More Determined Than Ever Before

Jul 07, 2009

I haven't posted on my progress in quite some time. The reason is simple. SHAME.   I was doing well..and went through a terrible situation with my relationship. I was engaged to be married and a couple of weeks before the wedding, he met someone else and instantly moved in with her. Very humiliating. VERY destructive for one's diet!!!

To sum up a long story, I found myself weighing in at 388 on Christmas Day. MY LARGEST I swear I was miserable... 

I went to see my doctor begging for him to approve WLS and he refused. He said he never saw that I lost weight because I only came in to see him AFTER I had re-gained the weight I had lost.  So I was determined then ever to show him.  By June 16th, I had lost 44lbs. I was SO EXCITED! I was sure I could do this on my own after all. I was a slow, easy process. I changed what I ate, I joined the RAC and started Aqualogix classes. I love those.

Mid-June I went on vacation. While I was with people, on the way to Michigan and the entire time I stayed there, I did real well. On my way back...I was alone...I blew it.  I gained 10 lbs back in a matter of THREE DAYS.

It was during this time that I made up my mind to have the WLS. I had already decided on what type I wanted, if I were to ever get it done. I never suggested it before because I didn't know how my (ex) SO would have taken the news.  Thinking back, I wonder if he was a chubby chaser?  Oh well. At any rate, I have made the decision and am very excited at what the future will bring.
