Well....I am officially in the 140's! I cannot even fathom the thought of being in the 140's...I never imagined ever getting this low. I am so very blessed to have gotten here with little discomfort. I am thankful  that God  allowed me to go through this journey and make the friends that I have on here. I pray that all of you out there are getting the results that you want too. It feels so good to be able get out in the yard and play with the kids or go on  family walks and out walk all of 'em!! It feels amazing! I am not trying to boast here..I am just so excited to have gotten to a weight that I never thought I would! I guess I am going to have to go make a new weight goal on my weight tracker site!! Thanks for your friendship and support!! I appreciate it dearly!! God bless you all!!

That's right..I said it!! 120 pounds gone! I feel phenomenal! I could not believe the scale as I got in for my weekly weigh-in this morning! My weight has been stuck at 153 for almost a week now..then all of a sudden when I am not paying attention..it just drops! YEAH!! I am now in a size 8 comfortably...not even tight...and LOVING it!! I wear a Medium in tops..which is something I cannot remember ever wearing!! I feel great and I hope all of you do too! I am always cold, but I would take being cold over being a fatty any day!! Wouldn't you? I hope that all of you out there are doing great and enjoying this beautiful weather that God has blessed us with this week!

My husband left on a business trip on Monday for the next 3 weeks..and that stinks because I don't function too good w/out him...so I need all the friends I can get at this point...thanks for all of your support throughout my journey..I gotta get back to work, but I am on here a few times a day doing some snooping on my pals..so keep updating!!

So, I just got back from New York with my husband...He surprised me on Christmas with a trip to New York for New Years!! I was so surprised! I screamed for like 5 minutes! I had gotten a gift of a trip to New York about 5 years ago to see the Christmas tree lighting and see a few of my favorite people sing...Harry Connick Jr, a few American Idol folks, Kelly Clarkson,...etc! We had so much fun! I did so much walking..I think I saw the whole city of New York!! Not really, but it felt like it by the end of the first day!! It snowed the whole first day and half the night we were there...then it got COLD!! Oh my goodness!! I am sure everyone there knew I was from Florida!! I was wrapped up all the way to my eyes...and they were only unwrapped so that I could see to walk around. You can just imagine how cold I was..I mean..read a few of my past posts!! I am cold in 74 degree weather in Florida! !!  Imagine it being 13 degrees with wind blowing!! OOOOHHHHH MMMMMYYYYY GGGGGOOOOODDDNNNNEEEESSSSS!! I could not feel my toes or fingers! I slept with all my clothes on and a robe from the hotel! I could not warm up! I am beginning to think that my iron is low. i have noticed that I am starting to look really pale too. I really need to start taking my pills again regularly ...I have been forgetting way too often! I hope all of you had a wonderful New Year!! I know I did! Good luck to you if you are just starting out...and if you are  postie like me....start updating!! BTW-Check out my new pics!!

Okay..so I know it has been a while since I have been on here (and posted..I come on here everyday)...anyway..life has been busy...and I am now working with a personal trainer...which hopefully I will see a difference real soon....I have been soooo sore!!! Boy oh boy!.....well needless to say..I couldn't type for a few days...OUCH! This is pitiful what we do to our bodies to look good!! AND WE EVEN PAY MONEY TO DO IT!!! What are we thinking?? WEll, anyway, I am doing well and by the looks of it, the majority of my OH friends are too! Thanks to all who keep encouraging me..I will continue to reciprocate! I am so very excited about Christmas!!! It is my favorite time of the year...and I am anticipating the looks on my children's faces when they see their gifts!! I hope all of you have a wonderful and blessed Christmas...May we not forget the reason we celebrate this time of year!! Gofts are nice, but CHRIST IS BETTER!! Anyway...off to the gym...uuuurrrgghhhhh!! Wish me luck!

