100 Pounds Gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aug 17, 2009

Hello all,Its been a while since I posted. I am now down 102 lbs. Its taking me a long time but I have done it. I am going to  start settingl little goals now to help me work on my main weight goal. My next goal is to loose 8 lbs by the end of the month. I wear a 18/20 now. I have never wore this size since I have been an adult. I feel s happy that I am starting to feel better about myself. I never realized how much my weight played into my feelings and the decisions that I have made until I lost some major weight. I think I am going to start and work on  my sprirt now. I think it needs a  lot of work. I will try and post soon.
Peace and Blessings

Under 300Lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oct 10, 2008

Hello all, Just a brief update. Its been a month since I posted. I just wanted everyone to know that I have reached the Under 300lbs markI have been sooo happy since I reached this point. I wish I could have lost faster but I tell myself that this is as fast as my body wants me to loose and there are some people that the operation does not work for. I thank GOD that I feel better and look better. I think I even have my confidence in myself. I now can wear a size 22/24 from 30/32. I have not been this size in a long time. This operation has made such a difference in my life. I really throught that it was  not going to work for me. Be Blessed all. I will post pictures soon.

ITS GETTING BETTER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jul 08, 2008

Hi, everyone. Im doing better. My stomach has not been hurting since Ive been taking the acid medication. Im able to eat a little bit  of food now. Im not eating much, but Im just thankful that Im eating at all. Im now trying to work on getting my protien and my vitamins in  now. Im still adjusted to getting in everything that I need inorder to be sucessful with this process. I now weigh 322. Im losing weight  but I know that I need to eat more and get that protien in before it stops. Things are looking up.

Things Dont Seem To Be Getting Better

Jun 23, 2008

Hello all, I have not posted in a while because, I have not been feeling good. I was admitted over the weekend back to GW because of the bad feeling I was having in my stomach. The doctor said that my bloodwork was fine and I should have been taking the prolosec medication that gave me for my stomach. I explained that I was not taking it because it said take with food and Im still not eating. I take a bit here and there but its not enough to call myself eating. Every time that I eat, the food tasts nasty. When I take a couple of bits, I feel like I need to . When I stop eating the feeling goes away. That is why I dont eat. I knew that my tasts my change but I didnt think that it would be like this. The doctor also said that I may have a ulcer and I need to get a upper GI to check. He  finally told me that what I was going through was typical for a lot of post-ops but it really didnt make me feel better because Im tired of my stomach hurting all the time. It hurts so much some time that I cant get out of the bed . I just hope that this will pass and I will get better. The doctor did give me some medication to treat an ulcer. I will be taking all medications and vitiams now. I going to try the protien shakes again because he said that I needed it but they tasts bad too. If anyone can give me some ideas about what other things I can take for protien instead of the shakes right now, I would appreciate it.


Still Trying to Make IT

Jun 11, 2008

Hello all, Its been a while since my last post. Im still having complications with eating. I just dont want anything. Its hard to make myself eat.  I have discovered that I cant drink the protien shakes anymore. It does not taste good at all. I also cant drink cold water or eat bread. This is harder than I thought it would be. Im still sleepy all the time. I went to the doctors,yesterday and she said that this is normal for a lot of people. I know that she means well but that didnt make me feel any better. Im so frustrated. I have lost 30 lbs since the surgery. I dont know how since Im not really eating. The doctor says that I eating enough. If I wasnt , I would not have lost any weight and I could have gained. I tried to explain again that Im not eating but she is not getting it.
