I'm pretty amazing.
Feb 27, 2012
I would like to give myself a pat on the back. I've been doing fanfreakintastic lately. I feel amazing. I'm able to eat a little more, tolerate a little more and the vites are going down with ease now. I'm even working out.
The mental strength it takes to go through this surgery/WL journey is a lot more demanding that I had first imagined. It's really been hard for me but I'm making it. How wonderful is that?
Did I mention how good l look? lol I'm down 130 now 8 months out. 70 more lbs to go.
Self Sabotage?

It's been suggested, but I'm beginning to wonder if I'm just being lazy. I'm not taking my vitamins correctly, I'm mostly eating right but I could be doing better and I'm not working out. What's the matter with me?
I'm happy! I'm in love with my weight loss. I'm already down 105lbs almost 5 months out. I look great. I feel great. Why am I not taking better care of myself?
Tomorrow I start. All the vits. All the protein. Everything. I must be accountable to myself.
The night before surgery and all through the house...

The children are gone and I'm wide awake. I'm sure this is just pre surgery jitters. This is also the first time I've left my 8 month old over night (let alone 4 nights!). My 5 year old twins are worried about me but I know their cousins will keep them busy. Now...what's left to worry about? lol
I've bowel prepped, bathed, packed and made lists. I'm ready. SO ready.
I'm keeping all the warm wishes and prayers close to my heart and heading to bed. This is the last time I'll ever weigh this much!
FINALLY!!

YAY! I've met my goal and surgery is on for Wednesday, June 22nd. I'm so excited and nervous. I am so thankful for this opportunity and for Dr. Ikramuddin's wonderful and very supportive team. I'm looking forward to my surgery and know I'm in good hands. I think it speaks volumes when you go into a clinic and people stop you just to tell you how wonderful their experience with Dr. Ikramuddin and his team has been. This has happened to me every time I go in to the clinic. Today is was a woman who was 6 years post op and looks great!

1 week before Surgery
Jun 13, 2011
I have 1 week left before surgery and I still have 8 lbs to lose. Is this even possible? I'm on a strict Slim Fast and water Diet. I've also been going on half walk half runs every day. I'm feeling deflated since they've already rescheduled my surgery once because I can't seem to lose these last 8. So Frustrating!
