pounds from month 7.
Tomorrow I will go back into ketosis and yes that means stop the love of my life for a bit and that
is my breakfast green smoothies.  However when I drink my green smoothies I can stay in mild
ketosis, its really all the other stuff....  my green smoothies arent what does it to me...  its the other stuff
this month.  I just need to get back to ketosis and that means stay under 50 grams of carbs for me. high
40`s.   I had to dump because this is where I am at.   I also need to read this when I re-visit my journey.
This is my recorded journal / History montly progress report.

Wow, Its hard to believe it has been 7 months. Time is just flying by.
Here are my 7 month Photo.

Today I weigh 158.4
I lost 91.6 pounds so far.
This last month I lost 7.1 pounds.

My Goal is 140

I am very very grateful....  I can walk today... that is the most important
thing for me.  God has answered my prayers... My hives are gone & I can walk!!!!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I am now 6 months out. I am very grateful to have lost 12 pounds this last month.
I am so into Green Smoothies, Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade and herbs.

I have to admit, reading about the first month honey moon stage and after that it slows
down...  scares me.  I am keeping the faith and time will tell.  They tell me i will have to
work harder for it. 

I am very grateful for this surgery. Dr Edward Mun at SouthBay Kaiser Hospital is AWESOME
and has saved my life.  My NUTS are what keep me going, Xavier, Suzanne, & Catherine.
They are Awesome.

Here are my 6 months photos.  I have posted monthly photos since surgery.
I am amazed by all this.

WOW I cannot believe it. I weighed in today and Lost 6 pounds this week.
I sooOOOooo blame it on the Green Smoothies and my morning snack of fruit only!
