Today I'm feeling a little lazy. Didn't come close to reaching the 10,000 steps today. But I'm exhausted after babysitting a 3 y/o Friday into Saturday. WHEW! Thankfully tomorrow is a new day. And, I'll start over.

I don't think a decision should be based on age, but maturity. It depends how well you're going to be able to cope with all the changes. It's a lot of different things going on. I just turned 24 and so glad I did it! I feel like I'll be able to enjoy more things now

My BIG goal of WLS was to be eligible to become a stem cell donor some day. A random stranger saved my husband's life and I would LOVE to be able to give back to someone else they way he did. Well! I just did some research. And I FINALLY fit under the eligible category! I'm under 240!!

Tomorrow the school I work for is taking some kids on a camping trip. It is overnight tomorrow and will run into Wednesday afternoon! I just found out I'm going Whoohoo! Before surgery I don't think I'd have any interest going. There's a LOT of activity involved. And, I would be too nervous I couldn't participate in all the things... You better bet I'm going to be running around participating this time ahhhhhh the benefits of losing 70 some pounds!

Buying Clothes While Loosing Weight?
MRSKOUBiK replied to MommyTawnie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a 3 dollar budget. If it's not 3 or less, I don't buy it. But, I've also been VERY lucky to have a friend who had VSG in April 2010 who showers me with her old clothes! -
I'm almost three months out and have had two colds already. I dont know if it's related of course. But, they SUCKED!

wife is not supportive at all (long)
MRSKOUBiK replied to doggz109's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It sounds like she's just afraid. If she needs someone to talk to, message me. I'll give you my number. I'm almost three months post op and have had NO complications. I love my sleeve. Sadly enough, at the end of the day you have to do what's right for YOU. Your health is very important .. so do what you think is right. Hopefully she will come around! -
Look at my tracker!! hehe

Thanks guys! Uhm, twenty five pounds of that were lost during the PRE op diet... I just eat three small meals a day and some times I do snack a little. I normally eat one egg scrambled for Breakfast. Then at lunch my mom and I share a Lean Cuisine and for dinner... I just eat whatever... Chili... Soup, whatever! I try limiting carbs and sugar but lately I've been allowing myself SOME... I dont know.... for me the weight is just coming off. I do go to the gym about 4 to 5 times a week. I use the treadmill for a mill... elipitical for a mile..... then do the weight stuff....also do Water aerobics some days...
