been a long time since I updated so figure now is as good a time as any.  I am now under goal and been holding for about 4 months at a steady weight between 132 to 137.  I opened a new business called the Big Chic specializing in Chicken, Burgers, Seafood, Salads, etc, etc, etc.....   It is doing fantastic!!  At least now I dont have the need to eat up all the profit...  j/k     Anyway I am now considering doing some plastics although it isnt as bad as I thought it would be.  I am going to start investigating the procedure and if all goes well by the end of the year I will have that bikini body I always dreamed of having.   Life is good, God is good and I feel fantastic!!!  No problems to report it has all been great!

I think I should be done

Jan 11, 2009

well i have now surpassed my goal of 168 and am now at 157,  I am thinking I should be done.  I in some ways would like to see 140 to 145 but there again I am happy now with my weight.  I would like now to start checking into the plastics and see what I can have done there.  I don't feel bad at all about myself naked.  I could of course use some nip and tucks but we will see how that goes.  If I could have what I want most I think it would be a face lift.  I am still doing well with my eating.  Sometimes I splurge and eat something I shouldn't but it is so little and so far in between that I don't really count it.  There is so much healthy non fatty stuff out there that I do not have a craving for something I cant have.  Anyway I will write more latter but it has been a while so I thought I would catch up my blog.  My daughter is having me a grandson in the morning so I have defiantly gotta get some rest tonight.   Also I am still thankful for my lord leading my direction for me in this journey.   Please continue to pray for me.

what a wonderful day

Sep 17, 2008

I am feeling full of energy today!  It is so going to be a good day!  I believe that my son's team will win their football game today (or at least I am praying they do)  just feels right.  I am now at 166 and I was trying to remember if I ever weighed that in my life  haha   nahhhh   Anyway, I went to the Doctor last friday everything was good except my iron was still low so now I am taking a perscription iron tablet.  I still feel great so cant be to bad.  I am so thankful for how far I have come.  It is funny how people even look at me different and they notice me now...  how funny huh.   I mean I am sure I am the same me I was before.  Although my husband says I talk more now!  That is hard to believe that I could ever talk more.  Well I am just rambling on here.  Just wanted to share my thoughts.  God Bless


100 pounds today!

Aug 14, 2008

100 POUNDS  wow that is a lot of weight to shed in a few days less than 7 months!  I was so excited this morning that I almost turned a cartwheel!!!   Of course I didn't, I am smarter than that!   lol   I would have broken a leg or something for sure.   Just wanted to share my joy today with whom ever will listen.  Life is Good!  God is Good!

1/2 year down

Jul 28, 2008

Its been a half a year since my surgery....  6 months and down 94 lbs..... WOW!!!  How cool is that?!  It has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself.  I am "still" doing great, no problems, 1 time dumped but wasn't that bad, have felt better than I ever have in my life!  I wish everyone's experience with this surgery could be as great as mine has been.  I thank the good Lord for he is traveling with me during this journey.  I have great faith and prayed (still praying) for his help and guidance.   I went to Myrtle Beach this past week and OMG it was the best time I have had in...... well forever.  My son and I played in the waves for hours.  It was a blast.  I wasnt tired from the waves it was just fantastic.  I felt good, I looked good and I have to tell you I loved the feeling.

Update

Jun 12, 2008

Thought it was time to update my blog.   I am still doing great!  No problems thus far and hoping it will continue to stay that way.  I am feeling wonderful still and am now into a size 12 and 14.  I am happy right now if I never lose another pound.  I mean of course I hope I do but still I am happy.  I just made it through a week of bible school and I am the teacher for 0 to 3 year olds....   We had 12 babies in my room and it was quite the week.  I really love doing this each year and by the time the week is over I am thinking girl you have lost your mind.  Still I am ready again when the next year comes along.  This is my 8th year of working bible school in my church and I feel like God has blessed me for my service to him.  I hope I will be able to continue his work for many years to come.   Anyway just wanted everyone to know that Life is STILL good!!

3 month anniversary

Apr 17, 2008

today is my 3 month anniversary!!!  Every time I think I am not losing fast enough I remember that it has been a very short time since surgery.  I think I have done fantastic!!!  I have lost 57 lbs and went from a size 22 to a loose 16.  I am now off of my blood pressure meds and no longer snore.  I am so excited about everything that has taken place.  I am learning to eat so much healthier and loving that also.  Life is good.....  Life is real good......  I love this new world I am living in!


Had a visit with my Doctor today.

Apr 04, 2008

I am now 12 weeks post op and am down 54 pounds...  I feel like a new woman!  It is wonderful.  I had my check up today at Dr. Pricketts and everyone was so pleased with my progress and the fact that I have had zero problems.  I hope it stays this way Lord willing.  On the way home from the Doctor I passed a farmers market with the most beautiful flowers...  I stopped and bought 100 dollars worth of flowers  hahaha   yeah I had a great time there...  my husband said where did you get the money for the flowers and I told him grocery money.  I don't spend near what we did before in groceries!!!  I spent the rest of the day in my yards and they are looking beautiful I must say.  I love working in flower beds.  It makes me feel good when I can sit on my porch and look at all the pretty flowers all summer long.   Anyway just wanted to let everyone know how I am and that life is truly good!!
