Update Feb. 2010

Feb 01, 2010

It has been a long time since I posted here.  I spent 6 weeks back in the states after my mother's funeral, am still wrestling with emotions of losing my mother and the holidays, etc.., etc...not sure if I will ever get over losing mom.  It has been 23 years since I lost my dad and I still miss him terribly.  I am glad they are together, that is what my mom wanted, to be with him again.  So, I guess life will go on.........

I have lost a total of 130 pounds since I started the whole weight loss journey, but haven't lost any weight since September, so I am either on a very long stall or I have reached that point in my weight loss that I am now going to have to really work at it.  Either way, I am so very happy where I am, of course I would like to lose about 10 more pounds, but if I don't I am not going to obsess about it, I am very very happy where I am and am considering some plastics if I can afford it. 

I had let my vitamins and supplement slip since I have been here, mostly due to unavailability....but have been doing some research and think I have found some alternatives that will suffice.

When I was researching WLS and pouring over all the info on this site (just like many, if not most of you, did or are doing), I would spend hours looking at the before and after pictures and would just fantasize....I would look at them over and over, day after day!!!  So, I was quite surprised today, when looking at the before and after pics, I saw my own face amongst them!!  THAT is like winning grand prize, to make it to the Before and After pictures!!

We will be moving, AGAIN, to another island here in the Philippines.  Negros Oriental, to a town called Dumaguete.  It is a very nice, quaint, town, with pleny of foreigners, like me, it is cleaner, less polluted, and less crowded.  The ocean is close by and it is cooler, too.  It will be a good move, but stressful until we find a house, etc...and get settled!!
