I can't believe I have come this far.  Todate I have lost 101 lbs.  I still struggle with self image and wondering if I should have lost more and if I tried hard enough.  Went to the dr yesterday and she was very excited and pleased with me weight loss and told me I was where I should be and don't worry about what the tv and the world thinks the prefect body is.  At 45 years old, 5'1" and 143 lbs - I think I look good and so does my hubsand so who else should matter..  May God bless everyone on this same journey..

I have five more weeks to my one year anniversity.   It has not been an easy road...alot of heartache, crying, problems in my marriage and low self esteem...  I realized and lot of stuff in my life I blamed on being over weight was still there after I lost weight.......  GOD has blessed me and if it is his will .... I will reach my goal of 100lbs my December.    I have lost 92lb since Dec 1st.  I am a new person - inside and out.  Gastric-bypass was the best thing I have ever done for my self.......  Pray for me the next couple of weeks as I reach the one year mark.

I have now been in a one month stall and it is working on my mind.  I am more depressed now then before I had my surgery.  I am five months out and lost 59lb between Dec 1 and April 1.....  the month of April I lost a total of 1/2 lb.  I chart everything I eat and exercise atleast four days a week (two days of  weights and walking and two days of cardo class).  I don't know what I am doing wrong and why me..........  I have fought being overweight all my life and I really believed and prayed this would be the answer to my prayers.........  I got in all of my water each day and my protein is always over 60...  It has been a really hard month for me and my family.............

I am one week out from surgery.  So far so good.  Some pain and the gas pains can almost take your breath away - but other than that - everything is going good.  I am struggling to get in enough protein each day - I know I will just need to try harder......

I have my all day seminar on Nov 5th.  This will be my last meeting with the surgeon.  My last weigh in will be Nov 10th.  If everything goes as planned I will be scheduled for surgery on Dec 1st.  It is time for alot of prayer.......
