Well it's been a year and I look great!  I weigh 162lbs and size 12-14.  Still not excercising like I should.  Dr. called and said my vitamin D was low and now I should take 3 pills.  Oh my goodness I can barley get the two down.  I am not as faithful as I should with the protein drinks but still try to take all fo the vitamins. 

I am so thankful to God that he has allowed me to get smaller.  It is a blessing!

Well I am now 172 lbs size 12-14.  Although the doc thinks I should lose about 50 more pounds I look good right where I am.  I don't want to be too small.  My face is small and I just don't want it to get any smaller. 

I am still taking the vitamins and drinking the protein drinks although I sometimes fall off the boat.  All and all I am doing fine and I thank the Lord for the opportunity to be healthy.

measured myself today and I am 228.  Have not seen this in years!

Went to my first appointment after surgery on yesterday  I have lost 12.6 pds.  I was told by doctor that I could eat scallops and baked fished ---well at least to try but I have to add another protein shake to make three---I am going to try.  I ate salmon and actaully kept it down and it was delicious!  I weigh 148! 

I am looking forward to this new journey.  The day of surgery I was 257 with the boot on( I have a broken ankle).  I took this surgey to help with a bad back---doctor won't let me skip, hop run,etc.  I get steriods shots every three to four months which adds 10-15 pounds each time.  Go to physical therapy about three or four times a year and taken medication.  All of this has been going on for over 20 years after I was hit by truck in automobile accident.  After being diagnose with onset diabetes I felt that maybe I should consider the surgery.  The doctors had been talking to me about this surgery for over five years, they now felt that it would help with the back and diabetes.   So here I am.

Well it  has been almost a week since I took the surgery.  I am only sore when I caugh. I am only up to about 58 oz of liquids and that include two potein shakes!  I put on a shirt yesterday for church that I had not worn in a year and it fit perfectly.  I could tell I was losing weight.  I have decided not to weigh myself until I get to the doctors.

I have a healing broken ankle and therefore it hard for me to walk this gas off!  I return to the othpedic surgeon on Thursday--maybe he will give me persmission to walk.  I could use some good news to help with the gas.
