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

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 . . .

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! . . .

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 . . .
