...I believe that I made the best decision that I could have ever made. Happy 3rd Bandiversary to me and I am still learning to love the skin that I am in this Valentine's Day 2010!! My three year checkup is tomorrow. I will take a picture in front of same door from three years ago . I have posted a few pictures (album is called Mardi Gras) from the Mardi Gras Gala which was held on February 6th. If you are a friend, you can view them. If not, you can send a friend request. This journey is a struggle and I am still not at goal. However, I am do not weight any number near the number I did three years ago which was 272 pounds. I am too chicken to weigh today (I think I weigh about 190 pounds) but I will be forced get on the scales tomorrow. I believe I am down about 10-15 pounds smaller than last year this time. I had gotten down to 185.4 last moth. I am shooting for my personal goal weight for mid May of this year. Thank you to all of you who continue to support me on this journey.

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown

Thanks, at times it is very difficult to remain focused and right now is one of those times because I have been enjoying Mardi Gras.

Good for you faith. You may not be where you want to be...but thank God you're not where you were. I'm reminded of why I elected to have the surgery and realize that at 40 pound down...l'm so damn happy...I never want to lose this feeling of well being!! I'm happy for you

Be the CHANGE in the world...that you want to see

Thanks....I know it is hard to believe that it has been three year. I am not happy with the number that the scale said. I weighed 192 at the doctor today. I have got to get back on it SERIOUSLY come Wednesday. For now, celebrate the remaining Mardi Gras festivities tonight and the big 40 tomorrow!!!
