Yahhh i am at 108 down. I actually jumped ont he scale this mornign and it said 250, but i jumped back on it and it said 252. I am ok with 252 not getting too excited, cause it means 108 down. Tomorrow maybe it will say 250 for sure. LOL

Well i guess i should be blogging and keeping track. Just one more thing to do. But i actually should keep track to look back at this wonderful journey.
I am now 4 months post op- and down 92 lbs. 62 lbs of it is from March 16 to now. YAhhh me.
I have been doing good with my meals.
Usual day is
B-yogurt, berries, granola
Sn-fruit or cheese and crackers
L-cheese and crackers or cottage cheese and pinaplle or tuna and crackers
S-fish or chicken with carb of pototoe or rice and 2 vegs, grilled or steamed.
Sn-yogurt berries, or ff fudgcycle.
Vitamin Prenatal daily.
Must take calcium and vit d. always forget.
Still struggle with wild crawings and mood swings that make me want to eat eat eat. Have to redirect myself and get it out of my head. This sometimes comes with bouts of wanting to cry as i am stuggling with cravings and emotions. Redirct. redirect.
Otherwise, feeling good, in a size 2x now. Almost can fit into a pair of jeans size 20. WOW, cant believe that. Its been 20 years since i have been this size. I have gone thru my close now twice. Got rid of 30, 28, 26, 24. I still have some of 24/26 and now when i wear them i am feeling so discouraged because they are loose and feel frumpy on me. Hell, i want to look good and the 22 fit me better. So just get rid of the damn clothes. (it is a hard thing to do) I am going shopping again this weekend and well, should buy a few more and just get rid of the bigger clothes. I will do that this weekend.
I am a bit discouraged because i want to work out at the gym, i joined and ws going to do treadmill, bike and upper arm excersise, but i cant until September when doc give ok that i can go back. GRRR.
Its hard for me to get up and go for a walk. I should do that thou. I need excersise.
Well enough blogging for me.
I will keep in touch.

Down 50 from surgery. Yes. Wow. I am impressed with myself, and feel so damn good!
I am in a size 22 now, not a 30/32. I cant wait to get to 250, which is my next mini goal.

I have to take a picture tonight for 3 month pic.

Bloggy bloggy blog! today was a great day of eating. Then i came home had pancakes and 3 links of sausage. It was good thou, but i knew i shouldnt have. Went out tonight, to friends and she had made squares. I wanted to say no, but i couldnt. damn i could have eaten the whole plate but i didn't. I ate ONLY 2. Shouldnt have had 2, but i did, and dont want to beat myself up. I did good all day long. I am proud thou, did go for a walk thou with hubby. once around the cemetary. I am going to count the days, the walks and the food. GOOD GIRL!

Blog it baby blog it! I want to blog everyday. I want to write everything. My source of relief, venting and celebrating! The good the bad and the ugly! I am going to do this a a source to help me with weight loss forever! YOU GO GIRL!
Feeling great. Went to nurse and dietician on friday (last minute call in) and i have been doing good on my eating. I am proud to say i have not been snacking at night. My biggest time of the day where i wanted to eat eat eat. Chocolate and chips and pop. Now i havent even thought about them. I feel better. And since Christmas i have lost 6 pounds. WHOO HOOO! Of course i got weighed ont he day i started my period, so i even feel better since i bloated. So i have a goal now to be down another 6 (hey another 5 and im under 350 ) and then by Feb 10 when i finally get to see and meet DR. REED. I am excited i finally got the appt and get to see him knowing it will be about 3 weeks after that for surgery. YAHH. Damn i want to loose weight. I am getting started on my "GOOD" foods and have dejunked my pantry. Its not so bad after all. This will help me and hubby who already has only a third of his stomach due to cancer so we will be eating together right! I am excited for that! Both of us eating what we should be eating!
Yahh baby!

Finally done all tests! Its only been going on since September. I did the sleep test follow up last night, then went to work afterwards. I had an h plyori test done dec 31. Now i cant wait to get a phone call mid January for a doc appt with Dr. Reed. Now i am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel or should i say to the fun bus coming to get me to take me on my journey. I am excited, scared and cant wait. I will get in here daily and start blogging on what is going on with me. As excited and scared as i am, it will help! Thanks for all the good posts!

One week till my 2nd nurse appt. I am excited and scared that i wont be ready. I had h plylori test and had to go on antibiotics for a week. I hope its all cleared. I have to go again the end of dec. again. Then i went for sleep study, says i dont need cpap machine that i only have apnea when i am on my back which is 24% of the night, and then i dont do it often. But doc might want to have it temporary while in recovery. Will have to see what happens Wednesday when i go to visit.
I am happy my friend billiegirl67 is doing so well. Proud of ya girl. Wait for me, i wanna board the train!!!!!!!! *SMILE*

Been on and off sick lately. Havent been in the mood to write here. I keep trying to eat right and it works, i am eating less, but not less enough. With this cold/flu, i can say i havent wanted to eat much, which is a good thing. 2 more weeks and i see the nurse and dietician. I have H pylori, and finished the meds today. In between all this i have viral infeciton and an outer and inner ear infection which hurts. I am down. It still hurts and meds are done. When i visit nurse, i will still need another upper gi, to check to see if h pylori gone. So ughhhhh. Not feeling good about that..a delay! Yikes. i wish it all could have been done by the 16th. ole well! We will see. Cross your fingers.

 I walked again. YAHH! 3 nights in a row. Thats great for me. I had my upper GI today. What a treat that was!! YUM! UGHHG! But now all my tests are done and im on the road again. One more month and im back to the nurse/dietican. YAhoooo!
