Determined to not fail!

This is my last hope... it HAS to work! I WILL make it work, forever~!

Hi! I am Jen Hardy in Houston. I am fed up with being this overweight (120 overweight). I am tired of my life being stolen from me, tired of being envious of "normal" people I see, tired of feeling like a failure to myself and my family. Tired of giving up life's most precious gift, the feeling of good health, self-love and loving other people. I will not tolerate this anymore. I will use this tool to achieve my goal and use it wisely, not throw away a special opportunity to change my life back to the way it was and should always be. I refuse to give up any more special days with my family because I am too self-conscious to do certain activities with them. I refuse to give up anymore of my life's passions because I physically cannot do them anymore.

I plan on having this operation by the end of APril/beginning of May 2010. Then my life will change forever and for good in a positive way! I am honored to be a part of your journey and follow everyones road, even with the bumps! I know it won't be easy, but I am finally ready to fight, once again, once and for all.:wink2:

Namaste

Jen Hardy

Now that's what I call a 'Positive Mental Attitude'. Awesome!!

Just remember that it is a tool and you need to follow the instruction manual for it to do it's job. It takes time to change the habits of a lifetime but it can be done if you stick with it through the dark and the light.

Good luck

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
