Oh boy, I haven't posted in forever. As of this morning I weighed 148.2 lbs. That makes for a total weightloss of *71*lbs! WoooHooo.
People at the bagel place have noticed that I've lost weight, they have been commenting lately. Working there is good & bad because I usually have 1/2 or 3/4 of a bagel throughout the day, but I also get an egg with cheese or turkey with bacon and cheese on a plate at break time. Anyway, Its only about a bagel and a half a week, so I cant beat myself up too much about it.
I want to have "normal" eating habits. (But not necessarily normal *American* eating habits) So if I have part of a Bagel here and there or something along those lines, I have to learn how to put it in perspective.
Oh, and I found these great redy made tunafish and cracker sets at the dollar store. (its actually name brand, starkist I beleive). 9g protien in them and 1g in the crackers, and low calorie. They make a great snack, each one is about 1/4-1/3 of a cup so they are perfect pouched sized. You can find them in the grocery, I've had them before, but at a dollar a package I'm going for it! lol.
Anyway school starts up on the 28th. I wanted to be 140 by then, but I doubt it will happen. I'm losing slowly now.
Oh well. 148 is the lowest I have been since I was around 13, so I am not complaining. I'll get there.

So today I weigh 168 lbs. And I started my new job busting my ass at a bagel place. OMG my legs are killing me, but it is easier than it would have been if I hadn't lost 51lbs. In fact I doubt I could have been on my feet from 8 am- 4:45pm and clean the entire store afterwords if I had not lost it. It seems like it is going slow, about a pound a week or so, maybe a pound and a half, but I really can't complain.
I could do things to up my weight loss I think, like more protien, but it is really hard to get food in, so I just try to eat high protien stuff like chilli whenever I can. But I have to admit I am not that great at it. The carbs still call my name, so pizza (supreme thin crust) is something I eat but only a few bites. I pretty much eat only a few bites of everything. It is hard though, my head wants to eat eat eat!
I think I still want that full feeling that satisfied me so much when I had my normal stomach. It still sucks sometimes, and it is fine most of the other times. blah blah blah thats it.

Today I weigh 182lbs. If I suck in my stomach its actually pretty flat. lol. I would like to be 150 for September but we will see what happens. Head hunger sucks, I want Mexican food so bad. But I will have it, all in good time. I got an A and an A- in my first two summer session classes, so my GPA is now a 3.6. Everything is good I guess, so thats all for now.
Today
Jul 04, 2007
Today i weigh 190lbs. I am about 20lbs from where I was when the SO and I met. It is hard getting the food and protien in, most things make me sick, but over all I am happy becuase I haven't been having back problems so that alone is worth it. Anyway I guess thats all for now.

As of tonight I weigh about 197lbs. It seems to be comming off very slow, but I guess slow is better than nothing. What really sucks is that I can't keep any solid foods down, no protiens thats for sure. I have never vomited so much in my life. And the pain! It's not just uncomfortable, it really hurts! I can sort of see a difference, my boobs have lost weight for sure. I suppose that is all for now.
Had surgery, now the losing game begins
Jun 08, 2007
Well, as you can see from my pictures I am fat, super fat in fact. I think it takes a lot of courage to put pics like that of yourself up (if I do say so myself, lol).
I had my surgery on May 21,2007. I have lost 18-19 lbs as of June 8,2007. I have no side effects from the surgery other than losing weight. (No bad things like hernias ect.)
Anyway I hope to lose the bulk of my weight before Fall Semester so that I can go clothes shopping for school. Being 22 and huge isn't a lot of fun, as I am sure a lot of you know.
I am excited for the future and welcome everyone to my page and to talk, i would like to make friends on here and have great convos.
