It's been a long time....

Jul 27, 2010

It's been so long since I posted anything.  Sorry for that.  :(  I have had a lot going on.  First of all last year my hubby got laid off for a while.  Now we have a brand new baby!!  :))  He is the sweetest thing in the world besides his brother.  :)) 

Thomas Wyatt Potter~~May 13, 2010~~6lbs 15 oz.~~ 19 1/2 inches long.


I lost weight while I was pregnant with him.  I weigh less now than I did when I first got preg.  I was so worried that I would gain too much weight and not be able to get it back off.  I am however having a little trouble with eating.  Because I want to continue to eat now like I did then.  I am scared that it is going to catch up with me soon.  :( 

Well I will post again later.....hopefully it will not take me as long as it did this time.  :))

February....

Feb 22, 2009

Ok, so I know I haven't been posting lately.  I haven't been having too much luck with my weight loss.  I am now at 268, so for the past 2 months I haven't lost but 9 lbs.  I know I should be proud of the 110 lbs that I have lost but I want to loose at least 90 more.  That would make me feel good.  The only way I am going to be able to do that is to buckle down and stop eating things I know I shouldn't.  :0)  It's harder than I thought it would be.  Hope everyone is doing great!!  :0)

Failure??!!

Jan 22, 2009

Ok, so does it count as failure when you have lost 105 pounds....73 of which has been in the past 4 months?  I am just having a bad day thinking...if I fail everyone will know...because so many people know that I had surgery and they are wanting me to fail!!  I just don't know what to do!!!!  I keep going up and down 3 to 4 pounds and it's been like that for the past few weeks.  I am just having a pity me day!!  UGH!!

100 pounds gone!! WOOHOO!!

Dec 29, 2008

I can finally say that I have lost 100 pounds!!  I stepped on the scale this morning and to my surprise.....I weigh 276.  I know, it's still a lot but I have come so far.  Everyone notices that I have lost weight now.  Some people even think that I am my sister.  Which makes me feel really good because I think my sister looks dang good!!  LOL  Well just wanted to post about that.  Nothing else new going on.  :0)

great weekend!!

Dec 15, 2008




Saturday me and my son went on a little trip all by ourselves!!  We went to see Bolt and went shopping. (Spent WAY too much money!!)  Then we went to watch Four Christmases....bad idea to let a 5 year old that still believes in Santa to watch because they told a kid on the movie that his dad was Santa...I was horrified!!  Of course, a kid in his class had told him that his parents were Santa and he asked me about it and all I said was "If you don't believe, you don't receive!"  And I told him that I still believe in Santa because I want stuff.  It's kinda weird but I do still want to believe in him!!  :0)  Ok, I got totally off the subject...LOL  Anyway, after we got finished and were on our way home he wanted to go to sleep in the car and before he did he said....Moma, Can we do this again tomorrow?  It was so sweet...I wish we could do that all the time but my checkbook can't handle it.  He pretty much got everything that he asked for and he LOVED it!!

Well here is one more picture that I wanted to let everyone see....  :)

The picture on the left is Dec. 07 and the pic on the right is Dec. 08!!
 


loosing again....

Dec 01, 2008

Today, once again I got on the scale thinking that it was going to be the same but....guess what?  It was 5.1 lbs lower!!!  I am so glad!!  YAAY!!  :0)  hehe  I feel better.  I thought that I was done loosing.  I felt like a failure but now I see that it was just a stall because I lost almost 50 lbs in less than 2 months!!

Well I hope everyone has a good day!! 

Thanksgiving....

Nov 30, 2008

So Thanksgiving went really good.  I didn't over do anything.  Thank goodness....of course my body won't let me overeat now or either I know what will happen if I do.  LOL  Things went great though...We had regular Thanksgiving on Thursday with my mom's family and then today we had Thanksgiving again for my hubby to be here.  He didn't get home until Saturday morning.  Next weekend we are having Christmas because he won't be here for that either.  We have a very big month planned for December.  Of course, my birthday is that month so it is just awesome!!  We are going to a Christmas light show the day before my birthday...I just know it is going to be awesome.

Still haven't lost anymore weight but I can tell in my face that I have lost inches and in other places.  It is just frustrating that I haven't lost pounds.  Ya know? 

Me and my husband got in kind of a fight last night because he told me that I have no neck.  I think he was just playing but it just hurt...considering the way that I feel about myself anyway.  I think he realizes that now.  He was just repeating what my mom had said earlier about when I was a baby.....I weighed 10 lbs 11 oz and I didn't have a visible neck then either.  haha  It's all ok now.  Hopefully soon you will be able to see more of my neck and I won't have that problem anymore!!  haha  It does look better than it did 3 months ago.  :0)

Well I hope everyone has a great week!!  :0)


Uh Oh!!

Nov 16, 2008

Ok....so I confess....I have been drinking Fanta Strawberries for the past few days and I have gained 3 pounds!!  I have got to stop....it's like an addiction.  I just have to have them!!  UGH!!  My thoughts of failure are returning and it's only my own fault....no one else's.  I am starting over today....no more sodas!!  It's gonna be hard but....I have to do it.  I should have never had the first one and I would continue to think that it would hurt me.  Oh well, we live and we learn...right?


Friends....

Nov 09, 2008

You know, I didn't realize that so many things touch other people's lives even when you don't know that they are watching you or reading.  :0) 

I got an email today from one of my friends, we had a falling out a few months ago, so it was a shock to get it.  But it made me feel really good.  We both said things that we shouldn't have, like everyone does.  But I am glad that there are people out there that I don't even know are reading things that will email or call or whatever and tell me not to give up on what I have accomplished so far.  Even though I want to so badly.

Anyway enough about that....yesterday when I went to Mom's she told me that I was not her baby anymore because her baby wasn't skinny....LOL Now, believe me I am far from being skinny but then I said hello to dad and he said hello skinny.  WHAT!!  My dad has never said anything like that to me....partly because I am a FAT pig but it made me feel better than I have been feeling.  :0) 

I'm sure that was all very interesting but thanks for reading!!  :0)  hehe

FAT!!

Nov 08, 2008

Today is not a very good day.....I feel like a failure.  Although the scale hasn't moved in either direction I feel like my face is bigger than ever!!!  I want to eat everything in sight but I know that I can't.  Not only because I don't need to but because I know that it will hurt to do so.  I have no friends.  The only friend I have is my sister and she called a few hours ago to tell me that she isn't coming over like she said but rather going to someone else's house.  I feel like I have no one!!  My husband is gone on his job for the next month.  I have so many family problems.  I am being lied to by people that aren't supposed to lie to me.  I am just a failure!!!!!!
