Another Why did I do it!

Jul 25, 2010

  Had a day and a half yesterday.  Part of it I won't go into.  Will have to work through that part in private.  

   We went to Lake Park and Valdosta Georgia yesterday.  Don wanted to get some shoes from SAS as well as going to the Black and Decker store, Lowes, and Target. After getting what was needed, we went to the Longhorn Steak House for a late lunch/early supper.  I should have known better than to get steak from there, cause the 2 times we have been there since WLS, I haven't been able to tolerate it.  But, seeing as it has been about 2 years since we were last there, I decide to try again. 
  Let's put it like this, I had to use a half of can of lysol spray in the bathroom at church last night.  I am still a little swollen this morning.
  I had a good time yesterday afternoon, but I don't think I will be ordering the steak there anymore.  May stick with salad. 
  I am down to 248.0 pounds as of this morning.  That's a 1.8 pound loss since Wednesday. Thank you Lord!!

It's been a great day!!!

Jul 24, 2010

  It has been a great day.  Have stayed on track for the last 3 days, eating wise, exercised.  Got back into reading my Bible, and got back into church.  Don and myself are still fussing, but it will get better. 

Walked 2 miles today and Wednesday.  It was HOT, but still did it.

Oh boy. This is not a good thang!

Jul 22, 2010

I know it has been a very long time since I have posted. I know now that I have to do this in order to keep myself in line. 

I have gained 16.8 pounds since I last posted.  As of yesterday, my weight is 249.8 pounds.  This is not a good thang!  It's time to get back with the program.  No more excuses.  It time to do it.  God has brought me this far.  He will not let me fail.  More later.

lost it again

Nov 12, 2008

I had an appointment back on the 23rd of last month. I am down to 233 pounds. A 194 pound total loss (about 164 since surgery). I am a little over a year out, and feeling better and better all the time. Weight loss has slowed down quite a bit, but that is to be expected. Started back to school. ANd it is kicking my butt. Gotta go, more later.

Mar 19, 2008

Not a lot to say. Been a good month so far. My son turns 9 next Wednesday. It's hard to believe he will be that old. Seems like only yesterday I was holding him in hospitial just after I had him. Where does the time go?

As of Monday (3/17/08) I am down to 295.2,per Weight Watchers. That is roughly 104 pounds since surgery (10/29/08) and 131.4 total loss. Not bad for 5 months out.

Gotta go feed the animals. More later.

about 86 pounds gone.

When I went to Weight Watchers on Monday (2/18/08) I have lost about 86 pounds since surgery,(10/29/07), 117 all total.
Just proof,that if you follow your new lifestyle like you ought too, you will lose weight. Sure,your going to have ups and downs, stalls and so forth, but thats only natural,and for a short time, but you will lose. Just look at it this way, when your going through a stall, you are still losing. Be it inches,but you are still losing. And not are we only losing weight and inches,but we are losing unhealthy habits, and our co morbities (sp). We are gaining life, a happier and healthlyand fuller life. And boy does it feel great!

Saw Dr. Hipp yesterday

Jan 24, 2008

HE is very pleased at the progress that has been mad. I'm down to 321 pounds. That's 73 pounds gone in 3 months. 105 pounds gone total.

If I could have done it,I would have done backflips and cartwheels in his office.

I have had several WOW moments over the last couple of weeks. I am no longer riding in the electiric scooters in the stores. Can walk the entir store (Wal-Mart,Target,Grocery store) . Can fit in a booth now at a resturant. Am 2 sizes samller,Can buy some of my clothes from Wal-Mart now.
Feels pretty good.

Ramblings

Jan 10, 2008

Had a great Christmas and a good New Years. But glad they are OVER!! I have started going to the gym as of last night. Am going to the Copeland Center down at the Villiage. Which is about 5 miles from the house. Am a little bit sore,not much. Will probaly step it up a knotch today. I actually enjoyed it last night.

Go back to the dr on the 23rd of this month. I think I've lost around 70-75 pounds since surgery. Will found out then. I wear some 4x clothes now. Which is 2 sizes smaller than I was before surgery. HAve already droped a bra size,and am about to go down another size in my undershorts. Can't get any better than this.

Dr. visit yesterday

Dec 13, 2007

Had appt with Dr. Hipp yesterday morning. I am down to 345.8. That is a 48.8 loss in 6 weeks. Pretty darn good if I do say so myself. Dr. Hipp and the staff are very pleased.
I am able to tri seafood,chicken and turkey now. And I am so glad. Get to chew real food.

Went to Sonny's yesterday on the way home,had about 3-4 oz of smoked turkey breast, about 2 bites of nasty green beans(tasted like a metal can) and about 3-4 bites of baked potato. Boy was I full. Stayed like that for the rest of the day. Can't wait to see how much I lose between now and when I go back to him on January 23rd.
