Month 4
Jun 30, 2008
Sorry I have not been on and I know that this post is almost a month late, but for month four I have lost 58 lbs. That is wonderful! I'm so excited. This month my weight loss has really slowed down, but that is OK it seems that I lose clothes sizes when I'm not losing weight. So sorry to all out there that I have not been writing, I'll write more when my life doesn't seem so hectic, but it is good to be busy!
Month 3!!
May 08, 2008
I have been busy this month, I just got back from training for my new position at the bank. I was away from home for 4 days though it feels longer! I had a trajedy this month also, I lost my uncle in a motorcycle accident. So things have been very hard and I definitly have not been concentrating on myself personally. So with the new job and funerals and family I feel still like I'm living someone elses life. I even looked in the mirror as I was getting out of the shower the other day and saw my scars and it gave me a jolt to remember that I did have surgery and it was not long ago and I need to be eating healthy and slow and exercising. So my focus this coming month is to get back on track and try to get my life going in the direction I want it to go. Which includes my new career, spend time with family and friends, be active, keep my life organized, eat well. So I guess I better get busy!! So anyway I have now lost a total of 46lbs!
Trying
Apr 15, 2008
Here lately I feel like the harder I try at something the less I can accomplish. I have been living more actively and organizing things, it just seems that the more I get done the more there is to do. So I keep telling myself that it is a good thing and life will always be this way. I don't know why I feel the need to have everything done so that I can stop. Well none of this makes sense so I'll just move on. I have been eating well, around 800 cal a day, my weight hasn't moved in a few days which is fine because I do weigh everyday. I know I shouldn't, but even if it doesn't go down I feel reassured that I'm not gaining. I start my new job on Monday and I can't wait I'm so excited!! My last day at this job is Thursday and then I go on a horse weekend with the girls! We'll have so much fun riding and camping so that will be a good start for next week. Kurt, my son, started baseball a couple of weeks ago and I hope that the weather starts to warm up so that going to games and practices will be a little more enjoyable. So I am going to walk while he plays, I also need to start in on the yard work because there is a lot to do and a lot to catch up on from the winter. I also have some baby chicks this year and I hope to get them outside soon and we'll have fresh eggs later on this year which I'm happy about. So sorry for the rambling, but sometimes you just need to let it all out and now I feel better!! If anyone reads this I appologize to you for the boredom and any confusion! Some times my mind just has no rhyme or reason to it!
Two months!!
Apr 07, 2008
So here I am two months out from surgery and 37lbs down!
I am also below the 200 mark which is very exciting and down a pants size. All things are looking up I have a new job I'll be starting on the 21st! I have been able to mount my horse from the ground instead of a mounting block!!!! So all in all the first two months have been very good I can't wait to see what happens in the months to come!

Here's the ticker!!

Whoo hoo figured outhe the ticker!!!
I think
Almost two months out and dropped a pants size!
Mar 24, 2008
I went and bought my first pair of size 18 pants in a couple of years and that was really nice. Now those jeans that I just bought last week are already getting loose. Which is great, but I guess I should wait to buy pants until I can go down two sizes so I can save some money. I guess I can always go to Savers it just takes a while to find what you need (really need to be in the mood for shopping!).
One month out!
Mar 11, 2008
As of the 7th of March I lost 25lbs!!!
And as of today I have lost 26lbs!!! I'm so happy about my weight loss and I can feel my clothes are loose. I am still having trouble with my image though. I guess I just had in my mind that after surgery I would be thinner and healthy. Well I will, but obviously it'll take time and effort. So anyway I still am proud of my weight loss!!

I have now lost 20 lbs and it's not been quite a month yet!!!!
It'll be a month on Friday so I'll keep exercising and eating taking vitamins. Boy is it hard to remember those!! I'm just not a medicine taker so it's hard for me to think about it all the time, but I'm working on it!!

Light at the end of the tunnel

Now that I am able to drink more fluids it's not so hard to follow the full liquid diet and I feel much better. More like my old self!
So anyway I just thought I would post and let everyone know that my attitude is more upbeat everyday and I'm finally geting into the groove of having a eating/drinking schedule!
