Nov 01, 2008

 Thats 200 on the scale, its so close I can taste it!!!  I weighed my self this morning the scale is reading 203 woohoo...that magical number is just waiting for me, also a wow moment,  Had to take Katie up to her aunt's house lastnight in Corning, she was staying the night the night and then they are going to ithaca for a massage, anyways, we went to wally world to grab a few things.  Ray asked me if I wanted to buy my jeans that he was going to get me for my birthday,   grabbed the 18 wp, tried them, they were to BIG...they didn't have a 16 wp so I couldn't try them on, have to go up to my local one and try them on.    yippee

tried on jeans yesterday

Oct 07, 2008

Went shopping at wally world yesterday for a few things.  I wanted to also try on some jeans to see what size I was getting down to...I fit in to an 18 regular.....I couldn't beleive it!!!!!!  I havent been in 18 in say 20 years or more.  I didn't buy them because I don't want to waste the money..I bought the jeans I have now a month ago and they are to big for me now...but I use a belt.  I just hate to buy clothes and have to get rid of them in a few months...My mother did mention going to my aunt's church on Thurs morning, they have a clothing/thrift store they open 2x a month. she tells me they have lots of jeans,,,a 1.00 to fill a bag...I'm going to check that out instead.  I know I'm cheap...but Ray and I are going way the first weekend in november to the casino for free night they offered us.  I'm saving up for that instead....

2 months post op

Sep 30, 2008

I'm 2 months post op today.  I'm just short 2 lbs of losing 50 lbs in 2 months.  I'm happy with what i've accomplished so far,  The last 2 weeks i've been slacking on walking in the morning.  Been getting up and canning tomatoes, pears and spagetti sauce. Since I work 3-11 I have to get all of this done in the morning so I have it cleaned up by noon.  Now that its all done, I'm back walking, did 1 1/2 miles this am, felt great after! I'm only going to walk 4 days a week.  I was overdoing it for a while and my scales were not moving.  Lets see what happens now!   On a small wow moment, I had to alter alot of my clothes.  I refuse to buy anything new. All my uniforms for work I've had to take off 8 inches on the shirts, and 8-9 inches off the pants,(new clothing orders for uniforms go in on november)   Thank god I have a sewing machine!!!  I have a lot of nice long sleeve blouse that I hated to throw out, so this morning I altered them too. I love my RNY   

working hard!!!!

I'm getting there!!!


another wow

Sep 18, 2008

Yesterday afternoon, my youngest daughter Sam (samantha) 14 came home from school.  I was putting something in her room and saw her clean clothes on her desk, there was an new old navy shirt size xl sitting there, its a thin knit with a scoop neckline, so I figured what the heck and tried it on, DAMN it fit and it looked good,  I hollered down to her to come up the stairway and look at something, when she came up i said to her "hey check out this new blouse I have!"  her jaw dropped and said "Mom that is my shirt, you look great in it, and it fits you better than me"  I love it!!!! I told the hubby when the got home that I went shopping today  "in his daughter's closet!"  he just laughed, and told Sam that now she can borrow my new clothes when I get some,, she is excited about that!  I love my RNY woohoooooo

I think I broke my stall

Sep 17, 2008

Well I think I broke my stall, I've had a busy week and didn't get out to walk. I've upped my intake to close to 700 calories, averaging 60 protein and 10 fat, and about 40-50 carbs daily,  This morning the scale finally moved 3 lbs,  I'll take it.  even tho I haven't walked, i've been super busy every day and I haven't been able to sit down till I went to work, there I'm in a chair for 8 hours, (do get up once an hour and move around for a bit) 

I finally DUMPED!!

Sep 12, 2008

Well I dumped for the first time yesterday, and off all things to dump on, Chicken and Rice soup!!!  Ray and I went to our weekly Friday afternoon lunch (he gets an hour off work on friday's to cash his check and do what ever for an hour, so we do lunch every friday afternoon).  Well we went for chinese.  I had chicken and rice soup, there was chicken, rice and broth, thats it!!  I ate the chicken out of it, and had 2 small spoonfuls of rice.  I dumped on the rice big time. Mind you this is the first time i've dumped and  since surgery.  I've also decided that since I'm still struggling with getting all my food in, I'm going to cut back on walking daily...I've been walking 2 miles a day everyday including weekends, I'm going to cut down to mon,wed and fri walking only.  Maybe this way I can get some more pounds off. I"m going to break this stall some how!!

My Nutritional visit

Sep 10, 2008

I saw Colleen yesterday, I'm right on target with my weight, I've been at a stand still for a over a week, I talked to her about it, I've been eating 500 calories a day, with walking 2 miles a day, my net calories were averaging 300 a day,  She told me to up my calorie intake to 800 now.  Well can I tell ya, it hard to eat 800 calories, I'm working on it.  Everything else is going just smoothly for me,  I was worried because I having vomitted or dumped at all,  Told Colleen and she says not to worry about it.  I'm doing just fine and doing it right!!
