Entries for April 2009

Well here it is 2 months out of surgery and I'm starting to try and get used to the fact that my boyfriend of 3 years seems to have broken up with me (ie Venting for the long version) and I need to move on. I miss him still so much but I can honestly say that I'm not turning to food like I would have before so in that sense I feel really good about my self.

So riding in the car with my girlfriend the other day we were talking about a friend she and I had in common, named Buddy from...

Well this is me back in the days when I would be able to eat all my favorite foods with no limits. I was happy with that but not with my weight.

Finally... All the waiting and hard work are ready to pay off...almost 1yr now, preparing for this one day to start a wonderful new life, and that day is fast approaching May 4th 2009.

I was banded on October 24 2007 and have lost have lost 107 pounds so far.

Basically, I am here to share my weight loss experience with people who have something in common with me and my new lifestyle.

Now that the three year search for the funds for my lap band surgery, and the year and some odd months of weight loss are over, I have to find a new way to fund a tummy tuck.

I am a medicare patient as well as a 100% service connected veteran. I've met nothing...
