WOW, tomorrow is 5 years.  I can't believe it.  I gained a few pounds after being laid off but nothing crazy.  Need to get rid of about 15 to be back to were I want to stay.  At one time I was actually too skinny, can't believe I said that. LOL  Feel great, my brother was just talking to me today about possibly getting surgery also.  I know it was the best thing I ever did.

5 lbs, 10 oz, 18 1/2 inches.
She was born in the back of an ambulance in my driveway, no time for trip to hospital. 

Well I am almost 7 months pregnant and am still losing, a lot slower but still going down.  by the time my other 2 children were born i was well over the 300 lb mark, as of this morning i am 172.4.  amazing!  this kid is very active too, maybe being thinner i notice it more.  anyway just wanted to update.

100 lbs gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I go to the ob again in the morning, i need to do the glucose tolerance test.  that should be fun, since after gastic bypass, i get sick eating 1 cookie, and i have to drink 6 oz of pure sugar in 10 minutes.  Yeah sure!

0.4 lb to go to reach the 100 lbs lost mark. can't wait!  my OB is not liking that i am still loosing weight at almost 4 months pregnant but i am doing my best at eating more, it's not easy with a stomache the size of a golf ball.

I found out 2 weeks ago that i am pregnant. about 7 weeks now. scarry since i am only 5 months out for rny. trying to eat a little more that ussual to feed the baby but it is not easy. as of this morning i am still losing weight, it has slowed down a lot but still coming off. hopefully i get enough nutrition to feed the baby, i was in shock when i found out, i had been using the Nuva Ring for birth control, but my OB says if it wasn't refrigerated at the pharmacy when i got it that could of been the problem. i can't remember!

when i started my weight loss i was wearing a size 24, i slowly dropped to an 18, then 16 i have been wearing the 16's for about 2 weeks only.  as of this morning i am able to wear a size 14, amazing!  i have not got a size 14 on by butt since i was 14 years old!  this was really the best thing i have ever done for myself.

When I started this whole process, I said to myself if I got down to anything under 200 lbs that I would be happy.  Well when I got on the scale yesterday I cried.  196.8, it is an amazing feeling.

1/2/07-Happy New Year to all!  Well I am finally moving again, no more constipation.  Hopefully never like that again!
    The scale is also moving again, as of this morning I am down 71.4 lbs since surgery on 9/18/06.

12/27-happy holidays to all!  Well, I had a bad month as far as weight loss.  i have had a major constipation problem causing the scale not to move much since what i am eating is not being processed correctly and eleviated from my body.  i am stuck between 210-213 for weeks now.  as of today 211.4 = 66.6 lbs down.  i am very happy with the loss I have already had, but need to see some more!
