3 Months

Nov 03, 2008

I had my three month check up. I am down 64lbs and 24 1/2 inches. Its funny cause one of the children i work with is 43 lbs and i go to pick him up and hes really heavy. I lost more than what he weights. I have been working with a personal trainer two times a week. I love it, its great. I started to pick on things i shouldn't be. so I'm nipping that in the butt before its gets worse. It s a bad habit that i don't want to come back. My whole life is changing. I am going to start working at the gym 3 nights a week. I'm doing very well in my masters. Things are great with my relationship. I couldn't ask for anything better. I am not tired any more. I feel great during the day. Before my surgery i could have slept all day. Now i cant even sleep in if i wanted to. as time goes on things are getting better and better. I would never change the decision i have made.

What can i say i am so ecstatic. I am 8 weeks out and down 51lbs. I was a 28 now I'm a 20. I cant begin to explain what i feel. I love getting out of bed in the morning and feeling great. I love to be able to get up the stairs with out losing my breath. The benefits are endless and its only going to get better. Everything is not always peachy though. Yes i get sick and yes i have no energy sometimes. But being healthy is so worth it. I go to the gym six days a week and i have a personal trainer 2 days a week. I last time i was in a 20 i was 20lbs lighter. So working out is deff helping out with the inches and helping a little saggy skin. When i was 347 i was getting very miserable and depressed. Now i get up everyday so happy to have another day to enjoy my blessing to be here.

Week 6

Sep 09, 2008

I havent post so i figure i would. I have lost 38lbs. I lost 36lbs in two weeks. However, i am finding it diffcult for me to lost now i have lost 2lbs in 4 weeks. I excersise 4 days a week. I do what i should so i dont know whats going on. I will hopfully start losing more. I have a cruise in a month and i would like to be down another 30lbs but that might be out of the question. Time will tell. I find i am getting impasient. Its getting frustrating. Im trying to hang in there. But i could say last time it took me 4 months to lose 38lbs so that makes me smile.

Day 5

Aug 06, 2008

Today is a good day. Im starting to feel more like myself. I could finally bend over but very slowly. I am getting all my fluids in but i hope im not drinkin to much at once. I started walking 3 times a day for 10 min (great idea from 2008newme). I did  it twice today i still have time to get my last in im going to make sure i do. My dog misses me cuddling with him and so does my boyfriend even more seeing i been sleeping on the couch cause it is better for me. I had cream of chicken soup today OMG it was like having lobster. hahaha. i also am breaking the habit of not going into the kitchen unless i need to hard seeing  it is the hang out place in everones house, but on top of that not opening the fridge how many of us would open the fridge 50 times a day even though it still has the same thing s in it and even more your not hungry.......anyways today is a good day.....closer to the new me.

Day 3

Aug 04, 2008

everything is going well.......i feel like i have water coming up 2 my eyes. But i keep on sipping. I feel good over all but i cant sleep at night so im trying not to take any cat naps during  the day. i have to learn to sit still. Once i feel better i do to many things. I push my self to hard and i know its bad cause it will take me longer to heal. Not feeling hungry!! at all!!!
