Here I am, week 37 of this pregnancy. Scheduled C Section for April 3rd...I've gained all of 15lbs this pregnancy, and loving it! I'm ready to get back on the wagon though and be in my size 6's by my birthday in June...I've bought several pair of capri's in sz 8 &  6 just awaiting this baby belly to go BYE BYE! :)

I'm feeling good...basically I'm ALL BELLY, and no weight anywhere else....it's been an eye opener for me though, at 9 mo pregnant I still don't even come close to "filling out" all my extra skin on my stomach! I'll be so excited when I can finally have my tummy tuck...that'll be GREAT!

Well just wanted to update on how i am...when I get the chance I'll post pics of the baby and of me!!! Talk to everyone soon!

Wow, how time flies...ok, so I'm in my 26th week of pregnancy, I've gained 8lbs...and feeling good...baby is active..BTW it's a little boy...we're so excited! His name will be:

William Kenneth Joesph after my grandfather, my husband, and my husband's grandfather.

We'll call him Will

trying to get things ready for the little guy...

I'm looking forward to having him(they'll be taking him no later than April 3rd) and then getting back into the swing of losing...I'm hopeful to be in a size 6 by June 18th (my birthday) right now I can still wear regular sz 12 jeans (low rise)...I was in a size 10 dress pants 10/12 jeans prior to the pregnancy...so feeling good about all that!

Hope everyone is doing well...I'll check in again soon

   I feel AWESOME...I got married to the love of my life Kenny on May 10th...several of my friends from OH were there or sent well wishes! thank you guys!!!! I am currently weighing in at 165lbs....just got a new driver's license and a new pic to boot...size 10 jeans are fitting me YIPPIE and I'm excited that I'm near my goal! My original goal was 135, but I'm pretty sure it's going to take plastic surgery to remove the extra skin to get that low...I'm shooting for 150lbs at this point and think i'll be more than happy with that! I'm trying my best to keep this updated...I know it's been awhile...but I just want to be an encouragement to those who have not yet had the surgery...hang in there your day is coming...i feel like a new person and i wouldn't change this surgery for ANYTHING!

Ok, so the weight loss is sloooow going at the moment, but the scales are still going DOWN, which is a good thing! I'm currently wearing a comfortable sz 12 jeans and I'm thinking when I go to the mall tomorrow I'm going to try on some size 10's just for the hell of it! :) I'm weighing in at about 182 and feeling GREAT! Can't wait for summer, just bought a new two piece bathing suit (with a wrap for good measure)

I'm posting some new pics, take a look and tell me what ya think! Hugs eveyone...see you at the clothing exchange next saturday!

ok, not a productive month in the weight loss catagory...I'm standing strong at 190lbs...size 14-16...feeling good...looking better :) and trying to keep this thing updated...my personal life has been such a mess since November that it's a wonder I've lost any weight...but still the scales are moving down...so I'm not complaining...I mean I started this journey with the number 3 in front of my weight, and now there's a 1 there....so who's complaining???? NOT ME! :)

besides that not much shakin...hope everyone here is doing well and I'll update again SOON!

Here I am 196 and a size 16 comfortably...it's amazing how far I've come in less than 6 months! I've lost 110 lbs...and I'm so excited about it. I've lost all that weight and a husband in this process, and I've gained more than I could have ever imagined I would....a new love, and a new lease on life!!! How wonderful its that? :) I have added a new pic as my avatar and you can see the huge change if you go back and look at my pics...

Just updating my profile as I said I would keep this up...life is moving quickly, but I'm trying to keep up.

5 month Surgeryversary...

I'm 214lbs now, and still moving forward...I'm very happy with my progress...I have not posted in awhile because a lot has been going on in my personal life. On Nov. 21st my husband of 16 1/2 yrs and I seperated and I am filing for divorce on Friday this week. 

I have never been happier though...no longer do I have to wonder what I'm coming home to....I have already met a man....I know it's soon, but I'm so in love with this man...I was not looking, I was not trying, it just happened...he kind of fell into my lap, and I am so happy I can barely stand it!!! 

I'm hoping to make it to the clothing exchange on Saturday and I'm bringing him with me if I do. I miss posting on the board and I'm going to get back to doing it ASAP...also hope to have some new pictures up pretty soon!

Ok, that's about it....for now...I'll be back to post more soon!

Hugs,
jen
