I cant believe that it has been a year already. At this point last year i was fasting and drinking my cleanse.  I was 140 lbs bigger and wanted it gone... now I am loving my new self. I have a little extra skin but nothing to complain about. I am healthy and happy. My little  brother is having the operation and has started his classes for the next 6 months. his journey is just beginning.
thanks for all the help and support.

sorry have not been on in a while. have been so busy tith graduation and work and vacation i have not had time. just stopping in to say i am doing well.  cant beive is eight moths out already... time flys it really does.

Well I guess it was bound to happen, I dumped yesterday.  I had a few bites of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and that was that, I fell asleep and then woke up about 30 mins later and had to run to the bathroom. I than slept for for about 3 hours after wards. Not fun!  I had my sugar tested the other day, before surgery I was averging between 110 and 120 as my sugar number. My sugar has been between 74 and 77 which is good. ya. anyway just though I was tell you all I Finlay dumped. Fun stuff. ttys enjoy the nice whether.

It’s been a bit since I last updated on here so I thought on this nice day I would write a bit.  I am now at 172lbs. I started at 260lbs so I am closing in on that hundred pound mark. My weight loss has slowed a lot. So I am trying to get to the gym more and eating more protein again. I am noticing that I am eating a bit more at meals which is bothering me  so I am trying to limit what I eat when I eat.  Bread and I still don’t get alone. I get sick with any kind or pasta or bread or even breading like on chicken. Other than that not too much is new. Oh I finished school!!! YAYA!!!
Thats all for now. Have a Wonderful day and a happy Easter!

So I have cold and a fever so I decide to take some NyQuil.... yeah that was a mistake. I feel like I just too a shot of alcohol.   It burned my stomach when I drank it and now I feel drunk and I cant lay down cuz I have the spins... lol so I am sick and drunk... blah.... i want to sleep

stranger looking back
Current mood:  enlightened You know when I get up and shower in the morning and I am standing there in the bathroom in front of the mirror and I dont even recognize myself anymore. I know I am loosing wieght and I love it. I know  it for the best and I am thankful that everything worked out and that I am working for a better me but  its so strange to look in a mirror and not know yourself. I  mean I know its me but sometime it catches me off guard. The other day I crayed because I could not belive how lucky i was to get a second chance at being me again. For almost 7 years I have strugled with who I am and what I am doing in life. I went through some tough time in relationships as well as family issues.  When I was younger I was driven I had goals... I wanted to be a model. I wanted to be the poster that every boy hung up in his bedroom and some where along the way  I lost that spark I lost myself. Now I know my mom would say "oh you started dating so and so" and some ppl would say I was trying to fit in, but I think looking back not  what it come down to was me. For some reason I thought I needed to do this or do that to make other ppl happy. I was always worried about  everyone else being happy and being taken care of I forgot about me. I forgot about Number one..... me...  And no matter what I did for ppl I was always the second choice..... " oh there's a party here.... but it that does not work out we can call Angie.... I always was everyone's second choice even though I always put my friends before me. Once I started to look at what I needed a lot of my "friends" forgot I existed.  Don't get me wrong I love taking care of everyone and  that does not mean that I will not be here whenever anyone needs  me. I need to think about what I need, and what makes me happy. That is the only way I will be successful in my future endeavors. For the first time in 7 years I am feeling good about who I am,  what I am doing and  where I am going  in my life. I am thankful for that.

So I went shopping this weekend at Rue 21. I bought 3 pairs of pants because they were on sale  for 10 bucks each, size 13/14 thinking they would not fit me for a bit yet. Today I was getting dressed and was like what the helll I will try them on... THEY FIT!!! I know that my 16s were getting big but I did not think I was down to a jr 13/14 yet... The only thing is I have to hike them up cuz they are hip huggers and I dont lke hip huggers... not yet anyway... lol. I think putting those jeans on made my day today!
On tuesday I went to my 3 mounth check up with my DR. everything looks good. He said I am down to 192lbs. Feeling good. No hair loss. I do vomit a fair amout but still learning what I can eat.

           Well last night I went "drinking" for the first time since the surgery. Lol it took me two shots of Cuervo and two beers to me messed up... but the drunck did not last like it used to. I used to be able to drink almost a 5th of Cuervo before I was messed up. Anyway I only felt drunk for a few mins then the feelinng passed.... it was odd.... it was nice to go out with my friends and drink again though.  Even though I am a cheap date now..My boyfriend thinks it a little funny and like it only cost him 6 bucks to get me wated last night... lol .
