114 pounds lost

Oct 22, 2015

 So in 26 weeks I have lost 114 pounds which I think is great, I have a great support system, My family and friends are being so supportive.. That makes this journey so much easier. I have 5 to 6 pants size depends on the make. Everyone is saying how great I am looking. Which makes me feel so good. I am so glad I choose to have Gastric bypass, This is a lifestyle change I am so happy with.  I set really small weekly goals And hit them every week. The only thing that still bothers me is the fact My Bwc doctor will only let me walk until I have back surgery to fix a messed up vertabre. I am hoping to get that done soon. Cause The healing process is 3 mos, then I will have pyhiscal Therapy!
Then I will be able to really work out. I  have learned so much about Eating .. That you don't have to hate food you just need to wacth your intake of certain foods.  Going through This journey has really helped me to not over eat when depressed or sad, I have lost 4 family member in six months.  I am only six months out from surgery too. I truely miss each and everyone of them dearly. My Grandpa Jack A firefighter and my hero just passed away on may 10 2011. I Really miss him but I know he is in a better place.  My mother In-law passed away in Dec I  miss her so much no one even knows how much, I only wish could have been able to see the changes. She was so worried and scared of this surgery. I feel she would have a different look at it if she could she the changes I have made, and how well I am doing ! In Jan I lost my Dads siter she was 49 and a single mom now I am taking care of my cousin, But I am happy he wanted to be with me, He has always been close to my son. In Feb I lost my 17 year old cousin to a car wreck he passed on my neice birthday.  Also in that wreck his 18 year old friend passed away, the wreck was single car my cousin lost control of his truck on ice on a country rd . My Grandpa Passed on his daughter Birthday He was so special to all of us . Firefighters are true heros and he will always be mine I owe the fact that I am alive today to him cause if it weren't for his training  I would not be here. So happy That I am over comming my fears of over eating ! So to all who are just starting out with you journery keep your head up you will see that you too are doing great too.

Good bless all of you and thanks for your support too.
