 Yes I know I am about slack @ this sorry !!!! I am doing well still adjusting to my new life and working like crazy !!!!! As far as my weight loss goes I am doing well ........ I am having a few problems we are working on !! My body does not like any meats or if it likes them I can't find any it likes. We have tried everything. So right now my stomach is stuck on stupid !!!!! I feel great and look great(I think) and I have already started to think about the plastic surgery part of this since I am only about 30 lbs from my goal.Which is a crazy thought to me since I started out with180 lbs to loose. It has been a learning adventure and I learn something new everyday. I miss hearing from all of you hear and hope to get back into being on here a little more soon..


Have A Great And Wonderful DAY

Mary

 Sorry I have been so absentee on letting y'all know how I have been. I have been well as far as surgery goes my weight loss is going GREAT. I am down about 120 # 's YEAH !!!! I feel amazing. Just been crazy I am going thur a divorce and have moved home to Florida will upload pics soon. Hope everyone is well !!!!!!!

 Wow it's been a little over a week since I wrote last. I am home at my house now so nice. Today I got the kids up for school for the first time since surgery. Stayed up had my coffee. Then on to the rest of my food routine for the day. It is crazy and I'm adjusting to everything ok. 12 days out of surgery and I feel great, Ive lost 22 lbs (YAY) and everything is going good. I do find that I have no desire for food or to eat. I do have to be reminded from time to time to catch something to eat. Having no probs with my fluids. Never have though.

Well kinda I am at the in laws still. I have a 15 lb pug who doesn't understand no. I hope everyone had a great Easter. My surgery went great no problems. I got to leave the hospital on Friday Kinda think I should have stayed that extra day but all has been fine. I seem to be going good with getting my fluids and proteins in. I know I'm still sore and still tired but that I expected. I want to Thank EVERYONE who sent the the super sweet and nice messages and well wishes God Bless you all. Well I go tomorrow to get my drain tube out ..... YEAHHHH. I will give and update soon !!!! 


 

It is  finally time  !!!!!!!!  I am so excited. Today I got all the shopping done for the kids. Got Easter Stuff taken care of. and have kids packed and ready to go. I went and got  steaks for me and the  hubby for dinner (fear of not being able to handle beef after surgery).Now Im just waiting on the call from them telling me what time to be there tomorrow. Gosh I wish they would call , nerves are bad as it is. . Well everyone take care and I will talk to ya again soon. 

HAPPY EASTER ALSO 

Mary

O.K. so today is the day for final house work, finish all laundry (as if that ever ends with 3 girls) and get everything else done so I can just relax with the family the next 2 days. The kids are on spring break so we can do the park and stuff Monday and Tuesday. Then Wed. it's off to surgery. WOOOOHOO. So till next time everyone take care. Oh yeah and if I am not back on HAPPY EASTER and GOD Bless you all !!!!

Yeah  !!!! I am so excited, so nervous. I have to get everything here at home finished before Tuesday night. Gotta get shopping grocery shopping done for the family.Yoy know easy stuff daddy is cooking, actually my 11 yr old will proably do most the cooking...lol. I have a baby shower to attend, I have to get me packed for the hospital and laundry finished. We have decided that I will stay @ my in laws till my drain comes out because my 4 yr old is so dependent on me and crawls in my bed in the middle of the night and that would be very bad.

WOOOHOOOO  1 week till surgery. I am so excited I am beside myself !!! I love knowing that in 7 days I will be on my way to a brand new life that I have longed for , for so long now. I do find it hard to imagine some days life without and extra 170 lbs. Then other days I can see it so clearly. I long to be able to run and play with my girls whenever they want me to not when I have the energy.I can't wait for the day that my hubby ask me to go somewhere with him and his friends and I say yes because I don't feel like I am an embarrassment to him ( he doesn't think I am but I do). I guess I really just can't wait to have my life back and feel in control and not feel like my weight controls my actions or who I am anymore. I have realized through this process how much I have let the weight control my life, my attitude , my happiness and they way I feel about me. I will never let weight or anything have so much power over me again. I just thank God for this opportunity and I will use this tool to achieve my goals and new way of life.

 Ok so I knew this was going way to easy. I got everything done (so I thought). Did pre op yesterday with anastia and the nurses, didn't go to clinic. (ooops). Then I got home and last night I realize this and I was looking through the mail and my approval letter came in and in reading it I relize that we got approval for Lap band NOT for gastric. Oh no not good. I tell ya I really know there are days when the my patience are tested . But I totally didn't freak out (yeah me ). I called and being as great ppl they are down there they called me back ASAP and they are not seeing a problem getting it changed but said to just be prepared incase they say no to gastric and to go ahead with the band. Not sure how I feel about that but I know the Lord will do what is best for me.

God Bless Anyone who Reads This

 Yeah I did my pre op today and everything is good to go. Now it's just that 16 day wait. But I have a lot to do between now and then. So I guess I'll just keep myself busy untill then and pray that the time goes quickly. I am now getting nervous. It's a good nervous but nerves still. My BP was up alittle today not bad but more than normal on my medicine. I know it will all work out  just excited. !!
