HUGE MILESTONE TODAY!!!!

Todays weight:  295.0
Total weight lost:  100 pounds... WHOOOHOOO
I am almost half way to my goal... I have 105 pounds left to go!!!

 We have been talking alot lately about making sure to measure yourself... I think this is a GREAT thing.

This is what I have done so far....
 
Waist - 63 down to a 50 = loss of 13"
Bust - 64 down to a 55 = loss of 9"
Upper Arm - 18.5 down to a 14 = loss of 4.5"
Thigh - 35 down to 29 = loss of 6"
Calf - 24 down to 20 = loss of 4"
Neck - 14.5 down to 14 = loss of .5"

So my total inches lost is...... 37"

I have gone from a 34 to a size 26/28.... LOSS of 4 sizes
I have gone from 395 pounds to 295.5 pounds... LOSS of 99.5 pounds 

I only have a half pound left to go till I hit the 100 pound loss mark... whooohoo   I am so excited about that.  I am still hoping to get to 250 by my birthday, I would love to be 280 by New Years (wishful thinking I think...LOL)

Happy Day,
ME

Well today I am officially 4 months post op.  I think I have done pretty well with my overall weightloss so far.  I am not too happy with my weightloss this month... only 11.5 pounds.  I am able to eat more foods, and I have been eatting crackers lately so I think that might be part of the problem.. darn carbs.

Here is my chart so far for my monthly weights... 

	Weight	Lost	% of Excess	% to Goal	GOAL = 190 (205)
Start	395.0				Excess = 150 (240)
7/31/2007	373.5	Surgery Date
8/31/2007	347.0	-48	20%	23%	1
9/30/2007	327.0	-68	28%	33%	2
10/31/2007	311.0	-84	35%	40%	3
11/30/2007	299.5	-95.5	39%	46%	4

I have lost a total of 95.5 pounds in 4 months, which I think is AWESOME!!!!

I will check in later

Thank goodness Turkey Day is OVER... LOL

A bunch is going on around here lately... LOL
Thanksgiving... DONE
Decorate for Christmas... DONE
Christmas Shopping ... Way Past DONE
Chuck even started wrapping presents, I dont really see the need in doing that yet, but it kept him occupied... LOL

I joined Curves last week.  I know I need to do some kind of excercise and this seems to fit with the time that I will have available.  I started going today... I am going to try and go everyday during the week, but already I have to miss friday... LOL... I know that I will go atleast 3 times a week.

I weighed in this morning (every morning actually... LOL) and today I am up to 300.0 again.... arrgghhh  I havent changed my ticker or anything since Tuesdays are my "official" weigh in day... LOL

I am hoping that I am down some, since I was at 300.0 last week, and so far I have lost atleast 1 pound every week.

I think I need to cut out the crackers, maybe the carbs are catching up with me... I am not sure, but who knows.   I am also constipated,  SUPRISE!!  SO maybe that is why I havent lost any weight this week... I have been just playing with the same pound all week long.  Kinda discouraging.

Not much else exciting going on.
Later

Happy Thanksgiving

Today I hit 299.5... whoooohoooooo!!!!
I am in the 2's...whooooohoooo

I made an awesome Sugar Free Pumpkin Cheesecake for dinner tonight.... YUMMMY  (recipie found on the splenda website).

Today we will be going to my Moms for dinner and I will make some great choices.

Have a great day

Hi everyone... I am just so excited.... yesterday I had my 3.5 month appt (suppose to be 4 months but heck... LOL)

My doctor is very pleased with my results so far and said that I am ahead of schedule, but didnt tell me what schedule was suppose to be (I asked... LOL)

My blood work was very good, I was low on my iron but I just had a D&C and Ablation so that will take care of the monthly anemia.

Beginning weight was 395 and I was down to 301.5 (by there scales... LOL) so I have lost a total of 93.5 pounds (21 on the preop diet).

I am so close to the 2 hundreds that I can taste it... I have no clue as to the last time I was in the 200's.  This morning I weighed  300.0.... so darn close... LOL

I do really need to get in a routine for my excercise and vitamins, I will admit that I havent been very faithful with either one of them and was expecting to get yelled at.

Everyone have a great day and be as healthy as you can.
HUGS

Today was my follow up appt with my surgeon... Today I am just over 3.5 months out down to 301.5 (officially on the Docs scale).. my scale said 301.0 this morning... gotta love their scale too.

They checked my bloodwork and it was great.  Everything was normal... WHOOOHOOO

My next appt is my 1 year check up.

I am so close to my New Years Goal that I am making it my Thanksgiving goal... LOL

Today I weighed in at 303.0... WOW... that is 92 pounds lost so far.. WHOOOHOOO

Before surgery I was in some very tight, didnt fit 32 size jeans... they mostly didnt fit, since I couldnt get them zipped 99% of the time.  
Today I am in a pair of 26 jeans... HOLY CRAP !!!!

I gotta run today... helping with the Big Thanksgiving Program at Daniel's School.

Have a great day.

HOLY CRAP BATMAN!!!

This morning I am down to 305.0..... that is 90 pounds gone forever.

I have been yo-yoing with the same weights for the past week or so so it is nice for it to finally go down.... whooohoo

Only 5.5 pounds till I am in Two-der Land... whooohooo

The ablation went good (last week)... I go for my follow up appt today.
I have a chiropractor appt this morning also... so that will be nice... LOL
Christmas shopping is done... just have to get a few gift certificates or cash put in a couple of envelopes... LOL

Have a great day... I know I will

Well I havent bloged in a while so here we go.

Nothing exciting is going on... I am 9.5 pounds away from hitting the 200's... whoooohoooo
That (200's) was my New Years Goal... but now I am going to make it my Thanksgiving Goal... LOL   I do believe I should be able to lose 10 pounds by Thanksgiving... that is almost 20 days away... we will see.

This week I go for my Endometrial Ablation (Tuesday) so that should be fun... NOT

I have got to remember to get my bloodwork done tomorrow. Remember... Remember... Remember... LOL   I do have a note on my purse so I hope I dont forget.

That is about it.    I worked this weekend so Chuck and Daniel went Christmas shopping... and I just finished mine up a minute ago online... LOL   so I really do think we are done.   I need to get a few things for stocking stuffers for Daniel but that is it and a quick trip to the Dollar Store for markers and stuff like that and I will be completely done.  That sure does feel good to be all done.

Have a great day
