Hello, Karyn

I’ve been weighing myself daily because I want to see how fast I’m loosing weight post gastric bypass. So far I’ve lost 1-2 lb. a day. I went from 307  lb. to 299 lb. as of this morning. I’ve officially left the 300′s mark FOREVER. I can not stress this enough that my weight will never, ever, get th

So the healing is going slowly and I haven’t pushed myself.. until today. I went to go outside with my cousin, her four children all under 5 years of age, her boyfriend, sister and her boyfriend, mother to sit outside to walk around. The elevator hesitated, clunked and died. I was in there with thes

This entire surgery experience is almost unreal to me. I feel like I am going to wake up and it’ll never have happened and  I’ll still be the fat girl, with little hope of loosing it and keep it off. I  have found out that I like jello… dunno why but orange jello and beef [...]

While I am still at Geisinger recovering, my pain levels are great. I went in with doubts and came out knowing I did the right thing. I am so excited with this new chapter of my life. I am so thankful for this operation. I am also being called a poster child.

Today, is the day I’ve been waiting for 6 long months for. I can’t begin to describe how frightened I am, nor can I describe the jubilation that this day has brought me. But alas, I shall try. I am so excited about the prospect of a brighter, thinner healthier future. I’ve change my entire outlook o

This past few days I’ve been bitching about being hungary, of course-liquid diets suck. But this morning when I hopped up on my scale it read 308 lbs…. that’s the lowest I’ve been in a few years. Its a long ways to go but I’m celebrating this little victory non-the-less. I really feel that I [...]

A few days ago I fell asleep on the couch waiting to pick up a friend from work, since he’s got no car.  I woke up with my hip hurting and apparently out of place. Its taken those few days to get my hip back into place. Last night I got very little sleep because [...]

So its now counting down till surgery. I am on a liquid diet as of now. And its excellent timing. When its super hot outside. I don’t cook. Period. I got some milk for the shakes and some almond milk for the chocolate shakes, for some reason to me it tastes better. I’m ready. I [...]

15 days until my surgery. 15 days until my life changes forever, 15 days until my road to becoming healthy takes off (its alright begun.) 15 days before I am going to have to go through everything and slowly change it out. 15 days of liquid diet… oh well I can do it. I know [...]

So back in November I signed up for Time Warner bundle package valuing at $145 a month including the Roadrunner digital mobile wifi device. I live in a pretty rural area I know that a lot of mobile stuff doesn’t work around here. I went on the website and looked at their map, my area [...]
