Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've visited OH but im glad to be back. A lot has happened since i last updated. Right now i no longer live in Dallas and I have a new man in my life. I have gain some of my wait back but not much, i am still under 200 and I plan on staying that way. I have began working out again and eating better trying to lose about 15-20 pounds if i can. I also bought a book online called Eating Healthy after Weight Loss Surgery to help with meals so i won't get bored with the same old stuff everyday. I just wanted to vent and to see how everyone is doing. I see people haven't been up here like they used to which is ashame. I will try my best to keep you guys updated and i look forward to hearing some feed back if anyone has any.

WELL I HAVE NOT BEEN DOING WELL AS FAR AS LOSING MORE WEIGHT, I NEED SOME HELP I EAT ALL THE WRONG THINGS AND I DON'T WORK OUT. I CAN 'T GET UNDER 160 AND RIGHT NOW I HAVE BEEN FLUCUATING BETWEEN 160 AND 169. SOME TIMES I HAVE GOTTEN UP TO 171 AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. IF THERE IS ANYBODY OUT HERE THAT LEAVE IN DALLAS TX AND NEEDS A WORK OUT PARTNER LEAVE ME A MESSAGE SO WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER. IT SO SAD THAT BEFORE I HAD THE SURGERY I HATE RIGHT AND WORKED OUT BUT NOW THAT I HAVE HAD THE SURGERY I HAVE GOTTEN LAZY BUT NOW I SEE EVERYONE ELSE GETTING SMALLER AND I AM GETTING BIGGER AND I HAVE ONLY BEEN OUT A YR AND A HALF. SOME BODY PLEASE HELP.

Well i know I don't update much but i do check messages, well any way i have relocated to Dallas TX and i have been up here a month now. My weight fluctuates between 160 and 165, i really want to be at 150 but it looks like the weight loss has stopped or either i am just not doing what i am supposed to do be doing. My new job is really stressful and when i get home i don't want to do anything but relax. Marriage has also been stressful and i guess all this moving around and different foods aren't helping either. I wonder sometimes if i am addicted to food because even when i am not hungry i eat and it's like i have to taste something and then i am miserable after i have eaten. Well i have made an appointment with one of the doctors here in Dallas cause i need to talk to somebody before I'll be back to my old size and i don't want to do that. If anybody has any suggestion please feel free to share.

I have been so busy and  I have not been able to update my success with you guys. I am down to a size 8-9 and even some 7s of course it depends on who designs the clothing. My weight is not moving like i think it should but i am at 160 and 164, i guess that's because i am not working out like i should but that is about to change now that i am getting to my anniversary. I didn't come this far to start gaining weight back. I will try to better with the updates you guys be cool and safe.

Hey guys well I am down to 172.2 and I am very excited about what I am seeing. But I really can't wait to get to my goal which is 145 and to be a size 8. On yesterday I bought a size 10 pants and I can't believe it, so I am not too far from being a size 8. Well I guess I will talk to you guys later be blessed always.

Hi guys I just thought I would update, well as for now I'm down to 177.0 and my goal is to get down to 145. I don't want to get too small lol but I definately don't want to be big again. It sometimes feel as though the weight is moving slow and I don't know if that is a bad thing or what, but I guess I shouldn't complain at least I am loosing something no matter if its pounds or inches. Well I don't remember if I informed you guys but I started a new job and I am in school full time and going to the gym, so my weeks are very full but it's all good. That's all I have to say for now I just hope who ever reads my stories or post be encourage because we are all fighting the same fight and we will win.

My husband and I have started at the gym on last week and it feels good, and I am hoping to start seeing better results now that I have began working out. My body has been aching but I know that it is al worth it and I know that after awhile it will not be hurt as much once I get used to it. I also started a new job a permenent position so you know I am happy about that and I am back at school, so I guess I have a lot of things going on for the begining of the new year. I will keep you guys posted as much as possible and good luck to you all.

Hi everyone out there, I know it has been awhile since the last time I posted something but I have not had access to a computer since i have moved from VA. It's been really hard sice I have moved even with trying to find employment and affordable housing. Well today I started my new job through the temp service has a receptionist until something better comes along and my husband and I have moved from my parents house into my sisters fema trailer since she has moved out. Something is better than nothing right ha ha. My husband has not been lucky with employment either, and I am not sure why especially since he has a degree and all but I know that we will have the victory. As far as the weight loss it's slow but moving I am down to 183 see I told you it's moving, I think it's because I am not getting enough protein in like I should and I have not been excercising either but i think now that i am working i will go and join a gym. But I have done some walking not much but some, I am just not the out doors type of person that's why have not done much of excercising. Well I guess that is all for now I will try and update with some pics as soon as i can. Please keep me in your prayers.

I AM SORRY I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO UPDATE YOU GUYS SINCE THE PROCEDURE. I HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY BEFORE AND AFTER THE SURGERY. WELL AS  YOU SHOULD KNOW I HAVE GOTTEN MARRIED AND THEN ABOUT 10 DAYS AFTER I HAD MY SURGERY, I LEARNED  THAT I HAD TO MOVE FROM MY APT EARLIER THAN I ANTICIPATED SO MY HUSBAND HAD TO DO THE PACKING PRETTY MUCH BY HIMSELF BUT HE DID HAVE SOME HELP FROM SOME OF OUT FRIENDS. WELL I HAVE MOVED BACK TO NEW ORLEANS LA AND MY HUSBAND AND I ARE TRYING TO GET SETTLE WITH EMPLOYMENT AND FINDING SOMEWHERE TO LIVE. AS FAR AS THE SURGERY I HAVE BEEN GOOD JUST TRYING TO GET THE PROTEIN WHICH SOME TIMES IS NASTY. I HAVE BASICALLY BEEN TRYING TO TAKE IT EASY AND TAKE MY VITAMINS WHICH I DO FORGET SOMETIMES BUT NOT TOO OFTEN. SO FAR I AM DOWN TO ABOUT 196 AND I WAS AT 221 BEFORE THE SURGERY. I HOPE TO GET DOWN TO AT LEAST 140 AND THEN I WILL BE SATISFIED. WELL YOU GUYS KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS AND I WILL DO THE SAME.

WE MARRIED ON SEP. 15,2007 AT 4:20 THE WEDDING STARTED LATE WAITING ON SOME OF MY BRIDAL PARTY WHICH HAPPEN TO BE MY SISTERS. I AM VERY HAPPY THAT GOD HAS BLESSED ME WITH MY BEST FRIEND WHO IS NOW MY HUSBAND. AND HE IS VERY SUPPORTIVE OF ME IN GETTING THE SURGERY BUT OF COARSE HE FEELS LIKE I DON'T NEED IT. YEAH I KNEW HE WOULD SAY THAT HE'S MY HUSBAND. BUT THE WEDDING WENT WELL AND I AM GLAD IT IS OVER NOW, IT WAS AWESOME THAT MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS WERE ABLE TO COME TOGETHER AND NOT FOR A FUNERAL. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS UPSETTING TO ME IS THAT I COULD NOT HAVE ALL OF MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS AT THE WEDDING BECAUSE I HAVE RELOCATED DUE TO HURICANE KATRINA. BUT YOU KNOW EVERYBODY THAT MATTERED TO ME THE MOST WAS THERE AND BECAUSE OF THAT I AM GREATFULL. NOW ON TO THE NEXT STEP THE WLS AND THEN SOME BABIES LOL.
