4-20-07 I haven't updated in a while. I now weigh 156! I feel great!
12-11-06 weight today was 191!
12-02-06 I weigh 196 now! I need to get some updated pics on here! I love the energy that I have now. I exercise all of the time. I think that I am an addict! I get cranky if I can't exercise for some reason. Until later!
11-16-06 Weight today is 205! Getting there!
10-31-06 My weight today is 211.4! Wow I haven't been this weight in a long time. I feel so good! Five more pounds until the Century club!!
7-25-06 I had my surgery on June 12 06. As to date I have lost 46 lbs. The day I came home from the hospital I was 306!! Now I am 260. I can't wait for the day that I am under 200!! I hit a stalling point for about a week. I was so upset not to see the scales moving then finally yesterday I lost 3 lbs!! Many thanks to my husband for his suppport.
8-7-06 I am now down to 254. Losing slowly but still every little bit counts. I exercize to try and keep some of the loose skin at bay. I know my stomach will have excess skin. I had a c-section in 94 and was very obese. Oh well if I knew then what I know now I wouldn't have used the excuse I was eating for two. Anyway I am feeling wonderful. The best protrein drink that I have found is the little tubes from bariatriceating.com. It is the New Whey liquid protein in the tube just around 3 oz. The fruit punch is so good it has 25g protein 0 carbs and sugar. It is a little expensive but when you consider that we don't spend much on groceries for ourselves it is worth it. Anyway just over 8weeks out and feeling wonderful.
9-2-06 Just weighed. I weigh 238! That is 68lbs since June 12 06! I love to walk. It really helps with the weightloss. I haven't been 238 in a long time. Can't remember when. The 200lb mark is just around the corner. I would like to weigh 200 around thanksgiving. I am going to try my hardest. Thanks to all the members for all of their suggestions on vitamins and food.
I will update a photo later.

9-20-06 Just a quick update. I am now 229! 30lbs from wonderland. Had my 3 month checkup yesterday. Everything was fine. Ahead of schedule on the weightloss. I hope that it continues. My doc wants me at 168 by one year ann. I want to be 150. (June 12 07) I will keep working at it. I exercise everyday. Feeling more energetic. Can't wait to be normal again and not obese or overweight.
