90 pounds lost in 5 months
Dec 12, 2009
Incredible 90 pounds lost in 5 months... I am telling you that this surgery was a life saving miracle. I have to admit I was skeptical at first about this I even thought about backing out. I was fearful of the unknown but I had to realize that if I didn't do something I would die... I praise God for his help for him leading me to the right surgeon and answering my prayer of healing and restoration. There are physical benefits which are associated with vanity like how good I am looking now but the mental emotional and health benefits are overly out weighing everything else. I am alive now, I am moving I am living I am healed in Jesus name,. No more injections no more high blood pressure pills no more C-pap machine. I can let go of my fear of marriage and wondering how will I ever be able to sleep next to my man with this big ugly thing on my face.. God is so great I am so in love with Jesus for real because He is the one that blessed me with this surgery. 2 months after I got approved for this new insurance I was approved for WLS. It took no time no hassle I just asked God if this is his will for my life then he has to do it and he did it and I am so happy .. I also told the Lord years when I realized he called me to preach around the world I told him that I couldn't do it as an obese person. I wouldn't feel comfortable preaching to people about God being a healer and a deliver and I was bound by food addiction, sickness and obesity .. He has freed me up form this weight and now I am scheduled to have a 3 night preaching revival in Long island NY the first week In January. January 3rd, 4Th & 5Th. I am anxious and excited ....... I can run on for the Lord now.. My people in NY have not seen me since I was 335 pounds and I am now 268 last time that I checked and I know I have went down. I have slowed down on the gym because I am on a 21 day LIVE FOOD & juice fast from Dec1-Dec 21st for the revival. It is a good thing that God called me on this fast because I had begun to eat more. I was eating taco bell , 2 supreme soft tacos at a time. I was able to eat a whole double cheeseburger from MC Donald's. I have not tried the sweets I am afraid but natural sugars from fruit don't make me dump .. after like 5 days on my fast my stomach shrunk again because I tried to eat a few chunks of watermelon and began to feel full I was like yes I am back... be careful after your 4Th month because food intake may increase but we have to stay in control mentally and emotionally.. I have decided that I will not lean to food for comfort any more but I will allow the Holy Spirit to be my comforter because that is why God sent Him here.. I am praying for you my OH family please continue to pray for me.. look me up on face book and we Can be face book friends also Amy Stephens...
