HEY GUYS , IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE WROTE SOMETHING. I NOW WEIGHT 235.
I'VE BEEN LOSING WEIGHT SLOWLY, BUT I'M HAPPY ABOUT IT. PHYSICALLY I FEEL ALOT BETTER. I HAVEN'T BEEN EATING RIGHT, WHICH, I KNOW IT WILL CATCH UP WITH ME.
EVERYTHING HAS BEEN CRAZY LATELY.
*********************************************************************************************************************
HEY GUYS , TODAY IS JUNE 23RD. GOT SOME BAD NEWS , I HAVEN'T BEEN EATING LIKE I SHOULD . I'VE BEEN SNACKING AND EATING ALL THE WRONG THINGS. I'M NOT EATING ALOT OR TRYING TO STRETCH MY POUCH, BUT I'VE BEEN EATING ANYTHING I WANT. CHEESEBURGERS, SWEETS, FRIED FOODS. I JUST DON'T EAT MUCH OF IT, SO IT DOESN'T MAKE ME SICK. I''M ASHAMED TO SAY IT , BUT SOMEHOW I'VE PUT IN MY HEAD THAT I CAN EAT WHAT I WANT BECAUSE I'M NOT EATING MUCH OF IT AT ALL. WELL TODAY I PROMISE TO STOP ALL THE NONSENSE AND GET WITH THE PROGRAM. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO BADLY WANT THIS SURGERY AND THEY CAN NOT GET IT. AND HERE I AM ABUSING SOMETHING THAT SOME PEOPLE WOULD FEEL GRATEFUL TO HAVE . TODAY STARTS A NEW DAY. DID I MENTION THAT I'M NOT TAKING MY VITAMINS LIKE I SHOULD. NOT GETTING IN THE WATER I SHOULD BE DRINKING AND I'VE JUST TOTALLY STOP DRINKING THE PROTEIN SHAKES. (WELL I CAN'T FIND ONE THAT'S NOT TOO SWEET TO ME ) BUT I STOP LOOKING FOR ONE THAT I CAN TOLERATE ALL TOGETHER , DID I MENTION THAT I'VE BEEN DRINKING ALCOHOL.
WELL THE GOOD NEWS IS , I'VE WENT DOWN ANOTHER SIZE , DOWN TO A SIZE 16. I REALLY NEED TO GET A GRIP BEFORE I END UP SICK , OR IN THE HOSPITAL. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN WHO DEPEND ON ME . I HAVE A HUSBAND WHO WORKS NO STOP . SO WHO'S GONNA TAKE CARE OF ME IF SOMETHING HAPPENS? I MUST LEARN TO BATTLE WITH MY DEPRESSION ALSO. SO AS OF TODAY THERE IS GONNA BE A NEW ME FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, I PROMISE MYSELF NOT LIVE SO RECKLESS. I NOW WEIGHT 270LBS DOWN FROM 317LBS
************************************************************************************
HEY YALL, TODAY IS MAY 13TH, I'M NOT DOING TOO GOOD, I'M NOT GETTING IN THE PROTEIN THAT I NEED. ALL OF THE PROTEIN SHAKES HAVE BECOME VERY NASTY TO ME. I'M EATING FOODS WITH PROTEIN, BUT NO SHAKES. EVEN MY CHEWABLE VITAMINS TASTE NASTY. HOWEVER I AM LOSING WEIGHT AT A SLOW PASTE, BUT IT'S COOL BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S GONNA COME OFF ANYWAY. I JUST HOPE I DON'T GET TOO SMALL. I'M 5"11 SO A SIZE 14 IS FINE FOR ME.
STILL WANNA KEEP SOME CURVES AND A LIL' THICKNESS.
