| Ok gang, it's official........I'M BELOW 300LBS!!!!!!!!!! I weighed this morning and I was at 296lbs. I thought I was going to fall off the scale. That puts me down 111lbs. I can't even remember the last time I weighed less than 300lbs. I'm too happy :o) I just can't believe it. Maybe I will lose 200lbs by my one year anniversary!?!?!?!?! My foot is starting to feel a little better. Putting the shoe on still hurts like hell, but what can ya do, right. I have to start getting use to a shoe again. I see the doc again on Thursday, so maybe it will start feeling better then. My knee on my other leg is starting to hurt from limping. Like my mom and sister said, if I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all!!!!!!!! That's the story of my life :o) I had a wonderful time at my cousin Paul's the other night. Paul is my only first cousin between my 2 families. My friend Jodi and I were the only girls. By the way, I didn't find a man, but there were some potentials there. So many men, so little time :o) We watched Gladiator (which I missed the first part of cuz the guys were beating the hell out of each other) and bullshitted. I didn't get home until 5:30 a.m. Sunday morning. It's really cool because Paul, my sister, and I weren't really close growing up. My mom is his godmother and his mom is my godmother, but it was almost like we hated each other. It wasn't until my Aunt Paulla's funeral about 2 months ago we started hanging out on a regular basis. Her death was totally unexpected. She was only a year older than my parents. It's weird how horrible things like that bring people together. I know my Aunt Paulla is looking down on us, smiling. She's be sooooo happy that we are getting along. I just hope things continue to stay good between us. Paul is such a good guy and I'm sooooooo lucky to have him for a cousin and in my life. I ended up going bowling with him and his friends Justin and Dan last night. I didn't actually bowl (because of my foot), but I kept them company. It was fun. I wasn't going to go, but I'm glad I did. Tonight was our support group meeting with Dr. Sudan. Dr. Sudan had one of the plastic surgeons come and talk to us about, you guessed it, plastic surgery!!!!!!!!! It was very interesting and graphic, but I left there a little depressed. I don't want to EVEN think of having another surgery. I know I'm going to have to have it. I was telling my friend Kim, I think I would be ok if I hadn't have had to have kidney surgery. But since I had 2 major surgeries last year, it makes my stomach turn even thinking about having to have another surgery. Dr. Sudan won't even recommend us for plastic surgery until we are at least 2 years out, so maybe by then I'll change my mind. Man I wish I was just a normal girl with a normal life instead of this mellow drama. I worry about such stupid stuff. I need to quit being so paranoid. |
