All this exercise is wonderful but I need to really intake more food. They reminded me I was not a big person. However, I replied with, I was bigger enough to get here for a RNY.

Hello to all!!!!! Well, even though I do not have weight loss to report, I did lose inches. If I could exercise anyone can. My life has changed so much. I used to sit around and smoke all day. Now I am looking to exerise every chance I can. I feel lighter on my feet. I ran to the car in the rain. I could cross my legs with comfort. This is my new life and I am so glad for my RNY.

Good Evening! I have gone to the extreme with exercising. I am exhausted. I did 30 min of cardio and 40 min of weights. Everything on this body hurts. In addition, to my body aches I did not lose this week. My weight loss has been such a struggle.The weight just doesn't fall off me. However, I have no choice other then to keep on trying. The halter top is still a dream (LOL) Here I look back a few months ago ,I was sitting around smoking cigarettes and drinking Dunkin Donuts coffee all day and eating carbs at night. Now my life is so different. One thing I could tell you I could still drink Dunkin Donuts coffee. (YUMMY) . Tip of the day) Never say never. If you want something bad enough you will get there. The road may bumpy but you will. Thanks so much for all your emails and reading. Have a great night.

Good Evening! Big News. I was invited to a seminar to be a guest speaker to the new people interested in gastric bypass. This is right up my alley. Of course, I had to make this exciting. I am only 10 weeks out. So I went in with this big coat of mine(it was once my favorite). I introduced myself and told them how tight my coat once was.Now it is huge on me. Then I took the coat off and told my story. There were also other guest speakers with huge success stories. I hope to be just like them. This is such a great place for sharing our thoughts. We will have good and bad days. The scale will move down and somedays slightly up. We are all in this together. I am very grateful for all the support and motivation. I always thought if could motivate even one person here I would be so happy. From what I heard I have. Thank you. Tip of the day:) from my brothers fortune cookie -success is a journey not a destination. Have a wonderful day and thanks for reading.

Good Evening! I just posted a photo of the silver sandals along with a Kathy Van Zeeland bag. I had requests of a photo of my dog. His name is Niko and is a 4 year purebreed Shih Tzu. I do not know how to put his photo on the 2nd page and my famiy on the first page. Eventually I will figure it out. Big news here I lost 2lb since yesterday. I have been exercising a lot. I even thought of arm curls with the shampoo bottle in the shower. (LOL) I hope you are all having a great weekend. Thanks for reading and will update tomorrow. Tip of the day: YOU ARE NEVER DONE LOSING OR GAINING. The scale could go either way. Do the right thing for yourself:)))))

Good Evening to all.Another rainy Friday here in NY. I have to share how touched I am of all the support and compliments you all give to me. Thanks so much. I had a lot of requests asking about my silver sandals and the restaurant card. I promise to post a photo of my sandals for you all to see. A dear friend from OH gave me this website info about restaurant card www.obesityhelp.com/magazine/RestaurantCard.html
Or you can go to the search box and put restaurant card. I try my best to email you all the same day. However, my fan club is growing and the emails are coming like crazy. Each and every one of you are important. I will do my best. I did not realize that I am that amusing. (LOL) unless you are all bored. Tip of the day: I drank all my fluids, cardio for 30 min and ate well. I hope you all did too. I am hoping for a serious weight loss this weekend. Still at 33lb in 10 weeks come on scale go down. I am such a slow loser. I think if I was stuck on an island with my silver sandals, and the resturant card I would be the slowest loser. Good night to all and thanks for reading.

Good Evening to all! I hope you all had a better day then I did. I did not make to the gym and I really don't have a reason other then I was lazy. I will always be honest.The good part of my day was Dunkin Donuts gave free ice coffee out today.The line was out the door like I was at a concert. Well, I have a few parties this weekend and I am please to annouce I won't have to worry about dietng on Monday (LOL). Been there done that. Hopefully my surgery tool last forever. Tip of the day:I had Jerky Caribbean Shrimp tonight--it was sooooooooo hot I was sweating and it made so thristy.Not a good choice. Well, I should do what I teach and preach. So tomorrow rest assure I will be at the gym. This tool is a gift. One of my OH friends informed me about a restraunt card for big food chains that will honor a kids meal for bari patients. Thank you very much. Have a great night :)

Hello to all. Well, today was WEIGH DAY. I lost a total of 8lb for the month. The surgeons office was pleased of course, I am always hoping for more. I wore very light clothing and my new silver sandals.The stores where I live are selling out of silver shoes like crazy. Some lady in the parking lot offered money to purchase them right off my feet. I guess she really wanted to take a walk in my shoes (LOL). I declined of course. So my total weight loss for 10 weeks------33lb since surgery. I expected more but it is what it is. So I will just keep on going strong with exercise, water and eating right. The best advice which I think we will all agree; Losing weight is the best feeling no one could buy or give you. Have a great night:)
