I am very bad about updating my profile. I come to oh daily but mostely to read on how everyone is doing. I am now 6 months out and I weigh 178lbs. I am 130 lbs. lighter and it feels great!! I can wear a size 12 Levi's jeans. I always have hated the was levi's fit me now I just bought my 1st pair a week ago and love them. I hated them before i suppose because I was fat. I love to clothes shop now I want to buy everything. The bad thing is I am not made of money so I cannot buy everything I want. Also I hope to go down a few more sizes so I do not want to buy to much. I am suprisingly not having a problem yet with extra stretched out skin. I have some on my boobs and some under my upper arms but thats all. I figured It would really hang on my lower belly but not so far. I am so proud of my self!! I have never been able to say that before about myself. I do not drink protein drinks anymore. I know thats bad but I just cannot take them anymore very nasty!! I hope to not have any problems from that. I am not much of a meat eater either so I have a hard time getting much protein. Meat doesn't agree with me it usually comes back up.I have this craving for rice and tomatoes for some reason. I have been eating that alot.Lots of carbs but my nut said not to count carbs. before anyone yells at me for that. I will try to post more often. Hopefully always with positive results.

Well since I have been released from the hospital I have had a few checkups. The deremy said I am healing wonderfully. He said it could take a few months for the rash to completely go away and for the skin to stop peeling. I also saw the surgeon today. I am doing well there to! My labs were great. The best lab results I have had since I was diagnosed with Lupus. I did have a low b-12 for the 1st time. A shot a month will help with that. While I had been sick I had lost no weight but now all of the sudden I am loosing again. I was 240 3 wks. ago and today I was 227 yeah!!! My husband weighs 220 and he wants to start dieting when I reach his weight. He thinks he can beat me to 200. I told him not to hold his breath I have the tool to lose! So I am getting excited that I am getting back on track with my weightloss again. I may even feel like exercising soon which definitly help me lose faster.
