I feel like i am going to go crazy before all of this is over with. ok can time go any slower i want his over with already so that i can get busy losing weight. i feel like am going crazy . i think most of the people on here understand . cya guys later well I am home from surgery and everthing went fine. I was really nervous and to be honest just plain scared. I got something to help me relax and that was that last thing that I remember befre I woke up from surgery. I am not going to lie it was painful but not completely unbearable. I don't remember much about the day of surgery or the second day. they did have me up and walking that same evening of surgery. I have been walking a little daily and trying to drink and eat what i am supposed to.i'll try to update soon. i need to rest. so I was told by someone on here that I need to update my profile. So I am here to do just that . I have lost 57 pounds so far. I am feeling much better physically. I have went from a 26 in clothes to 18-20. At times I have a lot of energy and other times I feel that I just have to crash. So that is my update for now. How is that Meredith? Hopefully I will update sooner next time. Ok once again I am taking the time to update this thing. I am now at 186 and doing great. I sometimes still get tired though. I know that I need to exercise more. I can't wait to help others that are on this journey as well in some way. I will try to update this more often.
ok I am trying to update again . Not too much to report except I have lost 65 pounds so far. I still feel sometimes like I am still the same weight that I started out at even though I know differently. My mind seems to have a mind all its own.(lol) well I will try to update more often. later gaters It has been a long time since I have updated this thing. I am right now at 181 and stuck. Yes, I have hit the dreaded plateau. I am also have some trouble with constipation really bad. I think that it may be affecting my weight loss. (i don't know) Well that is all that I can think up right now so hopefully I will update again soon. later I am once again taking the time to update my profile. So far I have lost 127 pounds. I have went from a tight size 26 to a loose size 14. I am extremely happy with the results and would do this surgery again in a heart beat. I wish that all stories could go this well for everyone. This is one of the best things that I have ever done for me.
Sleep Apnea is a serious, potentially life-threatening condition that is far more common than generally understood. First described in 1965, sleep apnea is a breathing disorder characterized by brief interruptions of breathing during sleep. Morbid Obesity is not a simple condition of eating too much. It is now recognized that obesity is a serious, chronic disease. No human condition — not race, religion, gender, ethnicity or disease state — compares to obesity in prevalence and prejudice, mortality and morbidity, sickness and stigma.

Well once again I am trying to update this thing. I have been soooo slack in doing this. This has really been a wild ride. I have enjoyed most of it except for the problems with my husband. I won't go into to much detail on that though. When I started this journey I also made a lot of other changes in my life. I started back to school to get a college education. I have just about accomplished this. Hopefully, I will graduate by christmas. I am also more outspoken than I used to be. That is not really a bad thing. Is it?
