2 Year Anniversary Appointment Moved Up!!!!!!
27 December 2008I ate a lot over the Christmas holiday. I did not deprive myself. I enjoyed every goody and each meal to the fullest. I figured I would put on a few pounds.
Now I had dropped to my all time lowest right before Christmas Eve. This is only 8 lbs more than I weighed when I was 12 [...]
Getting Through The Holidays and Celebrity Meetings and Greetings!
20 December 2008I am now over 22 months out for surgery and all is going well. The scale seems to slowly (still) want to go downward. It is a very slow transition but nevertheless it seems to keep wanting to drift downward. Now I am not complaining. I am at times (depending on how my weight is [...]

Out With The Old, In With The New!
1 January 2008Awwwwww, a new year. I love New Years. It always brings the hope of a fresh start.
2007 was not a very good year for us. Well for the most part, it was not. The surgery was good, that I will attest. But everything else seemed to have the opposite of the midas touch. It has [...]
Finally!
17 November 2007I finally did it. After weeks of plateau’s and going a little up then a little down, I did it! I am 100 lbs down from my surgery date. That is 109 lbs down from consultation and 116 lbs down from my heaviest ever.
