Hi everyone Well, one year ago today I was at Atlanta Medical Center.....changing my life FOREVER!!! lol Anyway...thought I would post the befores and afters etc. Pre-Op: 336 pounds, BMI 54.7, size 30-32+ clothes, size 9 shoes, Type II Diabetes, MORBIDLY obese *sigh* One year Post-Op: 170 pounds, BMI 27.4 (just overweight now), size 14 (can you freakin believe THAT?!?!?!?),size 7.5 shoes, diabetes GONE!!!! I have more energy now than I can ever remember having (most days). Food is still an issue but believe me....I have adjusted to this new lifestyle and it is SOOOOOOOOOOO worth it to me. I have no doubt that this surgery saved my life and I know that things will only get better from here on out. Looking forward to trying to get approved for plastics(loose skin from HELL), but again....it is worth it. Thanks to everyone once again for the great support system and friendships....I miss you guys!!! Love ya, Shree March 16th, 2006: Makes sense to me :o)
January 20th, 2006: Hard to Believe!!!!!! ![]() Does anyone else have that lump in your throat when you are losing? That drives me crazy!! Current Mood: Current Music: Cardio Radio (Techno) yikes!! January 19th, 2006: Non-Smokers...... piss me off....why do they feel it is necessary to lecture smokers about how bad it is, how much it stinks, and how we should STOP?!?!?!?!? I smoke, have for a LONG time....I am also intelligent so I KNOW it is bad for me etc etc etc. I have never once tried to talk someone INTO smoking. I am not one of those people on the after school specials that stands around whispering "come on, smoke one...you'll like it". In fact I discourage my kids from ever starting and am respectful around my friends that are non-smokers. I wouldn't want ANYONE to pick up this addiction...yes, it is an addiction and I wish I could quit but right now I can't so leave me the hell alone about it!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sick to death of the lectures and looks....it IS legal and I am WAY over 18 so bite my ass non-smokers *puff puff* Sorry, but I had to get it off my chest....by the way neighbor (who doesn't smoke)..I hope your cough gets better *lol* Current Mood: Current Music: Whatever that guys name is that sings So Sick of Love Songs January 16th, 2006: Mondays SUCK!!!!!!! Ok, so I keep screwing up on my job...not sure why. I have lack of focus these days although today was not my fault...computer error, but no back up...now I am SCREWED...man, I hope I don't get fired *sigh* It seems like every week something goes wrong here and I FEEL like it is my fault (sometimes it is). I really need this job in a BAD way even though I had a couple of other interviews last week but until something better comes along I have to maintain this one. I am ready to go......... January 1st, 2006December 28th, 2005December 27th, 2005: 8 months......... Today is my 8 month "surgiversary". I have lost 135 pounds as of this morning. I am 1 pound away from my next goal of 200 pounds by the end of the year. Hopefully I can work that off this week *lol*. I can't remember the last time I was less than 200 pounds. I have gone from a size 30/32 and tight to a 16/18. The hair loss is slowing down and I am feeling much better for the most part. While my health has gotten better my personal life is in shambles. I have a doctor's appointment on Jan 11 to see about getting on some much needed meds. Hopefully that will help. Going to try to get some pics taken tonght at some point so I can update those. More later........ Current Mood: Current Music: Evanesance December 22nd, 2005: Food, Food everywhere........ Office Christmas party today....I walk in a lo and behold there is a spread laid out that stretches as far as the eye can see. Dips,chips,cookies, cakes, candy, doughnuts, hot wings....OMG, I am dying here. Now last year I would have been in heaven but since the surgery food is the enemy!!!!! Today I am in the war zone. Ok, I admit that I DID have some yummy spinach dip and a few crackers already today but I am trying to avoid even going to that part of the office. I have secluded myself in my office hoping that I don't catch a whiff of anything yummy. Maybe I'll go get some water instead. I have a goal to lose 5 more pounds before the end of the year. C'monnnnnnnnn 5 pounds!!!!!! Lord, please help me make it through the day without doing a swan dive on the food table and then running to the bathroom to puke my guts out *grin* Current Mood: Current Music: Office silence since I can't pick up a station here December 20th, 2005: My new Yahoo Profile.......

First let me say that Athens is one of those places that no matter how many times you try to move away you always end up coming back. Wow, I have been away for almost three years and so much has changed but more importantly alot of things remain the same. Comfortable for me, bad for me. I haven't really been "out" anywhere since I got back. That's probably a good thing. Seeing a million people that know you is overwhelming. It's different this time though because now when I see people I used to know (at 300 plus pounds) they are not sure who I am. They say " you LOOK familiar, but I am just not sure". I have to TELL them who I am then they can't believe it is me. I don't know if I should be offeded or not. Does that mean that they never looked at my FACE??? Does that mean that they never once looked past my body size??? Anyway...it IS good to be home. What a different world from living in the Atlanta Metro area!!! Athens is one of those cool places where everything is artsy and eclectic. You can always go downtown and see new bands and cool shops. I am not a shopping kind of gal but I do love visiting the unusual shops found around town. Of course right now we are in the midst of "Bulldog Fever" due to the University of Georgia going to the Sugar Bowl in January. Bulldogs everywhere....fans wearing the Red and Black....UGA flags adorning alot of vehicles and the fronts of houses.I have seen more UGA decorations than Christmas Decorations this year. Excitement is in the air!! I am not really a huge football fan (you know I LOVE baseball), but I guess out of respect to the Dawgs I will watch the Sugar Bowl and pray for a win just like the rest of the Athenians *lol* Looking for a job SUCKS ASS!! I hate everything about it and with it being two weeks before Christmas it REALLY sucks!! I am praying that something comes along soon........ *sigh* Ok, I am bored...going to bed now.
