Well today hubby, the kids and I had alot of fun in the snow. First the work of shoveling the driveway and sidewalk had to be done. Then we tracked across the backyard and up the biggest hill behind where we live on post. I am 33 years old and today is the first time I have ever been sledding. I grew up in Georgia, there was never enough snow for sledding there. Last year at this time I was 356 pds and could not physically go sledding. It took all I could do to walk across the backyard to just take a few pics of the kids and hubby last year. It was sooooo freeing flying down the hill on the sled today. A feeling I will never forget and one that I cant wait to feel again !!!! I can still hear the kids and hubby, and me laughing today having so much fun together !   

Well Thanksgiving is over, now Christmas in knocking on our door. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Mine was awesome !! My dad , whom at one time I hadnt seen for about 15 years flew to Kansas from Georgia to spend the holiday. This is actually his third Thanksgiving in a row, we have kinda made ourselves a new tradition. We are military, so he just flies wherever we happen to be, lol. This year he brought my half-brother too. My children love him, he is 23 and tends to play and entertain the kids very well. We all spent lots of time with each other and had a great time. I really need to buckle down with eating and excercise. The holidays have always made me , well not be on track we will say. I am doing like I have read so many times before.....take one day at the time, one minute at the time, one second at the time. If I can just get through Christmas, and get a little warmer weather around here, lol. Best of wishes to all you guys too !!!     

A friend of mine from work (Jennifer), her daughter (Aubrey), Hannah (daughter's friend), myself and my daughter (Claudia) went to World's of Fun in Kansas City, Mo this past Saturday. OMG ! How much fun did I have. I cant tell you or even remember the last time I have been on a roller coaster. The sheer thrill and excitement I felt. It was just like being a kid again. My daughter and I had soooo much fun and laughed so much. I love being throwed around and upside down. I cant wait to go back again and enjoy another day like that with my children again. So many years I have not been able to share moments like that with them, I mean I was there, but not really. You guys know what I mean. I am glad I didnt have to stand on the sidelines this day. YEAH ME !!!! I thanked God several times on Saturday as I do every day for me having had the chance to have this surgery and be getting back in the game.   

06-24-06 Howdy all ! Hope everyone is doing great on their weight loss and surgery. I am about 3 1/2 months out now. I am down 69 pounds and weighing 287. OMG , I made it to the 200's. I do worry about this still working for me when I see someone who had their sugery around the same time as I and they have lost more weight. I stop and remember all the times I have read that we all lose at different rates, but it will still come off. So I just keep chugging along. Until next time, OUT ! :)

09-02-06 My my it has been awhile ! I am officially 100 pounds lost. I now weigh 256. YIIIPPPEEEE! I am feeling good and very proud of how far I have come. I still have a ways to go, but I am determined to get there. I have my 6 month check up on the 13th. The kids are all back in school, even I am....I got a job working at the school where my 10 & 6 yr old go. I am enjoying being back to work, and some adult conversation. Hope everyone is where you want to be in your journey. I am moving right along in mine.

05-16-06 Well I am now aabout 8 weeks out of surgery, two months if you go by the 16th. I am good and am down 52 pounds. I cant really see it yet other than my clothes are getting baggy and sloppy looking. I cant wait to be in the 200's. I am at 303 right now. It has been a loooonnnggg time since I have seen 200 anything, I am ready for 299 and lower, lol.

Well we are on the downhill to surgery here. I am scheduled for March 16th. I started my 10 day liquid diet yesterday. I am surviving and havent cheated, but it is hard. I think hubby is scared for me to even cook because he thinks it is torture on me. It isnt as bad as I thought, but at times it can be, especially at night. It will all be worth it in the end though if the lap works out ok, I would just rather not be cut if I dont have to. I am keeping fingers crossed here.
