well, well well!! its been a long time. I am 8 months post op and feeling good! on top of that i am 5 months pregnant.....uhhhh yeah pregnant! what a surprise but BLESS the LORD for the new addition. It was crazy because morning sickness i was like is this the surgery or the baby so i am still a bit unfamiliar with the surgery being that i got pregnant so soon after but everything is working good. mom and lil one....(girl) are doing fine. I was a bit disappointed to be pregnant because i could not wait for the summer to show my new body but its all good cuz now i have a smaller pregnant body! yayy. as i said im down 86 lbs not much but what a difference it makes and in fact since being pregnant i am still loosing weight which the doc said was fine. so in the meantime i pray all are wll and continue on your journey, because after all thats whay it is!

hey fam. just checking in to let you know about my progress. i ahve been doing good. it has def. ben a process. i have my good days and my bad days, but honestly it really is all worth it once you begin to see the  benefits! i have lost 37lbs so far.the only problem is the protien! help. another thing is.....eating is not enjoyable anymore. its more like a chore. oh i gotta eat again. and lets not talk about the water, it seems i cant drink the stuff anymore. oh well my doc says im doing good so we gonna roll with that.ill post some pics up later, until them keep the faith, love and pray hard!

this is my 3rd week and i am feeling fine,a nd doing great! i had my docs appt today andit went well. i am down 27lbs so far, and she said that is gud. i did not tell her i was not taking my miulti but she said i seemto be on track! one day at a time, is wut i just keep telling myself, and that works for me. i decided to go back to work early, so i can socialize again, and not have to concentrate on EATING! So next tues it will be back to my normal routine.

hi fam. 2weeks and 2days post op. so far i have lost 25lbs. very excited! i am still in the process of learning how to realize when i am full and being content with it. its gonna take more time, but i know in the end it is the best. i have leearned to slow down,chew, and think about the food infront of me! i can truly say that i am proud myself.when i sit and think about it, my world was surrounded by food, and it actually made me happy. like the other day i was telling my mother we were gonna go to the amusment park, and immedatly i began to get happy thinking about the sanwhiches and chips i could have. seem like some kinda endorfins went off and i mean i wasreally happy thinking about the food, and NOT the fun i was gonna have, but the FOOD! that was really crazy and i am glad i am begining to see areas i need to work on. man i got happy over the food i was gonna eat and not the fun at the park! and then i realized i just had the surgery and that was not gonna happen and then i got kinda depressed and did not want to go, is that not crazy or wut. i think here in the U.S. we learn this behavior because everywhere you turn there is food! i am learning that food is not eveything, and to find enjoyment in other things and not food!
