The new me
December 15, 2011 1:13 am
 
 As of today I am still 198lbs still mainting the wt. loss I want lose about 40 more but im ok.
I was 268 when I started this journey.  I do have to say it is very hard to deal with this wt loss. Not only do you have to prioritize your life but you have to change your life style. I still have yet to connect the old me with the new me. I still see myself as plus size. I have not changed as a person and I am still me. Its the other people who have changed towards me.  I have recently noticed that Im hybernating. Isolating myself. I still have the same behaviors as when I was heavy.  Im finding myself gambling or shopping to cope with my anxiety or depression since I cant eat. 
OMG, how I do miss my food. It was my comfort, my friend , it filled my void. It was there when I was bored , happy, sad. Anything you name it. Know I find myself being lonely and depressed with a void. 
I have prayed so much and asked God to help me find something to fill this void. I have turned to my boys and asked them to help me not go to the casino. Its sad that you are not prepared for the wt. loss just the excitement of being skinny. Did I forget to mention the lack of clothing attire. I have lost so much wt. I had no clothes what so ever. My aunt had to buy me a new wardrobe which was awesome but I didnt even know I looked horrible :(. 
Either way, I am in a new path as of today. Accepting my new me, my new life , my new challenges. Its ok to wear tight clothes no one is going to laugh at me. I can sit anywhere. 
Its ok not to eat with friends even if they insist.  I love the new me and I love myself :)
what do you guys think?

What does weight have to do with it?
November 3, 2010 4:39 am
Hi Everyone,
I apologize for not blogging on my own group. Ive been dealing with my wt lose and actually been hybernating. No excuse though.
The issues Ive been having have to deal with everyones issue pertaining to my weight lose.
What does my wt. loss have to do with you? Why do I have to occommadate your needs? Im still me! havent changed one bit just my dress size. Why cant it be like old times? Stop talking about my weight loss.
So this is what Ive been having to deal with. I have come to terms with the fact I have to be around differernt  people and different groups. Didn't realize how much wt. loss affects your life.   Im trying to get my feelings under control thats why I logged on . Please forgive me for not being ontop of my blog.  Thanks

I will soon be having my surgery. As a matter of fact tomorrow. I was dreding the liquid diet but I started it early. I was about to hurt someone the first day.  I managed to go through the first day. Then the second day came and went. Im on the forth day and I get a call to come to surgery in three days. Oh Geez.
Well, Im so excited but today I had a cinco de mayo fundraiser and had Nachos and chips n salsa and quesadillas all in front of me.
I held my ground and did not give in.  Boy, am i  proud of myself.  This friend of mine who is half my age said to me " Maritza, If you cant even handle one day then you cant handle the lap band" Boy that woke me up.
Well, My life will be changing tomorrow, So either I can make the same old choices and feel horrible the next day or I can choose to change my life with this tool and live the life Ive been wishing for , for twenty years.
I CHOOSE LIFE , how bout you. Your friend M
