As stated several months ago I was going to do my weightloss the old skool way. Well so far I am down 27lbs and am now in the gym 5 days a week. I am feeling really good my energy levels are off the chain and I am in good spirit. I will make sure I keep you all posted.

So how is everyone doing any updates?

So one of my goals was to ride a rollercoaster. I must say I may not be at Six Flags, but a rollercoaster I am on. I am really confused and not sure anymore. I dont think that I will be getting surgery anymore since the job loss I am now broke. The copays are killing me. I went for the sleep test and got my portion in the mail, I almost passed out. I am so close but yet so far away. My closest friends are offering there support as much as they can and my father is claiming maybe its not in Gods will.  I dont know I am just lost. Emotionally I am trying to do the right thing, mentally I am just flustered, finacially I am just done. Please if you read this whether it the day I right it or 5 months from now, please know that I welcome your encouragement.

On another note I am back in the gym and feeling really good I have been doing everything I can to stay away from the pies and cookies all season and even portioned throughout the holidays. My goal is to be down 40lbs by April & 90lbs by September. If I cant get the surgery I am gonna do it the old fashioned way. At this point nothing can stop me. I have never been so determined in my LIFE!!!

I made the call today and next week I go for a class then I meet another DR. I advised them that I am not sold on them yet however I will still come in. Honestly I am only going here because PCP wants me to. I have Barix on speed deal though so if I dont hear the right things I am walking and the first place will be it (BARIX) I am now looking forward to a healthier me. I am seeing the attention already and I have only lost 18lbs in total. Needless to say I have to do some major praying because I am not trying to become a beast after surgey and be known as MR. Smut.

So Tell me you thoughts.
 
how was it as you waited to get a Surg. date?

Has the process changed you at all?

Are more flirtatious now than you were before?

Do you just look at folks like please what would you have said a year ago?

I am inerested, I truly am enlighten me!

Over the last couple of months I had/have been going through alot. Not sure about surgery because I was afraid then was afraid of the attention I would get afterwards. On top of that I lost two jobs in 3 months due to Lay-offs (I mean really why hire just to lay-off) So now I am back on my feet (still not working) but am getting by and killing my savings accounts. But I guess that is why we save.

I have got myself back on track with the weight loss and I havent gained any back however I am stuck at 20lbs. I have met all of the requirements for surgery but for some reason cant seem to deal the number.

So over the next couple of days I am traveling and when I get back it is on. I will be back to my flirting and jokes on the boards and more importanly the gym.

So to all that have wondered about me I am here and ready to get back on track. 20lbs down is not enough. I have to ride the rollercoasters at six flags next season. LOL!!!! Funny how the simple things motivate me.

So I went to see my Nutrionist this morning and to my surpise I am down another 6 lbs from last week . I made her do the weight 3x because I didnt believe her. I want to be happy but am so confused about why I am losing and not exercising. She tells me its my Calorie intake so I am gonna stick with that for now. LOL!!! (My new total is 15lbs gone in 2months ) I am only eating about 2200 Cals on a bad day and about 1900 on a good day. I have a passion for salad with green peppers and shrooms. I also love the Perdue Perfect portions chicken. Well I thought I would share this with you all.

Next month I am released to hit the gym again , I cant wait to see what happens!

Here are the facts on the chicken!!! (see below)

So I saw my Dr. last night and I am down another 4lbs. which brings me to a total of 9lbs. I also got the results of my bloodwork for my kidneys and since Mar my levels are >50% lower.  Doc made the comment whatever you are doing keep it up.

Well back to work now.

I am stuck I have written this blog 5x and each time it changes. I want to vent but dont know where to start. So instead I am asking for your prayers.

I am in a state of confusion.

Why do skinny people always have something dumb to say abt WLS?

Why is my Fam not supporting me?

Do I sound like a baby yet because I feel like one. Please just pray that I make the right desicion.

Hello all Ok so here is the news. I went to the Dr today and I am 4lbs lighter. Ugh!!! I guess its not that bad for 3weeks of watching calories and no exercise. I know I am gonna get this weight off but it seemd so slow at first. Please keep me in your prayers as I am in need.

There is one person that God sent to me on here that I will not expose but she has made this journey easier and I thank God for sending her. You know who you are and I thank you soooooooooooo much

So today I saw my nutritionist, it was a good meeting. I am now learning how to read labels and watch out for Saturated and trans fats . I have never looked at a box before so I guess this is a good thing. She also has me buying a book called Calorie King, which appears to be very interesting take a look at it if like www.calorieking.com . Well that is it for today

Oh yeah one more thing I want to share a tracking site as well www.fitday.com  there you can track your intake each day. Ok have a good one

Today I go for my 1st "Official" weigh in. I am scared but can manage. I am sitting here at work and thinking how is this really going to work. When this is all done how am I going to feel. Well we shall see. I am soooooo tired of hearing that I am a sexy big boy. I am just ready to be able to wear a sportcoat and jeans again. Ok enough rambling I must go see the DR.
