6month update
May 14, 2007
I moved from Sunnyvale to my hometown Woodland, Ca. Thats why i havent attended anymore Dr. Leghas support groups. My 6 month update....I have lost 69 lbs I was 267 when I started the journey. I am so happy I did it. No regrets!. It is hard for me to take the horse calcium pills..but I do. I can eat a little bit more, but Im so scared of going back that I always stop at the first sign of feeling full! I have become a protien shake guru. My faves are
2 tsp instant expresso
1 cup cold skim milk
ice
sugar free hazelnut syrup
3 scoops Any Whey protien powder
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 banana
1/2 cup orang juice w/ calcium
1 cup plain yogurt
3 scoops anywhey protein powder
lots of ice
both of these make 2 servings to sip on for an hour or 2. i save one in the freezer for the next day.
How are you doing out there?

Getting Ready
Nov 08, 2006
So I'm getting ready. Adam is getting me the Isopure drink we found it cheaper here at Vitamin SHoppe and he bought me a nice recliner yesterday. He cant wait to work out with his hot latina!! Hot is not a word I would ever use to describe myself. more like Porky Latina. Ok no negative thoughts!! I should Sharpie that on my forehead.FYI drink to Isopure ice cold or else it tastes like ass smell or something nastily similar!!
I bought my sublingual B-12,
now I need to find a smallish calcium pill. Those are always huge!
I bought my soups, Smart water, herbal teas, sugar free jellos. This friday I am making a small turkey dinner for my little family as I won't be eating the traditional goodies at Moms this year. Which is fine, because last yeat at this time I also fore-went goodies at thanskgiving, xmas and newyears beacuse I thought I was having my surgery in Feb. But man..I want one slice of my home made pumpkin cheesecake and turkey with trader joes orange-cranberry sauce!
Ok enough about food. Because in 5 days I'm giving it all up for fitness and happiness!!
Approved!! Finally!

I was supposed to have my RnY last Feb 2006, but insurance made me jump more unessary loops. I was heart broken at first. I had already bagged up the fat clothes. set up goals for myself...had mnay mnay wishful thought a of a Thin summer..a summer Ive been waiting to enjoy for more than 13 years! So this time i told myself not to be so emotional and if it doesnt happen, welllll back to the drawing board, not to gain gain gain but lose lose lose.
I am here now! Surgery on Monday Nov 13th. I am so excited and happy. My only fear is not waking up to see my babies..but thats everyones fear in any surgery. But i know Adam will tel them, I had to do this. I had to try. I dont fear pain and I definetly dont fear loss of food, chocolate, coffee, evil diet pepsi..<>> If I didnt try, I would never know if I could be a better healthy mom, a happy wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend. I want confidence! I want a bike! I want to swim! I want to backpack. I have gear from 1997 brand new that Ive hardly ever used.I want great sex! I want to NOT sit on the bench at the park, but run around and play with Raven and Rowan. Play and not get tired after 5 minutes. I want o have clear skin! and I dont want diabetes. Ever.
