    April '09 Bunnies...2 Year Bandiversary!

    Wow, it's been FOREVER since I've posted. Life is so busy! and FUN! I'm down from 322 (or 327 i don't remember) and a size 28 jeans and 30 top into a size 12 jeans and a large top at 212.2lbs! I've lost So over 110lbs lost so far. I have another 20-30 to go before I start to consider reconstructive surgery. This is the most amazing thing ever! I just eased into a 12 so most of my clothes are currently 14's but I can't wear them w/o belt. a belt? me? for a purpose not for fashion? would have NEVER believed that!! I started my personal business with The Pampered Chef and am so geeked at the ways that it is allowing me to help others making wise food choices and simplifies cooking for me. I've gotten out of the gym habit w/summer and the weather but 'typically' I spend 90 minutes at the gym 5 days a week and LOVE it. another something I would have never beleived.

    Non Scale Victories!

    i just took my belt and put in another hole w/a knife in the kitchen. it was pretty funny but my belt was too big so i went ahead and measured the space between holes and added another the right spacing away, i can now fasten it and the leftover is long enough to tuck under the belt loop ON THE OTHER SIDE!

    Friday Weigh Ins

    i am down this week. weighed myself on friday and was 293.4 which is super exciting after sitting around 297 for weeks and weeks and weeks! I am hoping to get into the 280's soon.

    Non Scale Victories!

    Still haven't stepped on the scale, the further I get away from having stepped on it the less important it becomes. I am pretty excited that it's been DAYS since I last weighed not hours (or minutes lol)
  10. i was told to not lift anything heavier than a full gallon of milk for 6wks. i have a 4 and 7 yr old and they dont need to be picked up like a 2yr old would. good luck

    Non Scale Victories!

    OH MY GOSH lingling I totally was writing this post in my head last night as I went to bed!!!! I have been getting up the past couple nights and changing out of my pj pants into a pair of panties. I just couldnt get comfortable with the pj pants on and last night the reason WHY clicked, THEY ARE TOO BIG! they ride up ALL the way to my thighs and get bunched up and are not comfy. I don't know why it took me so long to figure it out but it definately made me feel a little more successful as the scale didnt budge at all this week. This morning I was getting dressed and put my belt on and when I started this journey *IF* I wore a belt it was merely for decoration and I used the very largest hole on the belt. Today I was fastening it and realized that I am on the SMALLEST hole! I am almost too little for my belt, and i NEED it now! Okay final NSV for me and I'll hush. I haven't gotten on the scale since yesterday. I have resolved to NOT get on it until Friday morning. I need to get out of the mindset that it will determine my success. My success will be defined by ME everytime I make positive choices. Everytime I get in my exercise I am successful. Everytime I put my health ahead of my petulant inner foodchild I am successful. I feel good about myself and then step on the scale and feel myself deflate, this isn't the way I want to live my life and I am doing something about it. Congratulations on your NSV's Lingling! I am proud of you and your successes!!
  12. i am still sitting at the same spot i was last week @@ this game sucks lol i can't wait for a fill and soem scale movement!!

    Tricare Hell...

    i had a HUGE debacle getting tricare to approve my surgery. i ended up calling them everyday or every other day for 2wks and FINALLY they answered me. I have no clue what the hangup was. I have tricare prime and felt like they dragged their feet, also i dealt with some liason between tricare and my surgeon at healthnet federal services that was IDIOTIC! the day before my surgery they called to ask me if i was sure i wanted to have my gastric bypass. I was like ummmm NO i'm not having bypass!! and i had to argue w/her for a few moments until they finally believed me.
