HI!  It's August 2009 - a little over a YEAR since my surgery!  And WOW what a difference...  I'm down about 110 pounds, but have hit a (self-induced) plateau.  It's difficult to admit, but surgery doesn't "cure" your "head" issues.  You have to work at that - the surgery is simply a tool.  If you don't use your tool correctly, you'll cease to lose weight - or you may even gain.

That being said, my biggest problems are lack of exercise and failure to follow a healthy eating plan...  Keep me in your prayers.  I know I can do this!

Hello!  It's been a while since I wrote...  Things are going well, but I've hit a plateau and can't seem to get past it...  I'm not exercising at all, and I know that contributes to it.  I'm not motivating myself.

I have knee surgery scheduled for March 10th and hopefully, that'll help.  Say a prayer that all goes well as the doctor removes my bone spur and fragments from under the right knee.

I also need to focus on my eating.  I am eating too much - and snacking inappropriately.  I know it's related to the recent stressors in my life, but I have to learn to handle stress in some other way...  Any suggestions?  :-)

All total, I'm down 92 pounds.  I lost 21 in the three weeks before surgery and 71 since surgery on August 11th, 2008...

I keep praying!  God is so good!

Well, it's taken me a while, but I've finally got my page up and running.  I set my Avatar as an older pic of me - close to my heaviest weight.  I have to get some pictures of me recently so I can do some before and after shots.  I added my story - I'll add to it as time goes on - and I'll keep my progress posted too.
