Its the little things that matter!!!

I started my journey in may of 2010 and had my surgery Dec 29th! I've lost 100lbs ! When I say little things that matter I mean like I haven't been able to fit in doctors office chairs In I couldn't tell you how long and I always had to stand and everybody knows that sometimes those waits can be long! But now I cane fit in them just fine! I put a bra on today that I haven't got to wear in like 5 yrs! My major one is and it breaks my heart I haven't been able to sleep with my husband in our bed for 6 yrs ! I couldn't breathe so I had to sleep in the recliner or on the couch! Guess what I can now sleep in bed with my husband ! I thank god every day for every lb I loose because its making me healthier and healthier every day! I'm finally getting my life back! I hated taking pictures now I enjoy taking them to see my progress! I'm shedding the fat suit and getting my life back! I still have lots more to go but I have been given my life back and the lapband is the best thing I could ever done for myself!

I'm taking control of my weight! I've done a a lot of praying to help get me through and a lot of support! I'm not quiting I'm going to beat my weight!

Its Crazy

i was sitting here tonight thinking of different things that affected my body when i weighed 441lbs and i was looking at the bottom of my bare feet and i know this is winter and everybody has dry feet but i can remember when my feet would hurt so bad and they were cracked horribley and would bleed and now there just dry and they look better then what they use to ! i know there's people that feet grosses them out and im sorry but its things like that when you get the weight off that every part of your body gets better ! im sorry if that was a boring blog i just had to share cause i was thinking about it and maybe you have went through it to!

WOW I can do that

I haven't blog in awhile so here it goes! I am feeling so good right now I'm doing things that I couldn't do a year ago such as I took my kids to the zoo when I was at my heaviest and seriously thought I was going to die because of the hills and it was not enjoyable for me because I couldn't hardly breath my legs hurt and I wanted to go home but I stuck it out because it wasn't about me it was about my kids I've since then I've lost a lot of weight and went back to the zoo last weekend ! Now on a mental note I've still have more weight to loose and my skinny sister in law that weighs about 120lbs was with me and I was out doing her in the walking the hills "hehehe" and I wasn't out of breath at all my legs didn't hurt and I was having a good time with my kids I think I even could of done another round lol! Its those kinds of things I look back that I couldn't do that I can now . I'm a hairdresser something I love doing I had to stop because I couldn't take being on my feet anymore since I've lost the weight I'm back to doing it again ! I'm a happier mom because I play out in the yard with my kids and run ! I'm fighting the battle of the bulge and I'm winning this war !
