Had half a cc removed last week and I feel GREAT! Energy level is back up, exercise back up and attitude much improved. I got too caught up in "not" eating too much! I'm up 3 pounds, but I know that will come off as I'm able to get back up to speed with my exercise! Sometimes all your really need is a little removed!

Bandy is one week old today! It's about time she start letting me sleep through the night.

Only six more days until my favorite sister, Chelsey Helm, gets here for a week!

Frustrated at the scale not moving. But then it does that for me. It moves well for a week, then stays for 2. Grrrr

Just realized that I'm down 2.6 pounds in the past 5 days. Yay! It's nice to see after 2 weeks no loss

My goal is to loose 50 lbs before my vacation on Apr 27. I have lost 40 lbs, so i am close, but i am preparing myself to miss my goal. I will celebrate where I am, and where I have been while acknowledging that I made some mistakes that kept me from making my goal. I LEARNED alot these past 7 1/2 weeks. AND like I PROMISED myself, I will enjoy the weight loss journey and not suffer through it. I can honestly say - I am so happy and proud.

1 week post-op. Feeling pretty good. Sneezing hurts. Lost 5 lbs already!

After 2 weeks of no weight loss, finally 3 pounds down...

Dear Lord, time for bed got to be up in 4 hours, but at least the house is clean, I have clean clothes and all three kids are sleeping happy like.

can't wait until i feel normal. i am beginning to wonder if that's going to happen! slept 12 hours last night and the night before. still super slow and lethargic. dr's office trying to find me another dr to see about the chest pains since mine is out of town. ugh. 2.5 weeks in and wondering if i made a huge mistake by doing this.

Two weeks post op and 20 pounds down (w/2 week pre-op liquid diet)...I hope this continues!! )

Got myself in check again. Realized it wasn't the end of the world to eat a hotdog, just can't keep eating them. Haven't checked the scale. Pain is finally going away... Yay! 1st fill is scheduled next Wednesday, a day shy of my 3 week anniversary.

So glad that next week I am moving into my new place...April 2011, a great month to a wonderful new year. Glad I am seeing all these things fall into place, god has a lot of plans for me. Really wonderful plans for me and my family, glad to watch it happen. Renewed faith in god, New Place, New job and possible a different one come Wednesday. God is so wonderful, praising him daily is what I do.

no weightloss this week, I'm getting a fill April 4th. yayyy!

went for my 1 week post surgery follow up appt today and they took off the bandages beacause they hadn't fallen off yet and he wanted to check the incisions. they look great! i was expecting them to look red and horrible and they don't. some are just a small dot. then i got the ok to eat an egg and i drove straight to a restaurant and ate a scrambled egg. veerrrryyy slowly. it was the best damn egg i've ever had. no problems at all. so happy!

1 lb to ONEDERLAND !!! this is it. this week !!! is it !!

Come my evil Squirrel Minions! It is the week & there is chaos to cause and Nuts to Steal! Grab your Weapons of Mass Destruction & meet me in the Tree House!

Yesterday was so painful, last night... the worst. But I made it through it and saw the surgeon today. He's not too cool. I like the PA better. He didn't say anything about the hernia, told him I couldn't eat anything that wasn't the consistency of water and he said 'good'. And he wants to fill me in a week and a 1/2. They didn't even have a scale to check my weight. BUTTTT......

Been a while...but still doing great. Losing about 2 pounds a week and ready to kick the exercise up a notch!

Haven't lost any weight in 4 weeks now. Getting discouraged.

12 weeks out and down 39.5 lbs. The last few weeks have been slow going but I just got my 3rd fill yesterday so hopefully more progress this month...

Finals are done! Now I get to enjoy my 3 week summer vacation, then back to the books for summer.

Wishing I could help my dad get the outside ready for the builders this week, but I still can't lift anything.

Im waiting on insurance approval..its been a week and im so reeady to know if i was aproved..im so ready and very tired of this weight..

this is the second day after the procedure... I took some gas relief chew-able tablets and something for constipation and the bloating is almost gone ...I hope this fullness feeling will continue. I am still searching sites for meal example for the first two weeks, specially , and after that generally.Any suggestions? I love salads, does it mean I cant have them later?
