Walking!

May 22, 2007

Well today I told myself I had to get my butt in gear and get out there walking if I ever want to meet my goal weight! So my husband got me and IPOD shuffle and I tell you what we just moved and walking in my new neighborhood was really nice! I walked for 30 minutes and to my surprise was not even winded! Something really different for me! Not to mention I just had a friend who had WLS surgery and talking with her reminds me of what all I SHOULD be doing!

Down 2 more!

May 16, 2007

Well I am down 2 more pounds today! I only have 44 to go to meet my goal weight what I am more excited about is that  I only have 20 to go before I am finally under 200lbs and I haven't done that for 16 years!

8 months Post Op

May 15, 2007

I am now 8 months post op! I think I am doing pretty good. I have always been a slow loser mostly I think because I don't exercise the way that I should. But I am down 108lbs!

I am still having the problem of looking in the mirror or pictures and seeing that fat girl still! To me it is just motivation to keep on keep keeping on!

I often wonder if I am the only one out there that loses so slow!

Until next time!

Finally dropped a size!

Apr 28, 2007

I was so thrilled the other day I went shopping the other day and am down from a 28 to start and am now in a 16! I am a slow loser and it takes me a while to drop sizes but I tell you when it happens it is such a great feeling! I am so glad that I had this surgery I wish I had done it sooner or I guess younger! I feel like I could have had so much more quality to my life if I had done this sooner!

I still struggle some days with what I can  and can not eat, vomitting is still my biggest thing, I have only dumped one time in 7 months but still vomit at least once a week because my pouch did not like what I put in there.

I hope that by writing this someone else might read it and be going through the same type of things and can relate!

Until next time!

What a difference a week makes! I am finally losing again! I hate stalls! I also have a love hate relationship with the sacale!They could make me go crazy! As if I am not crazy enough!

Okay so I am four months and a week and I am down 73lbs! I guess that is not too bad! I am tired in the mornings but from like 2:00 on I feel so good! I feel normal I guess! Today I was getting ready to leave the house and I put on my tennis shoes and bent over tied them and get this I was able to breathe and I didn't even turn red! That was exciting for me! :-)

Pill case

Jan 08, 2007

Okay I bought myself a pill case like my mom's and grandmothers and it has been helpful in helping me to remember to take all of my pills and vitamins. Over the holidays I was really bad about forgetting my vitamins but I am back on track now and I will do whatever helps me to remember!

Postive Attitude

Jan 07, 2007

Okay I am working on a more positive attitude and taking advice from others on how NOT to compare myself to other peoples weight loss! I went to see Dr. Clark and he said I am doing great and that is important!  It really does help have a support system to talk to and vent to! They help to put things into perspective! Things just got a little stressful for me over the holidays with family coming in and my husband informed me that we will be moving several months prior than expected well  I think I focused more on that and the negative then on how far I have actually come in the last four months! As many friends have said when is the last time you lost 67lbs in four months! Uh like never! So that does make me feel a bit better! I am glad that took the time to write to others who have had the surgery and glad I have this page to come too!
