I weigh around 139 lbs. now and am happily remarried and expecting my first child.  I am about a month and a half pregnant, and my due date is November 28th, 2008.  

Now I hope I can get the nutrients in that I need to get in for the pregnancy.  I am not too worried about gaining back all of the weight that I lost, I just want to make sure that I can get the nutrition I need.  Oh well, I guess we will see!    Until later . . .

I went to see Dr. Clark this month and everything is still going well.  I currently weight 158 lbs. and am almost at my target weight.  I should go to the support group tonight, but I want to wait until the one next month, and see how much I lose before then.  That will be a big improvement since last Decembers support group.  I was so much bigger then.  Wow, what a change.  Yay!  :)

Well, today after my workout in the pool I weighed myself and I have lost 95 lbs. to date.  Thats wonderful.  I am still in the "Moderately Overweight" range but started out in the Moderately Obese or whatever range so I am happy.  I just keep on going with all of this because I know I can get where I need to be.  Pool exercise is wonderful.  And I can eat better, so thats a plus.  OK, thats all for now.  

Jan 22 - 272 lbs

Aug 24 - 177 lbs

-95 lbs in 7 months.  YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is about 3 days away from my 7 month mark and I have lost a total of 92 lbs. to date.  I have gone from a size 24W to a size 16 in most pants.  It is amazing how you feel like it isn't really doing anything and then all of a sudden its gone.  92 lbs. didn't seem like a lot of weight to me until I saw the picture that Dr. Clark's office took before I had the surgery.  

Wow, time flies when you're having fun.  Now I am working on getting a degree in ASL-English Interpretation, along with a degree in education.  This is going to be interesting.  LOL.  

Good luck to all visiting my page!

Well, I lost some more weight . . .

Today is July 19th, and I am almost 6 months out of surgery exactly.  I weigh about 186 lbs. now, which means I am down about 86 lbs in 6 months.  Yay!  I will have to get more pictures to post . . . .

For those of you who wanted an updated picture of me, I finally got one!!  It really isn't the best one, I will get some others soon.  This one is of the 4th of July, we had a little get together with my family, and this is my boyfriend and I.  I weigh around 195 lbs. in this picture.  

To date I have lost about 77 lbs and that is since January 22nd, 2007.  Hooray!!!!!!!!!!  :o)

Today IS the DAY!!!

Jun 21, 2007

FINALLY, I have weighed myself earlier today and have broken the 200 lb mark.  I weighed myself and I weigh 198 lbs.  It feels wonderful, because I haven't seen this weight in a really long time!  I can't wait to continue my journey because hopefully it can only get better!  More posts to come! . . .

Today is ALMOST the day . . . .

Hey everyone, just an update for you to let you know when I weighed myself this morning I weighed 201 lbs!!!  I am almost under the 200 lb mark!!!  YAY!!!  I have been waiting for that moment for quite some time now, and I am so happy that it is approaching now.  I have lost about 3-4 sizes now from about a 24W to a 18W, of course it always depends on the clothing.  

To everyone reading this, keep on working hard, good luck, and I know everyone else is going to do wonderful on their journey!!

Hey everyone, just a note since I haven't written in quite a while.  I weigh around 214 now, and feel decent, but for the past 3 days I haven't been able to eat or drink barely anything.  I called the doctor and he said that he wants to do an endoscopy and a gi tract thingy, I am not excited about it.  I will write more later . . .
