I'm back bitches!!!

Sorry I've been gone. My computer died so I had to send my computer to get fixed then they told me it would cost to much to fix so since I had a warrenty I got a new laptop!! I love it. I'm still getting used to it.

Last Tuesday I got a fill it was only .3 which brought me to 5.8 cc in my 10cc band. Again .3 was to much for my band so I think I can say I'm at my sweet spot.

I've lost 51 lbs since aug 16 2011 I'm pretty excited about that.

School is way harder then I thought it would be. I should go study.

I just wanted to check in I'll write a blog tomorrow.

- I've learned that food no longer controls me.
- Healthy food does taste good.
- I've lost 48lbs which puts me at 292 I haven't been at this weight since Jan of 2009.
- I know how to eat now. I'm very closes to my sweet spot and I haven't PB in over a week.
- I've started to work out. I started the 30 Day Shred (I did it yesterday & it's killing me)
- I love the compliments I've been getting and it keeps me going.
- I love my band (although I haven't named her yet, I do know it's a female because it was moody.)
- I love all my supporters.
- I'm glad I found my YT (YouTube) family.
- I love my blogger family too.
- I love all the people in my group in facebook and the other WLS groups I'm in.

Crying....

Seriously crying my eyes out. I feel like a horrible friend. I can't even begin to start why I feel like a horrible friend I just do. I can't tell my friends anything because I'm scared to lose them. If I lose them then I'll be alone. I don't really have to many friends. It's hard for me to tell them something with out looking like a bitch or that I'm jealous of them. That's not the case. I'm not trying to hurt them or take their happiness away either. I hate that I get so emotionally attach to my friends because I start acting all crazy when I feel passionate about something. I can't talk to a lot of my friends because I'm scared they won't tell someone. The only reason I'm scared is because we are all best friends with each other. There's handful of us. I feel like I'm the least person they'd want to be best friends with though. I've never felt like someone is my best friend that they are mine and I'm theirs and there isn't anyone else above me. I know it's a petty thing to think about but it's true. I want my friends to be happy I really do & it kills me to think that something might not work out the way they want and then they will be heart broken and it's the hardest thing for me to stand is one of my friends to be sad or hurt. It might be because I wouldn't want anyone else to feel the pain like I do. It's not fair noone deserves to feel like this. I should be able to tell them excatly what I'm thinking just like when they tell me what they think about my choices. I'll keep my thoughts and worries to myself. My tears will eventually dry up. I will be happy for them and smile the biggest smile I can & my heart will remain open when they need me. It their life not mine and I will not voice my thoughts on their lifes any longer. I'm sorry I'm a bad friend but I do love you.

2012: New Year, New Body, New Me, New Life!

2011 I had hit rock bottom. I hit my highest weight of 340lbs. My weight loss surgery got post-pounded. I had to go through a 6 months diet which I wasn't expecting which is the reason I didn't have my surgery until Aug 2011. I've lost 44lbs since 8.16.11 I'm very proud of that.

I thought I had found the love of my life last FEB. I was wrong though. He came with more baggage then I personally could handle. We broke up for good on the 29th of Decemeber. So I ran in the new year single & happy and excited for my new year.

I'm excited to go to Vegas in May. Two days after my birthday and a day after finals for the Weight Loss Foundation Of America's Meet & Greet. I'm excited to meet so many new people who gone through the same journey as I have.

My Goals for 2012 are the following.
I want to lose 50lbs by vegas (may 17th)
I want to lose 100lbs by 12.31.11 which means I’d be @ 196lbs (ONEDERLAND)
I want to complete C25k
I want to run the Lung Cancer Awarness 5k
I want to pay of half my debt.
I want to pass all my classes with atleast a B if not a A.

I think my list will grow more but that's all I can think of so far. I hope everyone has a great year & don't ever stop believing in you dreams or yourself.
