So I've chosen to do the 24 hour detox with a bunch of ladies on Back To Basics on facebook. If your on facebook & have had WLS or not I'd highly recommend you join! It really helps you keep accountable. I have finally lost some weight. I lost another 2 lbs I'm down to 294.2. I will be updating through out the day to tell you about my journey though the detox!

10:00am: Check drank the Detox Juice (It didn't taste that bad).
11:00am: Drinking my water as I type!
12:00pm: Detox Jucice starting to not taste as good as I thoght.

2:00pm: Detox Juice (starting to taste super bad)
3:00pm: Water was delayed due to roommate
4:00pm: Drank water & Detox Juice

6:00pm: Detox Juice went to walmart had to pee so bad.
7:00pm: CRAMPS!!!! WATER!
8:00pm: Detox Juice - Still having super bad cramps but I'm determinded not to give up I was getting kind of hungry but I got on the Wii for 15 min and worked out.
9:00pm: Water & sat in the bathtub for almost a hour due to my cramps.
10:00pm Detox juice I kinda think it better again lol
11:00pm Drank my last of water took my pills and headed to bed with a heating pad due to cramos.


All in all it wasn't as hard as I thought. I wasn't hungry. You do pee a lot. I think I would have felt even better if I hadn't started my period. I will post how much I lost tomorrow.

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.

Youtube my new love!

So lately I've been watching a lot of Youtube about WLS and it's really been helping. I follow quite a lot of people. Skymoon1982 & Lossingitwithbecca & bandedwendy! They have truely inspired me to reach for my dreams and nothing can stop me. I even made my own YT channel. It's if anyone wants to subscribe. So far I've only made one video but I'm planning to make more in the future.

Christmas Eve was great. I had a great food day. Although I have learned I have to drink warm.hot liquids before my meal to lossen my band or almost everything comes back up. I had shrimp and one roll which the roll took me a hour to eat. My roommate came with me to eat at my grandma's she had a great time too.

I also had a great Christmas! I got everything I wanted & more. The best gift I got was my boyfriend showed up to Christmas dinner & actually enjoyed his time. There were a lot of people at the house but it was fun. I did find out I love cheeseballs. I love cream cheese!!

Well I hope everyone had a great Holiday! 2012 gonna be a great year!

Always know where the bathroom is...

I want to Thank all my new people following me. I'll tell you a little about me. I'm 23, semi-single (very complicated), bought my first house in May. I recently got Lapband in Aug. I'm a drama queen & I wouldn't change my life for anything.

So I'm down to 301lbs. I don't know if I'll be at my mini goal of 290 by Jan 1 but I'm trying. Last Thursday I went down to Pat's Pub for .99 cent tacos which by the way are AMAZING. I ate 1 1/2 of them. I didn't want to push it to two. I've lately been having a problem stop eating. I guess falling back into bad habits. So I've been throwing up a lot. Today I've throw up 2 of my 3 meals... I don't know if it's because my band is tight last couple days or this drainage I've been having is causing me issues. I can say that I can puke without making a sound. I feel like I have a ED. I mean I guess I did but not one that you think of... I was a over eater. I was eating lunch with my grandmother today @ mcdonalds but I always get chicken nuggets. I ate maybe 5 got stuck and couldn't find the bathroom and we were about to go home so I didn't want to make a fit over anything. I couldn't wait to get back to my grandmothers to the bathroom. I need to slow down and cut my food up more and chew. I also been taking more pills lately because I'm trying to get back on track with my meds plus the doctor put me on two for depression.

On Sunday I baked cookies at my mother's house which was amazing it was so much fun although it was only Kim, my Mother & I. I drank a whole bottle of wine Kim brought over. It was for my mother but she can't drink wine because it has sulfer in it so I drank it. I baked cookies drunk lol they turn out good. I only ate 3 mini cookies. <3

Anyways not much else has been going on. I don't go back to work till 15th of Jan. Thank God my work has Short Term Disability & I get paid.