I did it!! 100 pounds!! I have been waiting for the day to scream it on a mountain top!! I am no longer FAT!!!! I was so excited when I looked down at the scale...because it has been right there close for about a week now...and it was just 99 yesterday..I just knew that I would see it this morning or maybe Monday morning..and I got up this morning and it was 101!!! I am only 9 pounds from my original goal...looks like I am going to have to change that here real quick! I just had to share this moment with you..Now I can be one of those people with a "centurey card"...I cannot wait to figure out how to do it so I can show it off!! Good luck to all of you out there who are still on this journey too!! God bless you all and if I don't post again for a while, HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!! GETCHA' SOME!!

I am happy to report that I am now only 1 and 1/2 pounds away from what I weighed when I got pregnant with my daughter who just turned 4 last month...and haven't been this weight since 7 or 8 years prior to that time!! Boy am I excited!! I feel fabulous and look pretty good too from what I am hearing lately!! It feels so great to be getting compliments left and right..I'll take it anyday!! I am in a size Large BUTTON UP dress shirt and a size 12..that's right..I said 12 dress pant!! I will take some new pics later today on one of my "new" outfits!! Better take it quick before they don't fit anymore!! Just Kidding!! Anyway, good luck to those of you who are just starting your journey..it is a wild ride!! (but well worth the chance!!) God Bless You all..and Happy Fall!!

I am almost 6 months out and am down a whopping 92 pounds...was hoping to do the BIG 100 for my 6 month surgiversary...we shall see!! I feel great and from what I hear...am looking pretty great too! I am fitting loosely in 14's now and am starting to get a few 12's..which absolutely BLOWS MY MIND!! I don't think I am doing anything differently...I think my body is finally giving in...it is not fighting me anymore! YEAH! I am still struggling to remember to take my vitamins and stuff, but  I am truly working on that issue! I am planning on finding a personal trainer today...I cannot do this exercise thing alone...SO anyway, check out my new pics..I will upload some more as I get them...Good luck to all who are reading this and my God bless you!!

I just had to update and let everyone know that I am so very thankful for all of you that support me daily! If it weren't for people like you, I don't know if I would be doing so well. I was struggling for a long while it seemed, and now I am having a little easier time with my eating and drinking. I lost 5 pounds this week!! Unbelievable I know! I feel like I run around like a chicken wth my head cut off daily!! I stay so busy that I wonder how I ever fit eating into my schedule before surgery! I am feeling good and besides all the sagging skin..I am looking pretty good too! Check out my new pics from the Sugarland concert!! I had such a wonderful time! Good luck to all of you out there who have just started your  journey...it's a wild ride sometimes!!

I just have to share this experience with you all..seeing that you are probably the only one's that can relate!! I went to Applebee's today for lunch...YUMMY TOMATO BASIL SOUP!! Anyway, had to go pee..I know TMI..The first stall was open and so I went in..I got in there, doing my business and realized that the stall was maybe 4 foot wide and I had no problem getting in and getting my pants down...Now 6 months ago, I would not have even attempted to fit in there...the whole sliding my clean clothes and body up against a nasty door and wall and toilet..you get the picture!! How do they get away with making those stalls so small?? Somebody needs to say something!! That is soooo unsanitary!! EEEWWW!! I was so excited to have fit in there without a problem...Sorry I had to share!!

It has been a long time since I have updated...I know..I have been doing okay since the last month update. I have lost a total of 83 pounds...YEAH!! I am wearing some 14's now...I am loosly fitting in 16's  and am not pushing it too much to wear all 14 size clothes. I received a surprise from my husband, who is out of town for the past week with one more week to go...He is ion Perry Georgia on business. I will be going up to see him this Friday and then we will come home together on Monday. Anyway, he got me a ticket to see Sugarland in concert on Sunday night.. I am so ready for a break from everything!! I went and redeemed one of my "personal goal" treats , I promised myself when I reached 200 pounds, I would reward myself with a new pair of "cowgirl" boots! That is exactly what I did yesterday after work! I not only got myself some boots, but I got me a couple of pair of jeans and a few shirts. I am going to look "HOTT" when I see my honey again!! I hope his eyes pop out of his head!!

I know that I need to get more into exercising and making sure that I take my pills everyday..Keep me in your prayers...I need them!! I will update some pics soon of my month 5 body..it hasn't changed much...but then again..I see it everyday!!
