LOL.....Glad I can boost the ego for you. But, I'm telling you the truth, plain and simple. At 254, my knees hurt, my feet were in pain daily, walking down the hall at work I would get out of breath and people would stop me to ask if I was okay. I slept all the time - or so it seemed. I had NO energy. I didn't want to go anywhere or do anything. Life was miserable. I did enjoy working because I was good at my job and was valued for my knowledge. But, I tried to stay in my office at my desk all day long. The feet and knees hurt too much. I hadn't played with my kids in years unless it was a board game or something on the computer....or watching tv. But, they hated to watch tv with me because I would always fall asleep. I wasn't much better at the computer...and would only play one board game with them and would go take a nap afterwards most of the time. It was a miserable life. Cleaning? HA!!! I did cook, but because I liked to eat. However, most of the time, we ate out because after working all day I didn't have the energy to stand up and cook.
Things have really changed since surgery. Now we walk to the park and then we all play together. I'm on the swings with the kids, running and pushing them on the merry go round, climbing whatever they climb..including the trees! Then after we get tired of playing, we walk home!! I watch tv with them, go outside and play with them...and now that I'm not working anymore, the house is spotless (more or less, I DO have 4 boys) and I have a nutritious home cooked meal ready for them every night...and most mornings before school too! We only eat out now when we HAVE to....or if it's more convenient for whatever reason. So, now we are only eating out maybe 1-2 times per month. The kids are healthier and happier and so am I.
So....now you see why I'm so impressed by you and all you can do. Keep it up!!! Make me JEALOUS of you and all you can do. I dare ya!!

We are all doing great! There are days when I actually forget my 427lb self till I have a moment of "WOW not to long ago I couldn't do this". Its just amazing. Its hard to think that last year May I was in the 390's and here I am a year later in the 240's. Last year this month I thought I had reached the end of my rope and here I am at the same time of year once again and instead of seeing "the end" I see "the future".