**********************************************************************************
HELLO FOLKS, TODAY IS MAY 7TH,AND I STOP GETTING ON THE SCALE TO CHECK MY WEIGHT, BECAUSE I KNOW THE WEIGHT IS COMING OFF SO WHAT THE SINCE IN CHECKING . I ENJOYING BEING THE SIZE I'M AT NOW EVEN THOUGH I WOULD LIKE TO BE A LITTLE BIT SMALLER. I GUESS I COULD SAY THAT I'M DOING OK. I DON'T GET IN ENOUGH PROTEIN AND WATER SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I WILL HAVE TO WORK ON. THE ONLY DOWNSIZE IS I'M STILL MOURNING A BACON DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER . LOL
**********************************************************************************

IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE I CAN STILL WEAR THE SAME CLOTHES EVEN THOUGH I LOST ABOUT 40 LBS . I 'VE BEEN KINDA DEPRESSED , I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT I MISS EATING FOOD . I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW HAPPY EATING A GOOD MEAL USE TO MAKE ME. I'M IN THE PROCESS OF CHANGING THE WAY I SEE FOOD, DON'T GET ME WRONG , I LOVE SEEING THE WEIGHT FALL OFF, BUT I ALSO MISS EATING A BIG JUICY DOUBLE CHEESE BURGER. I HAVE TO PRAY ABOUT THIS ONE. HELP ME YALL......

I DON'T FEEL LIKE I'M GONNA DO WELL, I'M STARVING ON THIS LIQUID DIET, MAYBE IF I COULD TAKE SOMETHING THAT WOULD CURVE MY APPETITE I WILL MAKE IT. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO MAKE IT. I WILL SEE THE SURGEON FOR MY PRE-OP APPOINTMENT ON FRIDAY. WISH ME WELL
********************************************************************************************************************************************
HELLO TODAY IS FEB 5TH AND I HAVE LESS THAN A MONTH TO GO BEFORE MY SURGERY. I'VE TRIED TO DO THE LIQUID DIET FOR A DAY TO PROVE THAT I CAN DO THIS. BOY, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THAT WAS GOING TO BE SO HARD.
I THINK IT'S REALLY GONNA BE HARD FOR ME TO CONTINUE TO MAKE DINNER FOR MY FAMILY WHILE ON A LIQUID DIET. I KNOW IT'S SOMETHING THAT HAS TO BE DONE. I THINK MY HUSBAND AND MY MOTHER ARE COMING AROUND AND THEY WILL START TO SUPPORT ME . THE FUNNY THING IS THE SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR 03/04/2008 A DAY BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY. SO NO BIRTHDAY CAKE OR ALCOHOL FOR ME.
******************************************************************************************************************************************
07HELLO , MY NAME IS TASS. I'M VERY NEW TO THIS SITE. MY JOURNEY STARTED ON SEPT OF 2007.
THAT'S WHEN I WENT TO AN INFORMATION SESSION ON ROUX-EN Y GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY. I CAN REMEMBER LOOKING AROUNG FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LOOK LIKE THEY WERE MY WEIGHT OR MORE. THE SESSION WAS VERY INFORMATIVE. I TOLD SOME FAMILY MEMBERS ABOUT MY PLANS AND EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WAS NOT A GOOD DECISION.
WELL HERE I AM TODAY HAPPY AS EVER BECAUSE I GOT THE CALL I 'VE BEEN WAITING FOR . MY INSURANCE CALLED ON FRIDAY TO LET ME KNOW THAT I WAS APPROVED FOR SURGERY. IT REALLY DOESN'T SEEM REAL.. MY SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR 03/04/2008 (6WEEKS TO GO), I'M NERVOUS AS WELL AS EXCITED. MY HUSBAND IS SLOWLY COMING AROUND , SO ATLEAST I WILL HAVE HIS SUPPORT. HE THINKS THAT THEIR IS A CHANCE OF ME DYING IN SURGERY.
I BELIEVE THAT NO ONE DIES BEFORE THERE TIME. I COULD EASILY DIE IN A CAR OR AIRPLANE CRASH OR I COULD BE IN THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME AND DIE. /
