As of this morning I have lost 60 pounds from my highest weight. I have also lost 27 pounds since my surgery on May 11th. I am really enjoying the gym now that I can work out, though I don't like the eliptical trainer at all. It does burn the calories though but I still hate it. I have blisteres on my feet but I am happy. Never thought I'd say that ( Read more... )

So I decided that I want to try out for the Roller Girls. I probably won't be ready this fall when try outs are held but I would like to work towards trying out next year. I was a really good skater when I was younger and I think with practice I could be again. I think I may buy some speed skates and get back to it once I am cleared for more ( Read more... )

I am not going to go all super psycho and weigh myself everyday. I bought a scale and I weighed and I have lost 6 pounds since my pre-op last Wednesday. I know I am still bloated and swollen from surgery so maybe next week will be different.

Kinda cool!

I am home now. I did amazingly well. No complications at all. No nausea, no stuck feeling. I only have a little bit of pain in my tummy. I am getting my liquids in pretty well. I am a little tired because it's hard for me to sleep in the hospital.

My insurance approved my Gastric Bypass surgery. It will take place in early May.

So it's been not quite two weeks since I got my braces. I had to go back to the ortho on Thursday because I had popped off two brackets. The othro thought that they possibly got a bit of moisture under them when they were originally bonded. All is well and they seem to have bonded well the second time. My teeth have already shifted a lot. The top ( Read more... )

I love veggies... all kinds. Give me cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, green peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes on any given day and I will nom them up. I am in love with baked potato and salad. I will take that over a cheeseburger or pizza. I just think it's funny how when I was a kid I would sit at the table for an hour to avoid eating my brussels ( Read more... )
