Slow but sure

Oct 11, 2012

Today is a day that I started to reflect on how things are going in my life. The weight loss has been slow and steady. I know that I tend to snack on nuts when I really shouldn't . It is so hard to change what our mind is telling us. So far since I have had this surgery I eat much healthier and  I feel tons better. I can see in the scale as well as my body that I am losing the weight. I know that once I get to my goal weight it will be my effort to keep it their. I have been walking four miles a day and I have had a complete physcial which they tell me everything looks great. So I am happy with that. Each day when I get up I decide that its a new day and make the most of it. Their are others that are struggling and in much worse shape than I am. I keep all of those in my prayers.
I am sure that we all are supporting each other by just being here in our words of encouragement. My new life has given me a reason to get up each day and face all of my struggles with the knowledge that I will get through it and be a better person for it. Glad to know that we have our friends on line as well as some that are closer. I hope that all are getting to a better place in their life.
This is a self reflection of where I came from and where I am headed and to be the best person to myself first then whatever I can do to help others and thankful that I can.

A feel good day today.

Jul 26, 2012

It has been about five weeks since surgery and I am pretty much getting back to I would say old self but not now it is about the new me. I am taking one day at a time and learning to try and eat heathy and drink and excerise like I am supposed to. I have been walking two miles a day or either try and do yoga or aerobics to try and break up the routine. I am  back at work and trying to make all things work, at work and home is challenging at times. I don't know how some folks do it.
My weight  has been a steady decline which I am fine with it is better that going up. I say I did not gain all this weight in one day and I'm not gonna lose it in a day either.
My true end goal is to be health and I think being healthy will make me happy.  I hope all folks that are on this journey are having sucess. Just wanted to feel good about my sucess so far and wanted to share with others a well.

Another day in the new life

Jun 29, 2012

Well it has been a week and 1/2 since my surgery. Now quiet as sore or as black and blue as I have been. I walked two miles today and will be so glad when I get off this liquid phase. I am not really hungry but will try and get some protein down because I don't want to lose the hair or the muscle. I have lost close to 20 lbs so far.

Just getting back

Jun 25, 2012

Well it has been six very long days since the surgery.I will not lie to anyone it has been tough. I think what has made it so hard is I have had two surgerys in three months and one top of that I have a bladder infection which makes it that much worse. I finally made myself get dressed put the face together and do some walking this morning. I am still tired but beginning to feel a little better.
