I went from a 5X to a 28 in 4 months...OH Family did y'all hear me... I went into Lane Bryant on August the 16th after leaving Catherin's(plus size store too) and not able to find a pink top for this occasion I was going to but to make a long story short I went into Lane Bryant after not been in a Lane Bryant store in yearsssss, and I came out with a PINK top a SIZE 28 I was so proud of myself...Now I wear the top to death you hear me to death... lol...lol that's the only thing I have brought so far trying to wait for the fall... so when you see my pictures and it looks like I have on that Pink/white/black and yellow Top in all my new pictures its cause I do...lol I wear a bottom with each one of them colors in da TOP... cause I'm so proud its a size 28... still have a long ways to go to get to my goal dress size which is a size 18, but right now I am Thankful & LOVING what is lossssssssed.

I am just so busy loving this new life changing experience till I don't know what to do wit myself... I have never been so ready to go like I am now... Every time somebody say U wanna? I don't even let them finish the rest before I'm saying when, how much and okay am going... I even went to the club, U gotta believe it... I didn't get on the dance floor not yet... but I feel it coming on...I went to see  Marvin Sease, (The Candy Licker) picture posted....N you would never believe it Yo girl had on pants y'all, yes I did I wore some britches...wit my new size 28 top .(picture posted) I haven't had on a pair of pants in ova 25yrs, y'all don't hear me ova 25yrs been to ashamed to wear them...

I am so happy right now, watch out am fix in to sing..." I Got MY Own House, I Got My Own Car, Two Jobs Work Hard U A Bad Broad If U Ain't On Sit Down"  , I never thought I would have days where I just felt like I fitted in no complaints,  it it feels so good to put on clothes and knowing they either going to fit just right or be to big...Yes y'all everything I have now is too bigggg... and the hens on my job are wearing me out... wit you are losing a lot of weight, what are you doing, y'all one even looked at me at that time and told me how how much I looked like I had lost at that time and I be damn if she didn't hit the shyt on the nose which was 70 pounds at that time so am like damn was I really that damn bigggg.... 70 pounds sounds like a lot, but when I look in the mirror I still see that 5X me...but everyone else sees different... is anyone else experiencing that?...  but it feels so good to walk into a room and not feel like you are the biggest thing in the room, it feels good to be willing and able to go hang out with family and friends and not feel like everyone is looking at you because you are huge but because they are amazed at  your change...it feels good to be able to smile back when smiled at...

I am home alone now so I have none thing but time on my hands so watch out there maybe in a city near you...lol...lol

I have no complaints about my decision, and I hope and pray that everyone that has started their journey or have decided to the best.

Forget Me Not... I have been so busy OH Family, Returning back to work trying to catch up 4wks of back log, Moving(((YES!!!))) I signed on the dotted line for my first Home! so packing and moving one week, Youngest of 2 children GRADUATING from HIGH SCHOOL the next week, has been a workout all in its self...

I actually go to my primary physician on 6/28 for the first time since I had my surgery, I can't wait to see what she has to say if anything of course I get weighed in... It has been 2 months since my surgery and I have no complaints I am loving the attention.

They are on to me on my job, everyday am hearing, "are you losing weight?"  "You are losing weight",  What were you really out of work for?"  am like Star Jones around there "No I did not have WLS, I stared eating right, and joined the gym".

One co-worker rode me so much with concerns to how much weight I have lost, till I had to confessed to her
.  She is over weight too, and she talked about doing the surgery in the past but I never told her I was planning on

doing the surgery. She made me feel so bad, till I was like okay DAMNNNN!!! okay I did it.. She since has given me 3 skirts a size 26w!!!  she was telling me about these skirts she had that were a size 26w and I told her I didn't think I could fit a 26w now she was like yes you can you have lost a lot of weight, so I said ok to make her happy bring them and I will try them if they don't fit I will just keep them till they do... and guess what yall... I tried on the 26w's and I could not believe it I could FIT DEM!!! you here me a 26w and 2 months ago I was wearing a 32w... YESSS a 32w PEOPLE! so yall know I am on a HIGH right now and I don't want to come down...

I will be back with an update on Monday's Doctor's visit I hope am not disappointed.... KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSS...

♫Better Believe It, Better Believe It♫ I went and joined a gym today... yes ♪Better Believe It ♫ Better Believe It ♪ I will be doing my first work out in the morning so I will be back to let y'all know how things went of even if I went...lol ♫♫Better Believe It♪♪ Better Believe It♫♫ What is happening to me I have never been in gym since high school almost 30yrs and never liked it then

I'll be back lata to fill y'all in.

WOW!!! is all I can say, boy do time fly when your having fun... I have just been so hyper since my surgery I don't know what to do wit my shelf, I go for my 4 weeks followup on Tue. 25th so I guess I will be going back to work Wed. 26th, boy have I enjoyed my time off work, but its back to the grind ... I don't know what da hens going to be clucking about when I return, I don't see a difference in me but I can feel it, people are starting to notice it and I just replying "really do it" (((smiling))) over all I have lost 52 lbs and and from day of surgery to 2 wks follow up I loss 19 Ibs..   I haven't eaten anything thus far that didn't like my new stomach...lol. Its so shocking I had no pain, I have not problem eating  or drinking, if it wasn't for me getting full on such a small about I would think none thing was done, really I feel that good since the day after surgery I had to take no pain pills, and thank God I didn't need any cause I wasn't able to get it till 2 days later.

My journey has been a smooth ride thus far and I am enjoying it...

I have in the past week only asked myself why had den I made this decision sooner, but as the old saying goes when its your time you will know, and all I can say  to that is 2010 is my year and  It couldn't of came a day sooner.  I have witness five of six of my friends over the past five years do the WLS any each one procedures took different steps, but I just  never thought it was for me, Now here my Journey begins after one year and one month of prepartions, Here I am ONE WEEK OUT....HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ADIFFERENTME
