I now weigh 166 pounds. I am getting closer to my goal weight. It is a lot slower now but that is okay.

Here it is July 6th and I weigh 172 pounds. It feels good for people to notice. I went to visit my family in WV the weekend of July 4th. They have not seen me since I had the surgery last year. My mom and dad were stunned! Mom said later that if my husband Joey had not got out of the car with me, she would not have known me. That was neat to hear. They were really surprised and happy for me. Mom even went right then and there and got her camera and took a picture of me so she could show everyone how I have changed. Wow! 

Wednesday was my one year anniversary of my RNY. I have went from 289 pounds to 182 pounds in one year! Wow! I feel great and have a wonderful new outlook on so many things. I feel loke the person that was hiding on the inside can finally come out and shine!

I now weight 182 pounds! I am getting closer to my goal weight! I get compliments all the time now. I have also been buying smaller clothes. That feels great! I now wear a large! I have not wore that since middle school! I never really saw the difference in myself, but now I am seeing it everytime I look in the mirror! I did the surgery for my health, but it does not hurt to feel good about myself for once!

The weight has not come off for a while. I have been having major eating issues. I have been eating too much stuff and not following the doctors directions. I am very ashamed of myself. I have not gained any weight but I have not been able to lose anymore either. I have become a frustrated person. I have so much more to lose and feel like it will never come off.

I know what I need to do to fix myself, but for some reason I am having a horrible time doing it. That makes me frustrated which makes me want to cheat even more. It is a very horrible cycle and I cannot seem to break though it. I feel like my weigh loss journey has ended.

I now weigh 195 pounds. I am happy with this weight. I have been down on myself alot about not losing as much weight as quickly as other friends of mine who have had RNY. I have decided to be happy with my own weight loss and what I have done.

I can do things I never could do before such as cross my legs. I can bend over whlie sitting in the car to reach something on the floor. I can keep up with my husband when walking in the stores, I even wear him out sometimes!

It is nice to start liking myself. I have a friend who had the surgery 2 years ago and her family has said she has become stuck on herself. I say, "Why not". We should be allowed to like ourselves for once in our lives.

I am happy with my weight loss whatever it ends up being in the end. It just feels so good to be healthy again.

I am now at 199 pounds! I have not been below 200 since middle school. I was in middle school 20 years ago! I am very happy with this milestone. On the way to my goal which is 140 pounds!

Finall, after two weeks of not losing anything, I am now 205 pounds! I quit weighing myself all the time. I was driving myself crazy. I now weigh less than my husband! I love it! It is nice to finally be losing weight again. I feel like doing what my smiley is doing and dancing!

I can't believe I'm stuck again. I am having a hard time losing more weight after the the first 75 pounds I have lost. I feel so frustrated. Plus I am losing a lot of hair. I have it on the shower floor, on the floor, on my clothes, everywhere. I was so happy with the surgery, now I am not so sure. I am tired of being fat. I want to start losing weight again. I t seems everytime I gat started losing weight, i get stuck. It is very frustrating. I feel like quitting.

On a lighter note, we love our new house. We are settled in now and finaaly have no more boxes lying around. That right now is the only thing that seems to be making me happy. Hopefully my mood will get better than it is right now.

It has been a while since I have been on the net. We bought a house and it took forever to finish everthing. We were with internet for a while as well. I now weigh 215 pounds. I am a teacher and everyone at my school has just been amazed at my weight loss so far. I am very happy right now.
