It has been awhile.  I am down 114lbs. in 6 months.  Things are going great!  I can't complain.  I do have my ups and downs, good days and bad but I would do this all over again in a heartbeat.  I went to Disney in May and to be able to walk all day and night was great, not worry about the rides and if I were to big!!!  Well I will upload pics soon.  Hope everyone is doing great!

Well I have learned the hard way about spasms.  It seems when I get upset or stressed my stomach starts spasming.  It hurts so bad, well not only on top of the spasms I start throwing up!  UGHHH...I guess I need to try and keep my nerves under control and quit letting people get under my skin and agrivate me.  I hope this goes away but for now this is what I am dealing with how Lovely!  I go next week to see Dr. H, I don't think I will have lost my 75lbs but I am at 65.  Guess I shouldn't complain!

OH NOOOO!!!

Well I went to a friend of mine's house and I ate a cookie.  OMG I was sooo upset I cried.  It was awesome, I will say that.  Wonderful and I didn't dump.  Seems like I dump on carbs mostly not sweets which is really scary!  I am up to 60lbs  weight loss.  Of course that is my scale I can't wait to see what Dr. H's says.  I hope to loose another 10-15 lbs before I go back which is on march 12.  So keep your fingers crossed!  I am going to exercise my but off for the next few weeks!

UGHHHH Went to Dr.

Well I had my 4 month visit with Dr. Field my endocrinologist.  He hasn't seen me since the surgery.  He was thrillled with the weightloss.  I have to go and get my bloodwork done, which I will do tommorrow.  Anyway, bad news when he told me I still need to take my glucophage.  He said it will benefit me and while loosing weight is helping my genetics haven't changed.  I was sooo disappointed when I got out of there.  Only good thing is instead of 3 pills a day he said 1 day.  These pills are soooo big.  So I am going to cut them in half and take them that way.  Everytime I take glucophage it makes me sooo sick.  So I am praying that it won't be bad this time.  So that is my latest news.  Down 50 lbs!

So my mom tells me I need a new bra.  I hate buying bras.  Well I said ok I will order one when  I get home.  I stopped by Walmart for a couple of things on my way home and said let me look at the bras while I am here.  So I found one I really liked.  But being a 50DD I knew they wouldn't have my size, I knew also my bras where way to big, so I picked up the biggest size in this bra which is a 44DD.  I knew when I came home it wouldn't fit, but I tried it on and guess what IT FIT!!!  I was so shocked yet  so excited I didn't know what to do.  So there ya go all this was worth it.

Well thankfully things have been going smoothly lately.  The rash is gone, off the steriods (thank goodness) and been exercising.  Yesterday was bit of a blah day and stomach was little upset but other than that things are going.  I have been eating pretty much anything.  I have increased my protein and actually got in 55 grams the other day.  I was thrilled!  So I am just working on getting more and more.  Some days I feel hungry while others I don't want to put anything in my mouth.  My clothes are getting bigger, bras getting bigger, even my underwear!  Craziness! But soo worth it!!  Well I will close for now!  Good Luck

Well today I got a little teary eyed, I was getting dressed to go and show a house and I needed to find something to wear.  While I didn't have any jeans that have fit me I took a pair out and said let me try.  THEY FIT!!  Yep slid them right on!  I was soo excited.  Then I looked for a shirt while, I was able to fit in a smaller one I ended up putting on one of my bigger fleece shirts.  Of course my husband was excited but said it was time to give the shirt away.  

So that was the first one:

After I showed the houses I decided I needed to get me a pair of shoes, something casual.  So I went to the store and I am down a whole shoe size I was amazed.  I could have gone down another 1/2 size but the bigger ones where more comfortable.  

So that is My Day I have had to look in the mirror and just smile.  It's good to smile since it's been awhile!

OH Yea Oh yea!!!

Well i did it I bought a scale.  Guess what it's under 300.  Yep under 299 to be exact and that was at 400pm this evening so I am going to wait until morning and see what it says then.  I am sooo excited.  I would hope to loose another 35lb before going back to see Dr. h.  

Well for some not so good news, I had to go back AGAIN to the Dr/  I called the dermatologist office this morning and got an appointmnet with her.  The rash from last week hasn't gone away.  So I got worried and called them.  Well apparently you have have a reaction and it can bottom out and then jump right back in UGHHH..so 14 days of predisone and a cream for my body and another for my face.  It is soooo agrivating.  Just when things calm down something else starts back up.  Well have a good nite1

ughhhhh

Well Saturday was my first venture to a restaurant.  The smells didn't get to me, thankfully I was able to sit there.  I ordered a cup of chicken/sausage gumbo (didn't eat sausage), and an order of red potatoes.  I ate what I thought I could and apparently it was too much talking and eating.  I was miserable!  As soon as I got out of there I was .  It was horrible, I have been  since Saturday at 9 pm, and ALL DAY yesterday.  I went back strickly on clear liquids.  I will do this for a couple of days and hopefully my pouch will quit being so darn fussy!  I will say this much I have cured myself to know that I won't be going out again anytime soon.  I am just so disgusted, I was having the best last 3 days and bam set back again.  I have kept down clear liquids and a couple of popsicles.  I just hope the throwing up is done.  It is beginning to really hurt, cramps and then .  CAN YOU SAY UGHHHHHH.  Well I hope you all are doing well and talk with you soon!
