Dream Come true...

Jan 12, 2011

The ultimate reason for my WLS, was so that my husband and I could have a baby.
Besides:
-feeling great
-loving life
-husband losing interest in me
-finding a new love

I am so happy with my choice to have this surgery.
And yesterday I found out......
I'M FINALLY PREGNANT!!!!

After all the years of trying with my ex-husband, there was a 'reason' it
didn't work. Now my love and I are baking a baby in my belly!!!!!

1 year 10 days....

Jun 18, 2010

I just had my one year follow up. I'm doing just great! In one year I have lost 153lbs! Went from a 26w/28w to a juniors 13! The ONLY issue I have had since my surgery was my husband losing interest in me. Call of Duty MW2 became more important I guess, so I moved on! I met a great guy who is also health conscious, so we encourage each other! 

I FINALLY started an exercise routine. I workout now 5 days a week, weights 2 days, and power walking with a jogging home stretch. I really suck at jogging! My boobs and skin bouncing around do not allow me much fluidity! lol But I am working on it.

My physician is already discussing plastics with me. Documenting my "skin issues", I haven't really had any, but I do have some squishiness! lol I say, insurance or not, I am treating myself to body modification for my 30Th birthday! IN 2 1/2 yrs!

SO that's all I can thing of! Have a great summer everyone!!!

3 months 20 days

Sep 29, 2009

I feel fan-freakin-tastic! I got a whole new wardrobe from a friend who had killer clothes in so many sizes. I am the same weight I was in High-school! I have love about 95lbs!!!! Love it love it love it! So much has changed. I can cross my legs! Yowza, thats one of my favorite new things. I feel so.... bendy!

I haven't really noticed a difference until I compare photos! it's dractically amazing. I still feel like I have the same body shape, but smaller... if that makes any sence.

I'm so happy I made the choice to have the surgery.

333 to 238!!

5 days out...

Jun 13, 2009

And I have lost 11lbs of water weight, gained in the hospital from 3 days of IV fluids ,and 1lbs of my own weight (based on 2 different scales, but from the time I got home until today there is a 12lbs difference)! It's going VERY smoothly. I feel great! Only pain I have is when I burp..... ugh horrible! I can't wait for the steri-strips to come off the incisions.

I take my vitamins well. I had to think of a better way than just chewing them.... NASTY! I crush them up, mix the mult, vit C, B-complex syrup, and calcium goo in to some isopure. Takes me a few swallows but they go down pretty easy.

I did run into my first food challenge at a friends last night...... She was making finger foods for everyone: taquitos, soft pretzel bites, pizza won-tons (a montage of finger food from the Schwan man).... OMG they smelled SOOO good. Like I just wanted to chew some up, suck the juice out of it, then spit it out! But it wasn't because I was hungry, just because the idea and look and smell of those pizza won-tons painted an image of an enjoyable experience in my head if I were to consume them. But I got over it. I just said to myself, I can taste them later, if I even really wanted to.

Until I find something interesting to type......
