Sounds like you need to slow down some girlfriend. All work and no play is no good.

I'm losing in spurts.....
I actually started working out at the YMCA.
It didn't kill me and i actually felt pretty good when i was done.

I saw my surgeon in Sept. and was 307.
Yesterday i weighed at home and i was 248.

For being six weeks out and not really following any of his insturctiuons/directions i guess I am doing OK. When i saw him for my six week check up he got on me about not getting in enough protein,exercise, the right types of vitamins and not taking better care of myself. ( I'm working ridiculous amounts of hours and not sleeping or eating right.) I broke down and cried and said how this was much harder then i thought it was going to be and i was doing it all wrong and i was going to mess this up like i have everything else in the past.  He hugged me and said i was doing OK and it just takes time and to really get selfish and start putting myself first!!!

Hes an awesome doctor and i am lucky to have him and his staff!!


The weight has got to come off one way or another, sooner or later.

Hang in there kid-o.
