That 2 year mark is aproaching soon and my biggest goal is to be at 170. I know I can do it and if I dont I will keep striving to get there.  I havent been getting enough sleep because I work 2 jobs. I make sure that I use my CPAP machine faithfully.  My eating habits havent changed; there are a few things that I need to avoid such as POP!! I get that craving every now and then and chocolate too.  Other than that I been trying to get a lil excerise in but; its hard with working so much.  I have a new male friend in my life and he is ocuppi my time here and there.  I had to think today about my future goal and where I want to be in a couple years.  One of my goals this year is to get enrolled for dental school and become a Dental Hygenist !! I believe in that saying if you put your mind to it; you can do it.  Im under a look of presure and stress right now with the seperation of me and my husband. Me and one of my friends have planed a trip for next week  to go Memphis so; Im so looking forward to that. I've never been to Memphis, TN so Im very excited.  Im continuing to do everything that the Dr. G told me and I am maintaing my weight.  Pre-op was 296lbs and Now at 1 year 11 months Post-op 179lbs!  I've lost so many inches very proud of where I come from. I just keep looking forward cause there anit no looking back or going back. I will post a pic shortly,

Man how time flies by ... 1 year and 10 months post-op since Mar.30th.  My 2 year is coming up in one more month.  Where do I begin; well my weight first of all hasnt changed much. Im still losing inches and a few pounds here and there. My current weight is 175lb; my before weight was 296lbs which to this day I can not believe. The picture tell it all; and Im true happy now and thankful to be healthy.  My next goal is to get to 170lbs or 165 and maintain. I did start working out at the gym but I work alot so its hard finding the time to go. Oh I worked muscles that I have not in a long time but; it feels good to get in shape.  I forgot to post a pic for feb; I will be posting one for Mar and April soon. ... Just gotta take one!

Me... How I'm Feeling

Feb 15, 2009

Today is a day that I just felt like expressing my feelings.  I'm kinda happy but not completely happy at home.  So much has changed over the last year or so.  Since I have had my sugery and began to lose weight; my relationship has gone down hill with my husband.  I hate that things cant work out but Im so ready to move on with life so I can be happy.  I look back to when I was overweight and so unhappy. I really didnt go to many places or do anything.  My weight before surgery was 296lbs I would have never thought I'd ever be that big.  Now as of today I am weighing at 175; since last week I have lost 8 lbs. As of last month when I posted I was at 183lbs and on that up and down of 185.  I also made a goal that I wanted to be at 175 or 170. I guess my next goal is to get to 170.  I look and think ok what did I change within the last week that would cause me to lose.  I started using Slim fast as a meal replacment.  I stopped eating the hot sauage rolls at Q-trip... all that bread!   I drink pop sometimes but not all time; mainly water or tea.  I have always eaten baked chicken and eggs so theres my protein. I take my vitamins daily and as for exercise I havent gotten to the gym yet.  Besides the current job that I do has a little bit of walking involved. I think i will hit the gym today and see if I cant get a workout in.  I'm a little on the stressed side.  Yesterday was such depressing to me because I didnt get anything for valentines but a conversation with my soon to be ex husband discussing a divorce.  My mood today is like I feel like crying cause I have wasted to my years .  I have done so much and put up with so much. I know you cant change anyone but damn I thought if you talk about changing then it would happen.  Im so tired and feed up that my mind is made up and I dont care I just rather be single again.  I have this new guy that a met a week ago but not really sure where things will go.  He's already in love with me and I have some feeling for him as well but; im holden back cause I dont want  a relationship just yet.  I mean he is everything that I want and need in a man but i'm so scared . Im just gonna take my time and see what happens .. Im leave it on that note; will post again at end of the month.

1 yr / 8 months

Jan 30, 2009

woooww!  1 yr and 8 months; im almost to that 2 year mark.  Alot has changed in my weight loss journal and all has been for the better.  This was such a positive blessing and exprience to have gone thur.  When you have support of friends and family then nothing can go wrong.  I sit and think some times what I use to weigh and what I weigh now.  If I had not had surgery then where would I be. I'm happy with myself and where I am today!  I have made new goals for 2009... I want to loss like 10 or 15 more pounds. Im currently at 183lbs; and I fluctate between 183 and 185 which is cool. I need to really work out I think that would help me shed that extra. also I need to drink more water... I also have a goal to go back to school not sure what Im going to major in but; im collecting my thoughts. All i have to say is 2009 is the year for change and it will be the most blessful year ever... Will post pic soon!

Half way there to another year...man 2 years is aproaching fast.  it still seems like yesterday that I had surgery, Soooo much has changed in my life the past year. I am so happy and proud and most of all thankful; blessed that I am on the loser side.  I battled so long with my weight going up and down; that roller coast had to come to a stop because I was ready to get off. I am maintaining my weight now. I go from 182 to 180 every now and then; which Im not tripping.  I love me weight; my shape and I could not ask for more. One thing that I need to do is start working out and kinda tone, I dont have any issues with my skin but I feel that I need to tone a little.  I just took a pic today and I will post it soon so; be on the look out for it.  My clothing size is still medium shirts and 14 or 16 in pants. It really depends on what store I buy them from.
