And baby makes 4!

May 28, 2008

Hello I am sorry I have been around lately. I haven't been around for awhile. I haven't been able to do much with my weight loss.
   In March we found out the surprising news that I AM PREGNANT!!!
   The first trimester was sooooo very hard! I was diagnosed with sever morning sickness, and boy was I tired!
   But everything has been going well! A healthy heartbeat and I am down 75 pounds total. I lost a few pounds in the first trimester and now I am just right at 206 staying right there not going up or down. I still am not into maternity clothes really.
   I ofcourse wasn't supposed to get pregnant yet it was a OH MY! But we are happy about it and  things are going well and I will continue my journey after the birth of my baby!
   Today I am 17 weeks and 1 days along. Next week we find out what we are having and I am so excited! Well anyway thats the news on me! I will try to upload some pictures! Have a great summer!

Hello and thanks for keeping up with me!
Well lets see its been about 10 weeks and I am down 60 pounds and it feels fabulous! I get  so many compliments and I just feel wonderful. More energy, just more healthier. I am so glad I did the surgery.

   Heres a new family picture we had done tonight, this is so huge for me I hate absolutly HATE pictures of myself but I love this family picture!

I don't feel disgust when I look at it! I am so happy I feel like things are going so well right now! I noticed the weight is slowing about 2- 3 pounds a week but I still think thats more than I would have done without the surgery! SO its cool.

  I am going to the gym 3-4 times  aweek and its getting easier. SO life is good the surgery was a succsess, that may sound odd since I haven't met my goal quite yet, but I see it as a succsess becasue I am healthier, I am cooking healthier which means my family is healthier and if I didn't lose another pound I am alot healthier now than I was 12 weeks ago so to me that spells out succsess!

Ok well I am off to bed thanks for keeping up with me :)

almost 4 weeks

Dec 27, 2007

Hello. Its been almost 4 weeks since surgery. Finally I am feeling good I had so many problems with thngs I found out I was allergic too. My only problem now is where the drain was its still really sore. But I am going back to the gym, and starting to excersise. For awhile it was so hard because I had all these rashes and it was awful but I think I found everything I was allergic to and am now moving on yay :)

    I am around 35 pounds since the liquid diet so thats really good I am so happy!  Things seem to be going well with the eating eggs is horrible if I try to eat them. Otherwise everything else has been good. The protien drinks are really hard to do. Oh and remembering to take so many vitamins is hard too other wise its good though :)

Well thats about it for now :)

My next update!

Dec 11, 2007

    Well I have had a set back. I have not been pleased with my dr. office. I was having pain with the drain all weekend. Just not feeling right. I called Monday morning first thing promised to call me back. As the morning went on I started to hurt when I breath especially deep breaths. called back around 1 was promised a quick response. Said my dr was in surgery but would get a note to him and she would call back asap! Nothing I just decided to goto the local ER.

   WEll lonog story short after 3 hours of waiting I have early pnemonia :(
and when the drain is at it is very red and tender. So I am on antibiotics. I am annoyed that the follow up is not what I expected.

  I did get a call today and they moved my date up to remove the drain to wed instead of thurs.

But in all of this there is good news, I have no in 22 days lost 28.50 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sound happy about this! My clothes are so loose on me! I only have been wearing pjs and jogging pants because I am so paranoid with the drain. I can't wait to start getting some new clothes! HA!

Well thats my update! I have 52.50 to go before I meet my first goal which is to be under 200 pounds! I am 28 pounds closer! WOOHOO! I have 127 pounds more for my main goal, I am feeling positve.

    Ok so this is a sensitive subject my weight. Atfirst I didn't think it would matter because I didn't "know" anyone. Well me and my social ways I have begun to make some friends. Which I reazlie it isn't so hard with positive thoughts going and all.

   Ok so today I went into work (I don't have a scale anymore I did and didn't like it and never got a new one so I just use the ones at work lol cheap skate I know) I had to turn my dr slip in and I really wanted to weigh myself, I normally do it without shoes in p.j.'s (its a group home so relaxed atmosphere) well I I had jogging pants on and my shoes and this drain thing so I think I should also mimus a couple pounds but I weight in and it is 18.50 pounds I have lost since starting my liquid diet! So I am figuring I am at 20 pounds! WOOHOO! That gives me inspiration! I am really excited about this!

Hello I am Jamie. I just tunred 30 years old on November 22 I was a Thanksgiving birthday. I am a happily married woman for 8 a half years. We have a 3 year old daughter who doesn't realize she is ONLY 3! HA!

 I have battled weight since I was around 10 or so It wasn't bad early but chubby as I got older it got harder. At one time when I was about 20 for a year or 2 I was at my lowest adult weigth 135 I did a door to door sales job and was broke so I didn't eat much and no life it was awful but I did look good! HA!

   Well I am at my heaviest and want to change. So I am going in to have the Sleeve. I am very nervous which I am a overly nervous person probably why I have the weight issues,  I am trying to stay positive. I am sure it will be ok. I will be glad in a couple weeks when this is all a distant memory!

 I work full time outside the home, I run a group home of 3 adults whom are mentally disabled, I love my job most of them time, the pay stinks but I do enjoy it and I have a flexible schedule so that works for us!

Well I guess thats about it. I am ready and willing to make the steps to my next journey in life to a new healthier me!
