    I exercise now about 4 times a week.. It's funny I feel like I don't know what to do anymore.. I feel lost.. I need to pack away the scale and not think about it for a week or more!

    August 2013 Roll Call

    Hello August sleevers! I now want to tell my story! August 2009 I got real sick. I kept having un-resolving Pneumonia. I was admitted into the hospital and the ICU. After two lung biopsies and a 3 month awesome stay at Sutter Medical Hospital, I was finally given the cause of my vacation! I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis.. I was put on steroids for 6 months and went from 155 to 260 in 4 in a half months. I was chronically depressed. Overnight I couldn't fit any of my own clothes. I had to wear my husbands sweats until I was able to buy clothes. I never had to exercise or diet before so I didn't know how. I never had problems with weight or food.. That is not my story. I felt more helpless and hopeless than anyone. I couldn't think about diets for 2 years. I was on oxygen breathing at 67%. I had to use a walker all over again because of lying in a hospital bed for months! But don't feel bad for me I had a pimp out walker.. The first time I approached weight loss surgery I was denied twice. No surgeon would touch me.. They were concerned with my lungs. So I went diet crazy! I paid over thousands in the newest and fastest fad.. Nothing worked! I hated my life! To add insult to injury my doctors tell me I need to lose the weight because it as affecting my breathing.. And of course I have a sarcastic brain so I told them with a smile, "You gave me a pill to gain the weight now give me a pill to lose the weight!" So then my husband was transferred to Az. And to my surprise I found a doctor that was willing to perform weight loss surgery! I was scheduled August 28th 2013 and it was a success! I loss a total of 67lbs but been at a stall for the past 2 months! This sucks! But I have faith that I will get to my goal..

    Your hair fall out or thin because the body is lacking protein, so it start pulling it from the hair and nails.. You have to keep up with your protein intake! 60-70 grams of protein a day!
