This is just unreal!!!!
Dec 02, 2009
It is such a great feeling to know that my tool still works. Turned to doing the Atkins to fight off my extreme carb cravings, and to start loosing. *lost 100 lbs on Atkins yrs ago* However my main reason was to get away from all the carbs and sweets I was gorging myself on. With my tool and lower carb intake, no sugars, I have lost 21 pounds, I began this Nov. 9th. Enjoyed Thanksgiving, but didn't allow myself to go overboard on the good stuff. The most I did was eat several servings throughout the day of sweet taters with brown sugar, yummy they was so good. Next is to start exercising, just have allot to do around here in order to do my walking video, and after Christmas will start buying bus pass in order to get to the gym I live in SSD from my fibro and so I really can't afford the gas much to traval to the gym 3+ days a week. But do want and need to go soon, Theres much more to do there then here at home, so burn out won't be quite as high.
I know now, weight gain after weight loss surgery isn't the end of weight loss, isn't the end to being healthy and happy. Just work, work at it is what it will take. How much do you feel you deserve it? Hard work will indeed bring rewards, only want it bad enough.

Back on track again
Nov 29, 2009
Back on track after Thanksgiving. Have to say that I did better then I thought that I would do. I had some sweet taters with brown sugar of course, some cranberry sauce, stuffing, and then a turkey sandwich in the evening, thats the biggest part of my carb intake, then for disert did eat a couple of extra small peices of pumpkin, and about 3 sugar cookies in a two day period. The very next day I got right back at what is working for me. 18 pounds loss since the beginning of Nov. thinking that is pretty darn good. TIme to put up the Christmas tree, Just came on to change lay out and blog a few words. Later. and hoping the best for everyong out there.

Weakened today
Nov 19, 2009
I had a couple of candy bars today. Wow, felt ill after both. Don't feel like I want to be doing this again anytime soon. The taste and enjoyment of the candy bars isn't worth the way I felt afterwards, plus I am enjoying the weight loss. Wow, am kinda glad I had them so I know life is better without sugar. Not doing that again.. Or I hope not and will do everything to not allow sugar into my diet/ eating plan.

Scared ya all
Nov 05, 2009
am scared I won't get the extra weight off that I gained, and worried to death that I will regain even more then the 70 that I have already gained.
I am almost finished now moving, and it is a matter of getting unpacked rearranged and so on. Once it is all done then I am getting busy with exercising. I can't wait to start going to the gym, and where I am living with my mom for now then going to the gym doesn't just make for a good workout, but it makes for a good time to myself to destress and regroup on thoughts and feelings. Time alone, and time away from my mom so we don't drive one another nuts, crazy, crazier then we already am lol.
I got to go now so I can get busy again, rearranging stuff.
sleep test came back as I do have sleep apnea, dang it, hate sleeping with cpaps. I guess it could be worse. So am glad it isn't.

It is about to begin
Oct 30, 2009
I am so looking forward to getting it started, what is that you might be thinking? It is putting myself on the Atkins eating plan. I won't do all the fat he recommends but will do the protein and low carb amounts. Notice I didn't say NO CARB, for that is just wrong. We need some carb, but can choice which ones it is that we choice to put in our mouths, and lately I haven't been paying NO mind to what it is I been eating. Prob the reason I am pretty much 100 pounds over weight. So here I go again. Starting over once again to loose the extra weight. I have done it twice before, hoping for a third time.

As October comes to an end!
Oct 27, 2009
As October comes to an end I am also putting my weight gain, and gaining weight to an end. Time to put it to sleep, For it is time to pick up my exercersing (walking, gym, and so on) For I am not happy with this weight gain as most of you know. So it isn't going to fix or reverse it self all on it own. Nope got to put my all into making these changes happen. I am getting pretty pumped about it. There are hills here where I am moving to and so I can start hiking them slow and easy, A much more in tense walk then just walking flat grounds. Then once the rains and winter comes then I will surely take the bus to 24 hour fittness. I am going to make changes, but I also know it won't happen over night. Just hope I have what it takes to keep with it long enough to see and notice change happening. Much Prayers are needed, for I have almost 100 to loose to get to goal. I am working on getting seen by a dr and also see if theres any chance at revision, not going to leave any stones unturned.

Feeling over powered
Oct 23, 2009
I am really feeling beat down and over powered as if I will never get this last 90+ pounds off to be with in a healthy bmi range. I can't seem to get back on track, and when I seem to try then I get kicked before I can even get up. Like this moving, it is totally killing my way that I should be eating. Nor do I seem to beable to get in any exercising, not with the fibro, and having to pack/ haul stuff daily. Can't get moved without working on it. IT should go easier after the first when I can rent a storage shed, but at this time I don't know where everything is going to go . The stress of this. I can see the possitive effects of moving, but not till later on, and so now it is hurting me that I aint doing right, not eating exercising, or drinking water right. Not doing anything right. Man this is hurting me. Depressed, and hope that I can find myself out of it and soon.

Its about time
Oct 17, 2009
It is about time!I will be moving out of this shitty motor home, have been since Dec of no running water, not even cold running water. Go to moms to bath and shawor. Hauling water in milk jugs, and am thinking this just may have helped me turn to the bad choices. For I would fix food that is easiest to prepare in order to not go through water to fast. Only able to cook on a hot plate, so ate things that I didn't have to cook and or use dishes with, just hard to do the normal things with no water. So moving in with my mother till I can move in with bf or rent my own place. Just know that every since I lost water I started porking on 10 pounds a month or more. This isn't the best move on account of living with my mother again, but for the best concerning my health and weight, God Willing Atkins will help me get a grip and control of it once again. Lost 100 pounds on Atkins only to get ill and gain all + back. Know allot more now then I did then, and have the gastric bypass tool to work with. I just know I have to get weight loss accomplished. I am not feeling as healthy at this weight as I did at a much lower weight.
I can use all the prayers and support my friends. and just know I am here for you also, and will do all I can to help and to support you as well, thats what we are here for.
