I'm an incredible shrinking woman!

Jan 16, 2009

These days I'm flying sky high. Not a day goes by that someone doesn't say how great I look, ask me how much I lost, etc!  I feel wonderful. I am so happy. I love my sleeve!

Wow it has been 6 months since my surgery!!!

Dec 26, 2008

I have lost 72 pounds!  I can't believe it, It's amazing!  I can't begin to explain how good it feels to have people just come up to me out of the blue telling me how great I look. I went from a size 24 pants 26/28 shirts in June to today I'm wearing large Pajamas and a size 16 jeans. I bought the cutest Levi jeans this morning.  I feel great, just need to take heartburn meds everyday, but I can certainly handle that!  I'm really happy and pleased with my results so far!

Just 13.5 pounds until I get to Onederland!!!!!

50 pounds gone!

Oct 03, 2008

I did it!  I hit 50 pounds!!!!!!!!

3 months out today!!!

Sep 25, 2008

I've lost 47 pounds!  I can't even believe it!   I'm going on a cruise in 2 weeks and I'm sure that I'll be celebrating a weight loss of 50 pounds!!! I'm so excited!

My hair is falling out

Sep 22, 2008

I'm approaching 3 months, I've lost about 45 pounds.  I still can't really eat much, which is ok, because that's why I'm losing, but my long longs are falling out like crazy!   I'm a bit worried I'm going to start having bald spots soon.

On a lighter side!   I fit into another smaller size jeans this weekend and started to cry!  It's an emotional experience. I've not been at my current weight since around the time I had my 13 year old son! 

We went out for my husband's birthday and a friend of mine kept saying how hot I am.   I felt great!!!!

I've accomplished a few things already!!

1.To be able to not have the red grooves in my stomach because my jeans are too tight.- Yeah but now I'm wearing smaller tight jeans!! LOL

4. To wear some clothes I have had stashed away for years because one day I might be able to fit in them again.

7. To be a good influence on my daughters and to make all my children proud.  They are proud of me!

15. Weigh less than my husband! WOOO hooo- it's not a good feeling to weigh more than your 6'2 husband!

22. Have better sex with my husband!!!!  He said, hey is that a hip bone I feel???? LOL

25. Be an inspiration to others.   I think I am!


2 months already!

Aug 26, 2008

I'm so excited to report that I have lost 36 pounds already.  I feel pretty again!  People are noticing and I love that too! 

Just a little over a month out

Jul 30, 2008

So, I'm a little over a month out now.  I am enjoying the weight loss so far!  It's so exciting.  I'm already fitting in clothes out of my "too small" stash and that feels great.

I'm a little frustrated with not being able eat anything yet.  I can handle carnation instant breakfast.  I am eating some thin yogurt right now and even that is causing me to feel yucky and gurgly!  

I'm sure that my tummy is just taking it's time to heal and adjust and I have so much weight to lose still that I shouldn't be fussin, but I am craving a crunchy salad like crazy!!!!!

So, I've had my surgery now

Jul 14, 2008

 

I've been sleeved!

My husband and I flew down to San Diego and then were picked up by my Doctor's office and driven down to Mexicali.   I must say to anyone that is wondering that going to Mexico was a wonderful experience. My doctors were fabulous and the hospital was very nice.  I'm happy I made the choice.

I't's been almost 3 weeks since my surgery and I had lost 17 lbs last Wed when I weighed myself. I don't want to start obsessing so I still just weigh myself and make note of it on Weds.

I am happy to report that I am now pulling some clothes out of my too small bag and that is a wonderful feeling!

I'm still on liquids so I have a hard time getting much protein.  So, I'm really tired, but seeing those numbers on the scale drop makes all this worth it!
