New day...

First off I wanna say thanks to the peeps that has responded back with inspiring words...and you guys are right. maybe I beat myself up to much and not give myself enough credit for the lbs that I have lost.. but one thing I no.. is that I will not give up.. I have in the past but now i realize that if I do.. everything that I have worked hard for will just go down the drain... plus this DAM surgery WASNT cheap!! LOL.. so now I have finally got up the courage to post my pics.. sadly to say I am a lil ashamed of my weight.. if you look at the pic with me and my siblings u can tell which one I am.. the one in the middle is my baby sis.. and Im a lil worried for her cuz she is starting to gain weight.. my main concern is her becoming a diabetic like me, since it runs in our family..my other sister besides the baby is actually our OLDEST sister.. yet she is the smallest out of all of us.. DAM HER!! lol.. im still trying to figure out what went wrong with us two..lol

 

After being on this site and reading everyones success story I HAVE TRULY made up my mind.. I have about 40 lbs to go..and Im not giving up.. Its time to take it SERIOUS!! I t has been a year now after my surgery and yet only down 34 lbs... I will keep ya'll updated with my weight and hopefully they are all good news!!!

When I read your blog, it seems as if I am talking we have so much in common!!! with sisters and being diabetic and all that. Anyway, I just had mine done a week ago and only yesterday I cheated and today is a NEW DAY for me too. I have lost about 10 pounds and need to lose another 50. Good Luck and take one day at a time.

It would be great to get all the support from people in the same situation so please stay in touch and lets update each other from time to time. Today I substituted a very light squash soup (added more water ) to those nasty shakes! OH it was so good and only 100 calories a cup. I am excited about starting my long walks again this weekend. Hope you have a great weekend. By the way, no one not even my sisters know about my LB so there you go now for the first time in my life I have a secret !!
