One year anniversary!

Jun 25, 2010

Well, here I am one year out from surgery. I've lost a little over 100 pounds and I feel fantastic! With the exception of hernia surgery in January, I haven't had any problems. I've gotten a little off track recently but am working to get back on track and lose the remaining 20 pounds I need to lose. I still go to the gym and have actually developed some muscles. Life is good!

Continued success!

Oct 26, 2009

I have lost a total of 75 pounds in five months and I feel wonderful! I continue to go to the gym and do my workouts. I have much more energy now. No real problems. I just take it a day at a time.

Feeling good!

Sep 07, 2009

I have lost 62 pounds since the end of May and I am feeling better all the time! My husband and I have been working out at the gym, walking and are feeling healthier. I can now ride again on the back of our Harley Davidson motorcycle! I love that!

I survived!

Jul 04, 2009

Well, I made it through surgery with flying colors! I am actually doing pretty well so far. Of course there was a lot of fluid retention the first week but most of that has gone. I am losing weight  and was down 9 pounds at my first weigh in a week after surgery.  I am still dealing with air on my belly at different times and that can be very uncomfortable.  I have a full, sometimes bloated feeling most of the time. I am on a full liquid diet phase 2. Next step will be the pureed diet. Looking forward to that!

Ready to Rock!

Jun 19, 2009

Well, my surgery date is June 24th. Next Wednesday, not that far!  I'm a little nervous but am also getting excited! I've been doing well on my 30 day liquid protein diet and have lost 20 pounds. I am well below my target weight for surgery. I am looking forward to doing all the things I've been wanting to do after I have lost the weight. I miss going for rides with my husband on our Harley Davidson motorcycle. I want to fly and actually fit in the airplane seat and theater seats as well!
I went to the hospital today for my pre-op assessment. I just need to pack my bag for the hospital and then I'm ready to rock!
