Wow, I have been gone for along time. How are all my skinny mini's. I've been doing okay, I guess. I've lost 92lbs. so far. I'm 8 months out. I need to exercise more and use my tools better. Well it's almost 2am and I have a busy morning, catch ya later family. 

OK I'm back again. Thus far this has been a weird journey, although I've been doing good with weight loss I'm just not to happy yet. I know this is a new life journey, however I miss the old me. Not the over weight me, everything else. Food is such an important part of everyone's life so I feel excluded most of the time. Thanksgiving and Xmas in my family( extended) is all about the food and drinking, so it's kinda sad for me this year.  I love cooking for my family and I love watching them eat. However, I dread eating, I don't enjoy food at all, even if it looks good on my very small plate, it taste bland to me. I've become obsessed wth watching cooking and food channels. I don't have an appetite most of the time. Ok with that out of the way I went shopping for a few things over the weekend. Now post wls I was about an 28/32 pants and 4x/5x or 26/28 shirt, I wear a very loose 24 pants and a 18/22 shirt. So that was a great feeling. And the look on my husband face was priceless. He hasn't seen me dressed up in a long time. My girls were so happy for me too.

I know, I know; it's been a long time. Ok, hear we go. I'm 11 weeks out  and down about 58 lbs. Oh no my battery on my laptop is about to die. I'll finish later. Bye. 

I don't understand why? I miss food so much. Food has been such a big part of my life. I realize now, my social life was surrounded by food. I really don't enjoy going out anymore. I feel so left out when other people eat. Will this pass or is this what I signed up for? 

I'm in so much pain. I can't  even walk without help. I know I'm not getting the nourishment that I need. I have either a gas bubble or some kind of swollen lump above my biggest incision site under my right breast. I feel so sick all of the time, I can't stop crying.. My pain meds only put me to sleep and make me sick when I wake up. Tried Gas X, no improvement. I haven't pooped yet, barely passing gas. I can't sleep, my back hurts because I can't sit or stand uprite.Please help!!!! 

Well I'm a little tired right now, so I just wanted to thank everyone for their prayers and words of encouragement.I will post a little later after a nap. 



                                                                              Love ya

today i got my gastric bypass surgery   pray for me and give me support

Never thought I would look so forward to becoming a loser.(LOL)My surgery is at 1:30pm and I have to be at hospital at 11:30am. I can't sleep, however I did go to bed early and I got some sleep.I wanted to say something to my OH family. Other than my church family I have never received so much love and support from strangers. It truly has wowed me. You guys have inspired me, encouraged me, comforted me and embraced me. I really feel humbled and blessed. I only pray that I can be all those things to you and future OH ers. Just writing this has brought such a peace and calm to my anxious and nervous spirit. Please continue to pray for me LaVeda, my hubby Brian and my girls Nakeya, Tahiya and Breona.I will update my progress as soon as I can, I'm bringing my laptop with me. Thank you so much and I look forward to sharing my experience with you.        


OK I know I over did it with the tags, but they are so darn cute.

I need some help. I wasn't sure if you can't eat anything or drink for 24 hours or after 12 midnight before surgery.?Call doctor office but nurses are gone for the day. I drank some some water, will this hinder my surgery. I'm freaking out.

I have three days left until my surgery and I'm so scared. Please pray for me.
