December 1st and a LONG way from where I was...

Dec 01, 2010

Chris and I got divorced in December of 2008.  He hadn't worked in almost 3 years at this point and our marriage was deteriorating from his constant use of pornography, his lack of concern for our family and most importantly our son.  My  son fought too hard to be here to not have the best Daddy possible.  Thankfully, God blessed me with a wonderful husband and we were married back in May 2009.

My lowest weight has been 188 w/o plastic surgery.  I have gone for several consultations trying to find the best price and surgeon here in Atlanta.  I am currently 210 as I have not been watching what I eat and haven't exercised in probably ...gosh...2 or 3 months.  I DO NOT wish for this to become a habit.  

I'm on Facebook as Amber Stokes if you care to see recent pix.

I haven't posted on this site since april of this year.  My son did come home from the hospital, but had to go back about a month later because he had an infection in his CVL line.  We were in the hospital for about a month and finally got to come home again.  In june, Chris and I found out we were going to have another baby...a little girl...but, as with Isaac-our son, I had severe complications.  I didn't find out I was pregnant until I was 17 weeks along.  When I went to have my cerclage done...my water broke..I was 18 weeks.  I continued with the pregnancy because my little girl was still alive.  God was merciful to us.  Caitlyn Nicole was born at 21 weeks and 5 days.  She was with us for 32 wonderful minutes and was absolutely beautiful.  After my water broke, my doctors told me of all the possible complications...compound bone fractions, scoliosis, limb deformaties, premature lung development, and so on....her lungs may have been under developed..but her body was perfectly formed.  You can view her memorial page at:

I have not been able to get back in to update since august though...I forgot my user info and can't seem to get lycos to reset it.  

Weight wise I am still at 224ish.  I don't exercise and I eat whatever I want...I truly need to start a diet and lose the last 50 lbs.  I'm attempting to see if our new insurance will pay for plastic surgery.  My husband is now attempting to begin the process of having this surgery.  I think it would be good for him.  He has some health issues of his own.  We are doing well though.  

I will try to update more frequently and post some new pics!
