I know I haven't been around here much lately.  I have just been so sick lately with my RA and fibro and stuff lately.  But here is the most recent compare I have done.  I am almost 3 years post now and I actally smaller than this now- down to about 145 now.  My heightest weight was 382.  Such a huge change.  Started at barely fitting into a size 30 to wearing a size 7.  Working more on my blog again too.

I can't believe I am almost 2 years post op!  I am down to 158 pounds as of right now and here is my lastest compare.  I also posted some videos up on my blog at www.geekmomblog.com.  I was wondering if anyone else was having the same problems I am having?

So I am 16 months out from surgery.  Having some complications.  Pain mostly.  Doctor thinks an internal intestinal hernia.  Fun.  Anyway- I'm down 223 pounds and weigh 159 poudns now.   19 pounds till goal!

11 months post op
Highest weight: 382
Current weight: 185
Total Lost: 197
Total Inches Lost: 108.5

So 10 months out and a month since my gall bladder surgery.  Found a pic from Dec 2008 and WOW looks like I was up to 382 at that point!  That's higher than I remember ever being.  I guess I just blocked it from my memory and pretended it didn't happen but my journals say I was up to 382!  Down to 190 now.

So I am officiall under 200 pounds!  I am at 197 which is soo amazing.  I started at 360.  Here are the progress pics and some other pics I took today.

So first the setback! I have gallstones and an inflamed gallbladder so I have to have that taken out on August 13 with Marshall. They hurt so bad sometimes I wish they could schedule surgery sooner!

And the wow- today I am officially under 200 pounds! Only 48 pounds till goal!

Just wanted to share! Have a great day everyone- so far mine has been awesome!

My application to be an OH.com support group leading was approved!  Unfortunately the training for this month is on my best friends wedding so I will have to wait until September to do my training, but I am very excited about the training!  Now- who wants to go to Houston with me in November for the OH Event?!

I just got the email that we are confirmed for the meeting room at the Heartland Bank Building in Normal by the Normal Public Library!  I will soon be organizing our first physical meeting and will post it to the calender as soon as I have that worked out.  How exciting!
