Yay 3 more lbs gone forever!

In a hurry, but ECSTATIC because when I weighed yesterday morning I was down 3 lbs. But I ran to the bathroom with a full bladder more than 10 times yesterday, so I thought maybe I'd check again after my walk this morning. 3 lbs less than yesterday!!! HALLELUJAH!!! So that's 6 lbs for the week- I'm overjoyed!!!

Happy Weekend

So I got the floors done. I cleaned out the laundry room (took over an hour) but I feel better about it. I moved lots of stuff from the living floor to the living room couch, which is at least a minimal improvement. Now DBall & I are going to move them to wherever they are supposed to go,like his bedroom, the playroom, etc. I have a few folded things left to put away, and all the dirty dishes even from last night are in the dishwasher and not on the countertop. Last night while I was getting dinner on the table Celeste called and needed me to go to the movies with her (she mystery shops theaters). So I left B & D home with chicken strips, green beans and disgusting garlic mashed cheese potatoes that Dball hates and ran off to see 7 lbs. I was pretty confused for about the entire first half of the movie, and there was a "security guard" who came in every 10-15 minutes or so (literally) and harassed people. Made me pretty nervous thinking someone was going to bom...

*SO* excited that the exercising is going well....

In my head I had decided that we would walk on Mon, Weds & Fri... then deep water running on Tues & Thurs. The first walk we went for last week, where we walked for 40+ minutes, I wondered if maybe it was a fluke or something. I mean I was a little sore after the first half hour, (mostly my rear and hips were feeling it) but I wasn't winded; and I wasn't thinking of asking Bryson to come home and get the car to pick me up. The next time when we went to the park, I started thinking it might not be a fluke after all. But you never can be sure- sometimes those things sneak right up on you. Today after we picked DBall up from school, we went for a walk. We took both dogs, and DBall was going to learn to ride his bike. We went to the park- though the seat on the bike is apparently very hard and uncomfortable. Impressively D. rode on his own for a short distance and didn't crash on the ground after the distance. I'll look into another seat for him maybe tomorr...

The very first....

It has been suggested that I should keep a running accounting of things as best I can regarding my upcoming Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass surgery. I don't really know or care if anyone else reads it, but maybe it'll be helpful for someone (me?) somewhere along the line. So I'm a little anxious/nervous, but mostly excited about my upcoming surgery. It is scheduled for 17th November, 2008. Dr. Josh Roller of the Roller Weight Loss Institute here in Springdale will be performing the surgery. he's done hundreds here in Springdale, but was fellowship trained at Duke University and did hundreds there as well. The plan is to have the surgery,comply with Dr's instructions,lose tons of weight, and have at least one baby. Since I'm already 37, I won't be able to have said baby until 12-18 months after surgery, if I've lost all the weight I need to lose. We'll see how this goes. Right now I'm just excited to get back to my old self- the way I was before...
