Well I haven't been on in awhile. Its been a crazy time in my life. I have gained alot of weight. I haven't weighed myself as of lately. But the last time I weighed I was at 305 lbs. And I know I am more since then. I don't know where to start to lose the weight. And I think its affecting my heart again. So I have to seriously find out what to do. My 4 year anniversary is in July. And I feel like a failure. I have been trying to get pregnant. I was on clomid for 4 or 5 rounds. And I didn't get pregnant that way. So I was supposed to go in and do the IUI ( I think that what it was) I had started the clomid round and had called to schedule the procedure and the doctor's nurse told me he wasn't going to do it. He wants to send me to another docotor but he didn't tell me why. It broke my heart but I tried to stay positive and schedule the appt and was ready to go but my husband's job didn't let him off in time. So now I have to wait and reschedule again. I've just been down and frustrated. And it seems like I can't get ahead. If anyone has any advice on getting back on track I would greatly appreciate it. Hopefully I will get back to being happy again.

Well today I went for my 3 year check up with Dr Stewart. It had been awhile since I seen him. He has a new office and a beard. I was nervous about weighing in because I knew I had gained weight but I weighed less than I thought. When the scale said 271.5 I wanted to do a dance. I know some people think that isn't that great. But before I had the surgery I weighed 450 lbs. So I have lost a total of 178.5 lbs. I have went from wearing a size 8xl to a 2x (sometimes 1x). Im going to drop down to 250 because I know I can do it because I did it last year before I got pregnant. Last year was a bad year and this year hasn't been that great. But I'm going to make 2009 better year. I have a mild anemia and Dr Stewart said my calcium level was a little low so he gave me a prescription for Vitamin D to take weekly. Well hopefully i will post more later. Good Luck to everyone

Well im still gaining weight. when I weighed myself this morning I was at 275. I guess Im letting the stress of life get to me. I have been eating more than usually and unhealthy at that. I go my yearly check up on the 21st. And I already know its not going to be good. Im going to ask my doc for some suggestions. I was going to try and put myself on a strict diet and my body went crazy. I was getting flushed and sick. I need to exercise. I was riding my stationary bike and was doing good. But I slacked off because it needs batteries to operate and I haven't went to buy any yet. Well I guess that is all for now. Will blog more later.

Well since I last updated I have gained 20lbs. In April I had a myectomy. They were only able to remove a few fibroids or they would of had to give me a hysterectomy. My husband bought me a stationary bike. I have been trying to ride it for a mile every other day. Hopefully I will get back on track and lose the weight.

Well Happy New Year!!! I hadn't realized I hadn't osted anything since August. Since my last post my body seems to be back to normal. I have a cold that is about it. I haven't been back to see my surgeon in awhile because of scheduling conflict. Hopefully I will get to make it to my 3 year check up. I have been babysitting my little cousin he is 6 months old. He keeps me busy. My husband and I want to try again to have a child. My husband did a buffalo wing eating contest and came in second on his team which was a good thing. I am adding some new pics I have took like 2 months ago hopefully I will take more new pics soon.

Well my body is starting to feel a little better. Hopefully my iron level will get to its normal level soon. I have to make my appt for my yearly WLS check up. It was supposed to be done in July but I was having all the issues then. My husband wants us to look into adoption. But I don't think we will be able to. So hopefully we will get pregnant again in the future. School is about to start soon. I am adding my photos of me when I was pregnant to my photos and of my neice, nephew, lil bro and cousin. Well I will hopefully have more to write later.

Well tomorrow it will be 2 weeks since I had my second D&C. I went to my W.I.C appt the other day and I weighed 249lbs. But I found out that I was very anemic. I didn't know anemia was causing my headaches. I don't understand how I am anemic I have been take my prenatal vitamins and an extra iron tablet. They told me to try and eat more iron. To treat food like medicine to even eat when I'm not hungry. I'm going to discuss it with my OB/Gyn tomorrow. I need to still do my 1 year check up with Dr Stewart. It should of been done last month but with the miscarriage and the D&C I just couldn't do it. I'm going to try and schedule it next month. Yesterday my husband found out he has to have surgery to have a mass on his adrenal gland removed. It seems like when it rains it pours. But all I can do is pray everything will get better.

Well this week has been a busy week for me. I went to see my fertility specialist and he told me he thinks my miscarriage was due to my cervix. That if I get pregnant again I will need a stitch. WHile at his office he did an ultrasound and found there was still placenta in my uterus which he was concerned about. He called my Ob/gyn and told him I need to have another d&c asap. So I had it done yesterday. ANd today I am going to rest up. I got weighed yesterday and weighed 249. Which made me happy to know. It proved I need a new scale at home. Now I'm going to focus on what I want to go back to school to for. Well I will right more later.

Well it has been 2 years since I had my WLS. I weighed myself on my scale at home and was shocked by my weight. It said I weighed 243lbs. My goal weight was 248. So all in total I have lost 205lbs. It might changed when I go to my doctor appts though for some reason the doctors scale and my scale never agree at times. I usually weigh less at the doctor's office. Either way I am happy with my achievement. ANd I plan on losing more weight.

Unfortunately, Last Sunday 07-01-07 I went into early labor and miscarried the baby. This week has been a rough week for me. I am going to counselling. And if I want to try and get pregnant again I will need to have a lot of testing done first since this is my 3rd miscarriage. I have been trying to keep my hopes up. My husband has been a great support this week. Hopefully my future will hold children in it.
