I've been stuck at 201 lbs for the last few weeks and need to get out of the 200s and back to the 100s, I really need to make more time for working out, either by waking up early or working out before bedtime.  

I went for my yearly mammogram and was told that I need to go back because they found a spot on my left breast.  Of course I had family and friends pray for me over this situation and I know that the good Lord will take care of me.
Today I had to retake the test and have an ultrasound, they did not see the same spot but found a few more in the ultrasound that are nothing to worry about. They say they are fluid pockets that could be caused by caffine. 
The Good Lord is watching over me.  

I am experiencing hair loss now, I have always had thick hair and for the first time I can put my hair in a ponytail using a smaller rubberband. Everyday when I shower there is a huge ball of hair left behind and it seems as if I am always picking my hair off the floor. Hopefully this hair loss doesn't last a long time.

It's been 3 months since surgery and I have lost a total of 37 lbs. My wedding day I weighed 267 lbs, the day of surgery I weighed 241 lbs and I now weigh 204 lbs. I have lost a total of 63 lbs since getting married in 2005. 37 lbs since 6/4. I am happy with my results so far. I have more energy now then I have had in a long time.  
Having surgery was the best decision I've ever made in my life.  God has sure blessed me in my everyday Life and I thank him everyday for all he's done. 

It's been 11 weeks since my surgery and I have lost a total of 32 lbs.
For the first time since having surgery I had a bad experience. Since I go straight to school from work on Thursday evenings and the instructor only gives us a 15 minute break in the 4 hours of class, I tried to eat half a sandwhich when I got home around 11 pm after taking 3 bites I had this aweful feeling in my chest area which turned into this feeling of getting sick. I threw up for about 5 minutes and the bad feeling lasted for about 20 minutes. The weird thing about this is that I wasn't eating fast and chew my food good so I knew that wasn't the problem, what I think is that my body won't allow me to eat so late at night so from now on I will need to take a snack with me to class so I don't have  to experience this again.

Only 3 more days before I am back to work, at first I was bored staying at home but after a few weeks of rest and relaxation I began to enjoy the time I had off. I can't believe I am going back to work on Monday.
I am 8 weeks post op and have lost 26 lbs since surgery, weight loss appears to be slower then I anticipated but I am happy to be losing weight. 

Since spaining my foot a few weeks ago I  have not excercised, my foot is still healing and while walking i am still experiencing pain. Hopefully I will be able to excercise in another 2 weeks, plus now that I will be back at work I plan on joining the gym at the office.

First appointment with my primary care doctor since surgery. Received results of blood tests. Doctor was amazed that my AlC dropped from 8.1 to 4.7 I no longer am a diabetic, also my cholesterol dropped from 190 to 165 and my fatter liver dropped in half. I am excited that this surgery has already caused benefits for my health.

While taking my evening walk around the neighborhood with the dogs I trip over a big rock and fell and scraped my right knee, hurt my right arm and injured my left foot. after falling I continued walking for 35 minutes and once I returned home cleaned up my knee and iced my foot.  Well, I woke up this morning around 5 to go to the bathroom and was unable to put any pressur on my left foot.  I am now hopping around from my bed to the bathroom and feel throbbing. Waiting for the doctor to call me to let me know what kind of medication I can take.  There goes walking everyday for a while.   

Getting bored on the stage 2 diet plan, I am so sick of having pudding, yogurt and other soft food items, want to eat veggies and chicken now. I never expected to have these feelings at this time.

Its been 3 weeks since my surgery date and to date I have lost 20 lbs. 
I started stage II of the diet plan.  I had no trouble eating egg, or cottage cheese and have been getting 40-47 grams of protein in daily so I'm not having any problems with my protein intake. 
Today I went for my women's yearly checkup the doctor advised me that last year I weighed 258 lbs. Today I weigh 221 lbs I have lost 37 lbs in the last year. I am now 86 lbs away from my goal weight.
