I am still maintaining my weight.  I still fluctuate from 178-185 and I am fine with that.  I wear a 12-14 top and a 14-16 bottom.  My feet are size 10 now too.  I have no bosum now though.  LOL  I went from a DD to a B!  What is up with that?  I sortof like that though as I am not 'top heavy' anymore and can see my toes!  LOL  Though my husband may disagree.  *snort*

Anywho, life is good.  I can do so much more.  My energy level is out of this world and I LOVE to cook!  I am always in the kitchen!!! 

I do have to eat about 4-6 times daily as I am hypoglycemic.  I carry skittles with me now as well to help me with that.

Silas is 14 months old next Monday...man, time flies!

Ok, gonna scoot.  Visit my regular blog at http://monileigh.com

 

Not much going on here...am down 200lbs now.  I fluctuate between 178-183 pretty much.  I wear a 12-14 usually.  I am LOVING it!  I think I am done loosing now which is fine with me.  For my height and stuff I feel fine and look fine I think.  I am totally satisfied!  I am very thankful to say the least!  I am 1.5 years post op now.  I DO try to keep my obesityhelp file updated so you can go there to see what is new if you are that interested...Also, new pics are up as well on my photo album.  Also, I keep my main blog updated weekly pretty much...monileigh.blogdrive.com...all these links are posted on this site to the left...so click around!  Anywho, gotta get...

Well, had my baby!  Read more on my regular blog:  http://monileigh.blogdrive.com  to read up on Silas.  Or go to his little site I made him...  http://monileigh.pixel-playhouse.com/Silas.html 

I have lost 180 pounds since last June 9th, 2004 now!!!!!  Yeah!  I am in a size 14-16 or so.  I feel wonderful.  And I just had my baby 4 weeks ago today.   So that is pretty good I think!

Had some probs with my pregnancy...you can also read back in my blog for details on that as well.  We think it may be to nutrition issues since I got preggo so fast after my surgery.  PLEASE be sure to use DOUBLE protection, Ladies when having this surgery!  We were taking one precaution but did not know I would not absorb it!  So you can be sure we are being extra careful in the future.  It is not healthy for you or your unborn baby!  My placenta was not very viable and the cord was very puny and shriveled.  Again, we think due to the surgery.  This makes me sick to think I almost cost my baby's life.  I wish I would have researched more so I would have known I would not absorb my pill like normal people. 

Oh well, the Lord is good as Silas is fine now!   We made it!

Here are two mug shots of me...you can click on them to see them larger...

  

Down to 220-225 now.  That is -140 and some odd pounds.  Posted new photos on my wls photo site.  Just click over there on the link to the left

If you have not already heard, I am 5 months pregnant.  Though we are estatic and yes...I am getting all the prenatal care and following all orders since my surgery and with this pregnancy...warning to all ladies of childbearing age who have had this surgery or are going to have it...malabsorbtion is not just concerning your sugars, fats, vitamins and minerals...it is also your birth control pill!!!!!  So use other precautions.  Since I am allergic to latex, the secondary precaution was not even a valid issue even if I DID know about the 80% of bariatric women who get preggo ON the pill after surgery!  LOLOL

Anywho, we are estatic! 

Good wishes to all of you!
