Imagine my suprise when the size fours I grabbed were TOO BIG!  Amazing!  Grabbed the size 2 and hoped for the best!  They FIT!  Thank you Dr. MacDonald!

Wow...its been 10 months ALREADY!  Can't believe the changes my body has gone through!  Cant believe what my body will ALLOW me to do!  Was able...for the 1st time I can remember...to run 1.55 miles yesterday.  Did it in 23 minutes and burned 270 calories!  WOW!  Thank you everyone for your incredible support through this journey!

Wow! Wow! Wow!  Got up this am and stepped on the scales.  To my suprise  128!  WTF?  Haven't been 128 since grade school!  Yeah!  Below goal!

Well...its been 6 months and guess what....100 pounds gone forever!  I was 244 about 2-3 weeks prior to surgery...this morning I was 144...Yeah...yeah...yeah!

Three more pound until I reach my goal of 150 by Thanksgiving! Hope I make it!  Went to a social event Saturday night (see pics) and for the first time in a long time I didn't feel ugly!  I still want to lose 25 pounds or so but...I'm getting there!

Well I am 5 months out and certainly am way ahead of where I thought I would be!  What a wonderful feeling...I has to buy size 9/10 skirts the other day...ooh better get them out of the trunk...anyway  it felt great.  I am actually wearing my beautiful daughters jeans...except she's 5 inches taller than me.  However, the down side...i still hurt...a lot.  There are days when my stomach hurts so bad I feel like I cant even sit at my desk.  Yes, I have ckhd with mu surgeon...the only thing I can figure is it's my ulcer!  I NEVER overeat...that's what everyone wants to blame stomach pain on....oh well, just a check in...haven't done it in a while!   Peace.

I can't believe that just three and a half months ago I weighed 244 pounds!  That is what I weighed the week before surgery.   That means 75lbs in less than 4 months!  Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.  I remember regretting the surgery so badly right after I had it...glad I wasn't able to undo it!  Dr. Mac sd to expect the loss to begin slowing some at this point...no way!  I will hit my goal!

Got on the scales this am...2 pounds up!  How the hell do you gain 2 pounds in two days when you haven't friggin eaten two pounds worth of food?  Yeah, Yeah I know water and all that CRAP!  Oh well, such is life!  Also...a confession...haven't been back to gym since cruise.  Next Monday, I promise!

Wow, I woke up this morning after a pretty crappy weekend to step on the scale totally expecting to have maybe actually gained a pound and there it was...175!  This is working.  I am down 69 pounds from my presurgical visit and 64 pounds from my surgery date.  Wow.  Surgery was less than three months ago.  I may be at goal by Christmas.  What a wonderful present that would be.

Dang this sucks!   2 months out and a TWO WEEK stall.  Unfreakinbelievable!  Was just messaging wih someone that said she went back to protien first...going to give it a try!  Wish me luck!
