Hello, everybody! -  I hope everyone is doing well. I figured I'd give a more detailed update, especially since I just went to my doctor yesterday. I've lost 70 pounds so far, and I am feeling real...

It's been awhile! -  Hello, everyone! I haven't been updating because I feel like there isn't much for me to say. My weight loss is going alright-- it hits plateaus sometimes, but I'm steadily heading...

My Hospital Stay -  I thought that, since I have some spare time, I'd tell what my hospital experience was like. Mind you, it wasn't fun. It wasn't lovely. It wasn't painless. But I won't lie. This i...

1 Week Post-Op -  Hello! I'm writing in to report my weight loss for the first week post-op. Though I wish I would have weighed myself the day I got home, I just didn't have the strength.  So! O...

I'm home! -  I'm home from the hospital and feeling... so-so. The pain is kind of bad, but I have amazing family and friends to help me through it. I'll write a more detailed description of...

Oh my God... -  I cannot believe my surgery is tomorrow. I'm flipping out-- lots of tears and lots of nervousness! I'm ready for this to happen, but I'm terrified nonetheless, of course.  Wish...

Hello all! -  So, I got a surgery date! My surgery date is April 27th, 2010, and I'm getting Gastric Bypass. I'm excited, but totally freaked out! Wish me luck :)

It's Been Awhile! - Hello, all! I am just popping in to say hello. Quite a bit has happened since I updated last. First of all, I lost another pound with Weight Watchers. But, I'm most likely to st...

Two Pounds! -  I lost two pounds this week! It may not really seem like much, and it isn't, but that's a good thing. I want my weight loss to be slow and steady so that my BMI and such are still...

Tomorrowww... -  will mark my first week with Weight Watchers. I'm a bit nervous, but I've been sticking to my points, though I haven't really exercised this week. Weigh in tomorrow, then th...

Hello! - Words can't express how happy I am right now. I can't wait to start planning out my surgery and my surgery date. Talking to my mom's NP yesterday really reassured me that this is w...

Just really quick-- - Even though I know that hardly anybody reads this, I just wanted to say that for any of you guys going through Weight Watchers or are having trouble getting full, I tried chocolate...

SHE SAID YES! -  The Nurse Practitioner said that Dr. Jawad will absolutely perform Gastric Bypass on me! Especially because they already know my mother's family history--that'll make the process ...

Today was my first Weight Watchers meeting... - ...and I loved it! :) The other meeting attendees as well as the leader and receptionists were all awesome. I loved meeting so many other people in the same place that I am. I'm...

What an amazing day! -  I went for my physical with my doctor today, and it went great! Not only do I not have Diabetes (which I was worried about), but my doctor totally supports my decision to do gastr...

This is sort of random... - ...but I was thinking about this earlier. One big thing I'm excited for for after my surgery and weight loss is inventing my personal style and personality. I have always just had ...
