I just did a...CARTWHEEL! - OMG, so my husband and I were out in the yard acting goofy after he mowed.   I acted like I was going to do a flip and he says "go for it".  I tried a couple of times and was too s...

WoW! I'm doing lots of things! - Before I had surgery, I told myself I would keep up with this blog.  OMG, I'm finding myself doing things that I haven't done since I was a teenager, and I just run out of time dur...

My trip to the water park.. - So, this summer I felt good enough to take my boys to the water park.  I haven't been in public in a bathing suit in a few years, at least.  We went three times last week.  Well, o...

My 6 month appt. - So, I went in for my appt. today.  Weighed in at 195.   They said everything looked great.  Fuzz told me I should only lose 40 more lbs and I should be set.  40 more would put me a...

199!!!! - It has been a hella long time since I've seen the number 1 on my scales when *I* stood on it!  Sure it has taken me quite a while to get here.  I was stalled for almost a month!!  ...

It didn't happen. - I didn't hit that magic 199, but mother nature probably has a lot to do with it.   I'm still looking forward to getting there SOON.

Just a few things.. - Friday is my birthday and my 6 mo. "re-birth" day.   I've noticed a few things this week.  For starters, I've been RUNNING at the park, I mean I'm running and not because something...

It's been a while. - So today is Tuesday, 4/20.  I'm a little more than 4 months out and I'm down 72.2 lbs and weighing in around 203.  I'm comfortably wearing size 16 shorts and jeans.      I admit th...

My 3 month post op visit - Well, here we are.  I'm down to 214 from 276, that's a 62 lbs loss in 3 months!    I was afraid it wasn't going to be enough, but to my surprise, my surgeon and the psych. told me ...

Good bye 220's! - This morning I'm 219 !  That means I'm 20 lbs away from onderland (holy cow, haven't been there in forever!)  and 18 lbs away from weighing less than my husband (in the 13 years ...

Down 50.4 lbs! - Wow! So when I plugged my weight into the health tracker today, it showed that I've lost 50.4 lbs.  Feels great to say it, but I'll love the minute when *I* can tell that I've lost...

A few updates.. - Well, I had been stuck at the same weight for a week.  It was really frustrating!  I knew I was eating what i was supposed to and getting all of my liquids in, yet every day when i...

Adios 230's! - My weight this morning was 229.6.   I started out at 276 when I started this journey. I've came a long way in a little bit of time.  My clothes are getting too big, but I'm not co...

My first WOW moment! -   My BFF called and said his mom had some new jeans and shirts with the tags still on them and wanted to know if I could wear a 22.   Well, I wasn't for sure that I could,but I tho...

1 month post-op check up - So, I'm one month out today and I go see my surgeon and his team @ 10:45 this morning.    I'll let ya know how it goes when I get back.  Wish me luck! 

Whoa, where did that BITCH come from? - Sadly, I'm talking about myself!  When I got up this morning, all was fine.  My husband and I took our boys and niece to the movies and  we enjoyed ourselves.    About an hour late...
