  6. Down 36 pounds now since one week preop 4/4/14. Was hoping for more but being realistic the 36lbs down is pretty good. I would love to be out of the 300s by the end of June. I'm optimistic but, can it be done?

  10. Haven't stepped on the scale all week! Love not knowing and relying on how clothes fit.

    1. relief57

      relief57

      I weigh in regularly just to keep me somewhat on track but use the Friday weight in as the final word for the week. I love the fact that my clothes sometimes tell a different story then the scale.

  13. I GOT A JOB through October!!! Yeah, He truly loves me. Thank you Jesus!

  14. had my first fill on Friday. Don't think it went too well. Dr. wanted me to drink water to make sure it went down while he made adjustments. I had really hard burps forming which distracted from my ability to sense if the water was going down. Or maybe I was just nervous about the process. not sure how many cc I got. Dr. says if there is not weight loss by the end of the week we'll try again.

  15. Well tomorrow is the day that I find out if I still have a job. This weekend was not pleasant because all I have been thinking about is that. Everything was riding on my manager, which got demoted, and her decision will sway what they do with me. Usually I would run for the border (Taco Bell) but not with 'baby' :)

  19. Made it to the gym yesterday after missing a whole week due to having a stressful work week. My body was hollering back at me during and after my workout, however, I have great clarity of thought since going and will push myself to go when I need it the most. ~during stress~

      I know right, once you get past that why am I doing this stage it gets good. I'm trying to build up stamina for the elliptical machine. I try to go daily but hasn't worked out. I wanted to increase the amount of time each time. started to stop at 10 minutes but pushed to 15. glad i did.

  20. So nice to go out and have an amazing day with my family….eat like a normal person…not worry if Im the heaviest in the room and really feel good in my own skin…who knew this day would ever come? Life is great!

  21. Pre-admission test on the 28th. June 16 is right around the corner!

      Bladefox, don't sell yourself short. They were fortunate to have you and so will the next company should that be the case. when a door closes it could be the Creator's way of pointing you toward bigger and better opportunities. After all you sold them on at least trying to keep you. From what you've posted before about your manager, she's just bidding time till she can find something better if the company's smart they hold onto you and wait her out to give you your job back. Never the less bank on the skills you've already developed and put your feelers out there. Once again, you've got this.....

      You should have gone down about three sizes now.But 60lbs is a great accomplishment. gowalking made a good point our mind has to catch up with the reality of whats actually happening.
