OH No here we go....

Oct 19, 2012

Word to the wise.....DO NOT LEAVE THE OH Family.....so, what had happened was.....I got comfortable.  Look at my post three years since I've been "home" really????? Well I have as they say "black-slid" TREMENDOUSLY so I am now buckling down and back to the basics. 

I gained wait - A LOT - and know I am experiencing all of my ORIGINAL problems.  Now with me being in an Asthma downfall I am using daily prednisone - 10 mg - therefore weight, weight and more weight.  I've can consume more food than I should - I went to the doctor and my pouch is intact therefore its not "him" it's me.....

What I can tell you is my mentality is correct now so I am SLOWLY getting back to basics; something as simple as I do not drink water.  I can eat anything (ANYTHING) so I am mentally blocking MOST things.....

If any support person is in the Orlando/Clermont area I'd love a support loser to make me be accountable....

I will be a loser again - LOVE Y'all

Oh No... Here We Go!!!

Oct 06, 2009

October 6, 2009 - Well guys, truth be told I currently weigh 215 - and the excuse is... Nasal Polyps AGAIN.  In an attempt to control my Asthma outbreaks I have been taking prednisone DAILY since March or so (when the original surgery was scheduled)  The doctor prescribed 10 mg per day.... SO I have had the opportunity to GAIN 45 pounds or so....

I went onto bariatric advantage and purchased some bariatric meals.  I plan on re-training my tool and getting back on track... Wish me luck, my surgery was rescheduled for Friday October 9th... I will be able to get OFF of this prednisone... I need ya'll's help so hit me up and keep me in your prayers.... in an attempt to have my surgery before my lungs collapsed and I was unable to go forward - hence the overdose on the predinsone....

Oh Well -

39 and holding

Sep 02, 2009

September 2, 2009 - Well tomorrow is my 39th birthday... I currently weigh 206... OH NO!!@!  I am going on LIQUIDS.....  I ordered some meal replacements from Bariatric Advantage and started back going to get my B-12 shots....  

MESSAGE TO ALL - don't get SO COMFORTABLE....  I stopped tracking my meals and became comfortable with my tool... NOW UNDER MUCH DURESS.... I am re-training myself.  Guess what even though I eat small portions, it is o.k. to NOT eat everything.  It's o.k. to LEAVE food on your plate. 

I bought two large boxes of Saran Wrap - Ms. Teena, I started last night.... interesting...

What's the plan?  60 pounds or BUST.   No time line required just a goal...   Believe it or not I can feel the difference on the extra weight... yes it has been THREE (3) years since I Had RNY I've managed to regain a total of 31 pound BUT these extra pounds FEEL LIKE HELL.... I will survive I am not discouraged just trying to re-train my mind....

The way things go...

May 31, 2009

May 31, 2009 - Unbeknown to me, I married a man who is more concerned about my PHYSICAL appearance than any thing else in my life.  Long story short, in the two plus years since I've had the gastric bypass, I have gained back approx. 20 pounds.  I currently weight 190.  We have just spent the majority if the morning in "negotiation" about the fact that I have changed.  He is stating that he does not wish to remain in a relationship with me if I am going to fail to maintain my weight.... In his opinion "physical appearance" is the most important thing to a man.  He is stating that if I am not going to improve my physical appearance than I am causing our relationship to fail....

My answer to this:  Kiss my (well use your imagination).  Today is no different from when I was a plus size princess.  I have never lived by any one elses rules.  I am happy, healthy and healed.... I do not need a MAN not even this man in my life to try to cause me to have self esteem issues.... I have run into someone who has self esteem issues and I am about to run like hell to ensure that he does NO MORE HARM...

Am I crazy for wanting to be comfortable for who I am?  Does he have a valid point?  There is no such thing as for better or worse?  Trust me even the worst is better....  I am 38 years old... A mother... I do not wish to look like a porn star.  I am a sophisticated lady, not a tramp... (I say this because this husband is disappointed that I did not take on this type of appearance - he wanted breast enhanchments - for me to dress like a pro when we are in public etc...)  O.K. this is how it goes, maybe during pillow talk I would say wow, I wouldn't mind "firming-up" my breast - this did not mean make me an appointment (mind you since it is not a coverable insurance expense - we cannot afford it)...Now I am being accused of not keeping promises because I stated that I wanted a "hot - phine as hell body"....

I am angry BUT not at him, more so at myself... I should have known that he stated around for the wrong reason...  I do not need him and for my mental stability, I will do the right thing to turn this situation around.  As I type this he is upstairs... because we have been together for close to seven years - I know him.  I would expect for him to move out or be gone completely by the time I return from the store and the other errands that I have to run..., We have been down this road before, and I have tried to make it work... this time I refuse to keep changing... You cannot change others that's why as I said.  I am HAPPY with who I am...

And the beat goes on...

Mar 20, 2009

March 20, 2009 - All is well, I actually do not have anything to report... Just wanted to stop by and let everyone know that I am maintaining....

My asthma was not related to my weight (I am allergic to the world) I have had to take predinosone to survive so therefore I am maintaining a solid 180 pounds... I have pledge to start walking to maintain my weight.  The only problem is that I keep stating that it is going to be "next" Sunday - you know so I can start a "fresh" week.... I promise - soon... I do not want to bust out of my closet full of size 12's....

Just a thought

Jan 14, 2009

January 14, 2009 - I think that I am going to try the 5-day pouch test... I am certain that I am able to eat a hugh amount.... I can eat at least a half (or more) of a frozen dinner.... So at some times I think that I am eating too much, but I only eat maybe twice, three times daily.  I still eat pretty healthy but I could definetly benefit from becoming more structured.  I need to find that support system again....

I haven't really gained too much (four pounds) since September.... but I am trying to maintain at least a comfortable weight of no more than 170 (150 and I'd lose my mind).  So I am trying to wrap my mind around the thought of getting starting losing the weight and maintaining.... hmmm

NEW PHOTO'S

Jan 09, 2009

 

January 9, 2008 - I know that I put these photos in my album but I really haven't taken any new photos.  Shawn and I are doing AWESOME.  I am an advocate for counseling, so with the help of prayers, friends and LOVING Family - all has been well..  Keep us in ya'll prayer's!

My weight is hovering at 175.  I am going to join weight watchers to support my daughter's weight loss efforts.  I could actually lose at least 25 more pounds... I am so in LOVE with me that it doesn't bother me either way; however I want my daughter to give it a try... She is a SOLID, NOT FAT But at least 190/200 - she is voluptuous - this weight is solid and she has the attitude to match it... It's just that I want for her to not have problems in the years ahead of her.  She does not have any weight related issues, however I know that she'd be in a better overall position if she'd lose just a couple pounds... So we are going to go as a team...
