Finally an Update!

Sorry its been so long since I posted an update. It has been 10 days since the day of the surgery. Over 26 lbs gone since March 24.I am sooo excited about the change in my life. Im ready to keep moving on to the next chapter. Its amazing what a concious decision to change your life can do. I know its done wonders for mine. So I am currently on soft protein richs foods. I am ready to go back to work. I was ready to go back this week but apparently, 2 weeks is a good time off. I am looking forward to getting back to work and beginning my exercise plan. By this summer, I hope to be down  30-40 lbs. And by this summer I mean July. I think I can get at least 10 off in may and 10 off in june, maybe more.. I am so excited about these changes in my life. Moving toward other changes that I am not gonna talk about here. But if you wanna know, you know how to get ahold of me. See ya later kids, I have a test to take.

Day 4 post op ( including date of surgery)

Hello Hello. We are day 4 post op including the day of surgery. I am down 20 lbs.. 20 EFFIN POUNDS can you believe it? I had to step off and on the scale a few times before I believed it. Then I cried... yes.. cried...Im gonna take a deep breath and share why...  When I saw Dr Ben Tanner at Norton Surgical Associates at Norton Weight Management, I weighed 246. A number that makes me shudder. When I weighed myself this morning, the scale said 226. I havent seen that number since my daughter was concieved in 2004. I am super happy. My life is moving in the right direction. I know that the weight isnt gonna come off extraordinarily fast.  The liquid diet has not been that bad... Weight loss has been great.. SO.. I shall post again soon.

Day 6.. 2 days pre op...

Ok so.. Im gonna admit it.. now Im starting to get a little nervous... SO Im down over 10 lbs at this point. It hasnt been as hard as I thought it would be. If I keep up at this rate, I will be 30 lbs down by the time I return to work! That would be AWESOME... well excluding the purchase of clothes lol. Gonna have to figure out where to make my clothing purchases that dont cost me a FORTUNE.. I am not sure how I am gonna manage that.. Guess thrift stores will become my friends. Just wanted to check in and talk about how things were going... i am looking forward to this change..

Sorry I missed ya yesterday! Here is the update

So day 4 wasnt horribly hard. Its funny how quickly our bodies adapt. My body was saying "well she isnt feeding us... lets attack the fat store!!" lol.. which is fine with me.. Im a little over 9 lbs down since monday. Im not complaining :) Go me... and this trend is only gonna continue. I am so super excited.. Starting to get a little nervous...But who wouldnt be.. My foot hurts this morning which sucks. My poor foot has been thru hell..falling down a handicap ramp and injuring it.. then 6 years later sprinting away from a gator in florida while visiting my sister didnt help matters... oh and did i mention being over a 100 lbs overweight??? that doesnt help either lol. Anyway.. wanted to give an update. as soon as i figure out how to post pictures.. i will ... Take care.. remember.. yesterday is a memory, tomorrow is not promised... today is a gift thats why its called the present.. live each day as if it were your last.. make it count.

Day 3: Its not so bad...

So I really dont even feel hungry anymore.. its amazing.. Scale still showing a downward trend.. so I wonder what it is gonna look like at the end of 3 weeks.. Finding that as the day approaches, I am starting to get a little nervous. Not because I am afraid.. just because of all the change this is gonna bring. I was talking to my cousin the other day and told her that I hoped I didnt have trouble finding clothes after the weight loss like I do now, she said that most skinny people do.. LOL.. how effin ironic would that be if I had trouble finding clothes when thin.. lol.. that would truly make me LOL. Oh and if anyone has ever tried muscle milk light... its HORRIBLE...... BLUCK.... OH well.. another necessary evil... YAY... anyway things are moving along swimmingly...
Talk to ya soon kiddos...
