Sorry I've been so bad about updating. I've been working my butt off and haven't had a chance to breathe. I love being busy though, so I'm OK. My puggle is about to have puppies... OY VAY!

Thanksgiving was absolutely great! My sis and I cooked and I'd say we had everything under the sun!! I wasn't able to eat a whole lot but I had a few little bites of turkey and a taste of a few other things. Cooking and watching everyone devour the food was more fun than eating it for me!!! It was a success!!
Right now I am working a WHOLE LOT of hours. I am working full-time day shift mon-fri as an infusion nurse for visiting nurses. I am also still working at the hospital in the ICU contingent. I worked last night and tonight. I just got home not too long ago and I have to be to work with the day shift job in the morning at 8:30am for a class (I'm still in orientation). I have a lot more energy to do all this work and that's exciting!! I'm loving it!! I'm sort of a work-a-holic. Besides, Christmas is right around the corner and having the surgery sure put a damper on our finances especially because I got sick and was off longer than expected. So, I have to make up for it. If I have to work 7 days a week then so be it...lol.
I was on a plateau, or so I thought. I was staying the same weight for days and days it seemed. Then BAM as soon as I started my period I dropped 4 pounds. The next day I dropped another 4 and today I dropped 2 more. WOW!! That's incredible!! I don't think I've ever lost 10 pounds during Thanksgiving week...lol.
I went down another size in scrub pants. Before my surgery I was wearing a 3x - 4x. I now wear a large. I'm so happy!!! Well it's great to be over the "half way there hump". I now have less to lose than I have lost!!!
All is good!!
Big hugs to all of you!!! Happy Holidays!!!

WEIGHT LOSS PROGRESS
Nov 04, 2007
I'm not one to take measurements. I should, but I don't. Too time consuming I guess. However, I will keep track here of my monthly progress. I can say that the clothing is much looser, I can't even wear some of the stuff I used to wear before the surgery, it is just way too baggy...lol.
September: -29 pounds = 264 lbs
October: -12 pounds = 252 lbs
November: -22 pounds = 230 lbs

Things are good
Nov 02, 2007
Well, things are definitely better. I don't know if it's the Nexium, the new job, or a combination of the two. I'm definitely less nauseated. I haven't thrown up in a few days (knock on wood).
I've also been trying more of a variety of foods and am doing pretty well as long as it's moist...lol. AHHHHHH it's so nice to have a break from all the sickness. I'm hoping that this lasts! I do still have my moments where I pause and wonder if I'm sick again, but it seems to pass; that I can live with!
So, today I am off work. I am going to enjoy this day!
I will be updating the video on the previous post from time to time, or perhaps I'll just post new. Maybe later I'll take some pics because I'm almost half way to goal!!!!!! WOOOO HOOOO!!!
