6 months

Well, it has been 6 months since my surgery.  All is going well, and I am still working hard.  The weight has slowed down, but it is still coming off.  When I started this whole journey, I was at 246lbs.....as of today, I now weigh 164lbs!!!!   I still have another 30-40lbs to go according to the doctor....but I am happy where I'm at now as well.

Thanks for all the support from my friends and family :)

Almost 2 months

Well, it has been a little while since I last updated all of you.  I apologize for not updating more often.  I am getting close to the 2 month mark after surgery.  As of right now I am down 47 pounds!!!  I am feeling great and have a lot more energy.  I am still not on a regular schedule with my exercising, but I am in the process of getting there with that.  

Today was my first day of classes at Massasoit Community College.  Wow, I'm an actual college student again!!!  I was really nervous heading to class this morning, but once I was in the classroom....it felt great!!!  I was really motivated and I'm really looking forward to this new chapter in my life. 

Now my mission is to get my schedule worked out between my classes, my exercise, and my home life.  It will be tough, but I am looking forward to it. 

I will try to keep you all updated more often.

Until next time.....

One Month Appointment

Well, I had my one month appointment and everything went very smoothly!  In fact, it went better than I had expected.  So when I started this journey, back at my first appointment on Oct. 6th, I weighed in at 246.3.   At my one week prior to surgery appointment I weighed in at 232.1.   As of yesterday Dec 5th, I weighed in at 209.7!!!  I have lost a total of 36.6lbs to date, and I have gone from a size 22/24 to a size 18/20!! 

I also got to start eating solid foods yesterday as well...which is quite interesting.  I am taking it very slow when I eat, and I also make sure that I get in all of my vitamins and supplements as well as my liquids for the day.   It is quite an experience learning to eat again, but I am seeing amazing results so I will not complain!!!!

Very tired right now, it has been a long day.  I will write more later.

Until next time....
