hello all, I know that it has been a very long time since my last post so here we go! I truly miss my OH Family, the road has been a little rocky lately, not much has changed! I am still trying to figure out how to loose 60lbs to reach my goal. I recently started back working out again I had stopped! Know what is good I still cannot eat much, as a matter of a fact I prefer a snack over food, it dosen't matter what it is, I just don't like food I feel really stuffed from anything I eat unless I mentally make it a snack, LOL!!!!!!

I know it has been a while since my last post. Everything is going OK for me, I am still maintaining, no gain no loss. I know that the reason for my plateau is because I had not been exercising but I am now back in the gym doing what I should have never stop doing. I believe sometimes i get lax but that is out. Some people have started to say that I have changed but I think that I am just being me, before I placed everyone before me and now I place me first and that is what people don't understand. I can assure my fellow OH friends that I will post more and continue to exercise, I want to get down to 180 and that will take discipline, but guess what It will be achieved.

No I haven't disappeared! I am doing good went to see my surgeon the other day and he was impressed with my progress. I had plateaued for a few months and I know it is because I could not consume food. I do not know why but I could only, honestly eat chocolate, which is very strange because I never liked chocolate, but it was the only thing that would not make me sick. I am now doing much better and sugar free. Wonderful, I can't believe how quickly the weight loss starts back. Well, I am at work and it is very busy, update again later. Much Love, Raynise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am now down 90 lbs and feeling fine. I had an appointment about 2 1/2 weeks ago and the only problem is that I am Vitamin D deficient so now I am taking 50,000 units a week for 12 weeks and then 50,00 units a month for six. I have really been deside myself though I cannot stop shopping. It seems as though everytime I turn around my size is differnet. I had bought 22's now I am between 20 and 18. the 20's are loose, loose but that is cool I am still wearing everything. I even still wear my work shirts from before I had surgery. I used to always say that I wa fine before surgery but I really can say that I feel 110% better and I still have some work to do. Oh, and before I forget that only other problem that I have is when I sit for to long my butt starts to hurt, LOL, If I think I didn'y have any cushion before it is reallly gone now, more LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Went to the doctor on Thursday to discuss BC and was informed that I needed to have my HgA1c checked. Called on Friday for results and WOW a excellent " 6 " . Since my surgery I am down 63 lbs no longer take any Diabetes Meds and now my A1c is on point. I feel Great!

2 months out and feeling GREAT!!!!!!

I am down 63 lbs and in need of clothes. Because I have an already flat bottom all of my ppants are extra saggy in the rear. My co-worker told me a week ago that it looks like I had a really big budunkadunk and now its gone. Because I wear uniforms at work, I had to go out and purchase my own black pants ( more convienent than trying to wear plain clothes since my size is steadily changing) which it seems as if I am doing this often. I am not upset or complaining but it is very costly to continue and by pants. My shirts so far are fine because I prefer to wear big shirts anyhow. I think I will visit the clothing exchange and offer some of my too big clothes seeing that most of them are new anyway.  

Thats all for now will update later.

Just a little update. I am doing great No problems so far and I am not looking for any. I am now at 305 lbs. When I went in for my 3 week check up I was told that the biopsy of my liver showed that it was a little damaged. Probably from all the years of being obese. But I'm OK. My recent lab results came back normal which is a good thing. I received the results today 1/24/07. Well, I go see the surgeon again on Monday will update more then.

I had my follow-up with my PCP today and he has taken me off my diabetes medicines for the time being and I am also down 20 lbs since my Pre-Op with him.

Hello my family,

I came home from the hospital today. I am a little sore and tired but that's about it. I am on a liquid diet ( Apple, cranberry and Grape Juice, Protein Shakes, Clear Broth and Jello). My stay was not bad and my surgeon was able to successfully perform laproscopic. I just wanted to post an update. I am very tired. Will update later.

Hey All

Just an update to let everyone know that I have received my date.........Yipppeeeeeeeeeeee!

I am so excited. I went to my pre-op class on yesterday, thats when I visited the hospital and the nurse explained the machines that I would be connected to and what to expect during my hospital stay. I can't wait. On Monday I go see the surgeon for my Pre-Op with him and I will probably have to start a liquid diet (told I needed to do it 2 weeks before). I also have to do a Pre-Op with my PCP. Well until next time.......................Later!
