5 months before surgery with my mom and dad

I don't have a whole lot to write about really ...I am over 1/2 the person I was a year and a half ago..... kinda cool and sad, lol if you think about it...

Soooo, after 6 months of not doing my walking, I FINALLY got back into the groove today. Prior to having my tumor surgery in 7/07, I was up to 6 miles a day. It was during that time, I felt the most proud of my self...I loved my self, b/c I had stuck to something for several months-even when I wasn't seeing improvements-I knew they would show.....I had so much going on since then that I just didn't have time to do the workout..... But I am home from Baylor and no agenda at home basically, so here I am.....
I'm starting off with 2 miles a day for a week. I don't want to rush into it..then progress back up to where I was before....
I am hoping to reach my goal weight in time for summer...I know I can do it..I don't have to much more to lose..sometimes I gotta kick my self it the butt to get started!!

so, it really botherd me throughout the day that i only did two-knowing i could do 6..lol....So, as my ADD mind wondered today, I went ahead and got two more miles in tonight~

Heres some of my newest pictures! Me, all dolled up of course,lol...me, maxin and relaxin on my bed and Leslie and I strikin our pose

Here is my before and Now pic side by side... -160'ish pounds ---so what, I love black

Hello  well, I havent written anything on this site in awhile..I have had a good bit of stuff going on lately..Not a whole lot about me to tell- but my dad had a liver transplant on 8/12..He is still in ft worth... I go up there every other week for a week-so I dont get a lot of computer time anymore..... I've been helping out a lot with him and then my mom got sick and was in the hospital for almost a week...my ole folks keep my pretty busy I guess

As far as I go, I am still losing weight..It is going kinda slow But Im losing... When I had my tumor surgery back In july, I had to quit my walking-that I was doing so good .... and I have yet to get back into that routine.... Ive just had so much to juggle and honestly, havent had the desire to want to. .... 
I have about 30 something more pounds- Im sure I could stand to lose more than that-- but I have my own goal to get to and I will work towards that one.... Then I shall see how comfortable I am with myself and go from there.  It has been a year and three months since I had surgery.... I am a lot more happier now and feel a lot better about myself--no regrets.  Sometimes I push myself and try stuff I shouldnt...or I DO eat the stuff I shouldnt just because I know I can handle it..... Old habits are hard to break I guess..... I still love my junk food, and Im still a grazer. I can eat  a candy bar- maybe not every bite right then- but I eat it...No, thats not good- and yes I remember why I had my surgery---but Im gonna live life to, ya know? Im not gonna crawl in a box and shelter myself....I have the stuff I enjoy in moderation I guess you can say.... and im sure thats why I havent lost faster than what I have when other people have.......... but needless to say 160 pounds is a good damn bit for a little over a year.....  
ANYHOW, I will update more later on....

I went yesterday to get weiged by my family dr and she compared my weight from when I 1st came to her  @ the end of April to now and I have lost 48lbs! super cool huh!!!!   new BMI of 32 !!!
