Well another day has gone and I made it through a movie without eating popcorn or drinking pop... I just brought in my protein bar... Got to watch NEw Moon. and yes it was awesome... We go to a theatre that is 2.5 hrs away from home. So I am even prouder of myself because I did not eat any fast food. And yes there was temptation huge my kids and hubby eat at Burger King so I just pulled out another protein bar... I am feeling kind of sick today.. Sneezing and upset tummy.. I want to be hea
So I have officially learned why I did not want a bunch of people knowing about my surgery or people who did not support me. I had a friend call to tell me that one of my past co-workers is planning to go on a diet the same day I have surgery to supposedly prove to me that I can lose the weight with discipline. I am kind of feeling pretty upset about this.. Also this co-worker was stating I was getting my stomach stapled. I wish that before people opened their mouths they would gather all th
Well all is well. Definatley (sp) feeling tired and week today.. I may actually go for a nap... I did get our travel trailer cleaned out as we are trying to sell it so that we can pay part of my surgery off. I so wish our medical covered this procedure or insurance.

I am actually craving healthy foods right now like chicken breast

I have six children aged 5-10 so my friend is coming over to help with the kids and my hubby has 5 days off so he will be here to also help..   I have also been doing a lot of thinking and when I eat something now I am like wow this is probably the last time I eat this. I have also been looking into exercise plans... Wow a

He thought for my weight it should be different.. Two more steps completed... Now I have the big consult tomorrow. I also have sick six kids, a sick dog and a sick hubby.. So much fun LOL... It will get better...
I officially have my consult date set-up for wednesday nov 4. I am kind of nervous... The person I spoke with said that I can be in for surgery by the end of the month as long as everything goes smoothly. I had a set back with the financing but should know by tomorrow that it is a go. I also have a battery of blood work that needs done and an ekg needs to be done tomorrow.... Fun stuff.... I meet with a pychologist on wednesday also... That makes me really nervous.. I believe I am ready f
