I have not been on here is a while and things have slowed down for me...I have even gained some weight.  I am sad and feel defeated.  What to do???  :(

Things have been going well since the last time I posted.  I have now lost 47 pounds and things are looking up.  Now the clothes are starting to get too large and that feels great!  I never knew how wonderful it felt for my clothes to be falling off.  The only problem is that now I will need a new wardrobe soon.  I will not buy any new clothes until I have lost 100 pounds!  I am happy though with the weight loss and thankful that it is coming off consistently now!  YAY ME!!

I have been jumping on and off of the scale for weeks now.  I have been driving my self insane.  I have lost just about 40 pounds since my surgrey which was 12/13/10 which I feel is great.  I just wish I could get it together.  I have been cheating and having things that I know full well I should not have like soda and candy...I know better.  The temptation is horrible.  So now at 2 months out, I need to buckle down.  It is not like I can eat a lot but I need to focus more and get things together working towards my goal.  I want to be 180lbs...If anyone has any suggestions please help!

Things were going so well.  I started losing weight and feeling great and now all of a sudden I am at a stand still...It is like the weight just stopped coming off.  I am so frustrated right about now and I dont know what to do.  It is so early in the game for this mess.  I think it is partially my fault as I have been on the scale every day and making it control me.  The minute I see that there is a difference I go crazy!!Ok it is a new week so I hope I get it right this week because right about now, I feel so sad...

I can no believe it I have lost 27 pounds since my surgery date of 12/13.  All I have to say is thank God!  I mean I so desperately wanted to lose weight and it is finally happening.  For the first time in a long time I am looking forward to summer time and being a smaller size!  That is just going to be wonderful.  I am looking forward to going to an amusement park and getting on rides, fitting properly into a booth at resturant, running up the stairs and not feeling like I am going to have a heart attack, playing with my son in the park and not just sitting down looking at him, wearing a pair of shorts and feeling comfortable, just being overall happy with the way I look.  Those are things that are often taken for granted, that I will be finally able to enjoy for the first time in a long time.  I will finally live again.  I will thank God for the rest of my life because I will make it my life goal to never go through this again!

Since my surgery I have been eating the soft pureed stuff and things have been going alright.  Now, I have a problem.  Nothing is staying down.  I try to eat foods as soft as possible, but they just wont stay down.  I dont know what is going on.  I think I need to take a trip to the doctor to find out what is going on.  On a brighter side, I have lost 2 more pounds, which make my grand total since surgery 22 pounds!!! YAY ME!! but, I cant eat and when I do I get heart burn.

It has been almost 2 weeks since my surgery and I have already lost 20 pounds.  Since yesterday I got on the scale and was shocked when I saw that I had lost some more weight.  The ounces went up a little but it is still the same.  WOW, I can not even believe it.  God is Good!!!

I have been really making a lot of changes in my life since my surgery.  One of the greatest changes is the food that I eat.  Since I have been on the soft diet, I can not eat much.  However, what this has done for me is forced me to take a long look at all of the things that I used to eat.  I never realized how much food I would eat througout the day.  I would eat McDonalds, stuff around the house, anything.  I loved chocolate (still do) but realize that I can not eat the way I used to.  I am ok with this because now that the weight is slowly coming off, I feel really good about my self and for the first time in a long time, I love me!!

This is a true rebirth.  I am very blessed and happy to have made it through this.  I must say that when I woke up in that operating room and realized that I am alive I was happy but when that pain set in I was like OH JESUS!!!  I love percocets, as they are my best friend these days but each day it gets better.  The pain are going away and I am able to eat more than a spoon of food.  I dont have the appetite that I used to have but, I guess that is a good thing.  Be blessed everyone and thanks for all of the support.Bed time now...

Here I am still in the hospital and it is day 2.  I was in so much pain yesterday but today is a better day.  This is the best hospital with some of the most professional people ever!  I am looking forward to getting better and feeling better.  I am blessed, I am not having any issues at this time.  The only thing I look forward to at this point is going home.  My baby boy and parents came to see today and they made my day.  I am lost for words at this time...More later!
