yup, i met a great man, who also is a bariatric patient of Dr. Rohrsheibs.
I'm so happy right now! and I cant even begin to express how great I feel inside and out! 
I'm crossing my legs !! omg, its been forever since I've done that!
I ran the other night with a dog on a leash!  haha
I've climbed towers, I've danced all night in the clubs, I even go shopping for 4 & 6 hours at a time! I went to a concert and stood outside for 6 hours before the show, then inside stood the whole show and my back, feet and legs didnt hurt once! hahaha
man, it just gets better and better. 


  DANCE ALL NIGHT If ya have too! hahaha

I cant believe this feeling of accomplishment! It feels so good to be in control for once in my life.   There is nothing more enjoyable than sitting down to eat with others and  ordering cottage cheese only  or toast or salad and be satisfied.  I remember the days that I would look at a restaraunt menu like it was a cash withdrawl from a rich mans bank... "hmmm how much do I want... and definately the zucchini fried and ooooo gotta get the mushrooms too cuz they're so good"... that was just the beginning of it!!
no more.. no more of that.. I dont even think twice about what I want when I look at the menu... "oh, I'll have some cottage cheese and how about some wheat toast"  or "I'll have the childrens meal, hold the fries, give me jello please".. my gosh its great!!

As far as my energy level?? OFF THE ROOF BABY!
I aint kiddin ya, I cant sit still.  Sittin here typing this out, I've gotten out of my seat three times already to do a few things. haha
This weekend, I've made it my goal to climb a 300 ft up in the air tower out at a national forest.   I'm really hyped to do it!  I've never in my life seen the view from this place. I would take the kids and they would walk up it but I never tried.  I knew that I couldnt, i was too fat, too out of shape and too unmotivated to try.  So this weekend.. you better believe it cuz I'm taking the camera with me to prove it too ya'll

LIFE IT GOOD and EVEN BETTER WHEN YA TRY LIVING IT! 
Go for the gold people.... its never too late to be the best you can be!

much love,
Misty

Ok, I started off at a whopping 429.1 lbs in April.  Surgery went very well and was released in 4 days.  Eating was an exciting thing for me. a 4 oz cup of broth would fill me up!! getting down the protein shakes was an issue but, I found a Premium Whey product at Walmart that really did me good. I mized it with skim milk and it was pretty good.

I'm 4 months post op and have lost 82 lbs!!
I joined curves 6 weeks post op and doing very well!!
I lost a bit of hair my 3rd month, so I stepped up on my proteins.  EVERYTHING is going great!  I"M SO HAPPY! and, I've went down 3 sizes!!
from a 5 and 6 X to 2x :)
