Well I went to the doctors yesterday and they did an upper GI and a swallow test..  Both appeared to be fine. . The only thing now to do is wait for them to take out my gall bladder on September 20,2002, and see how I do after that.  My weight loss is still going fine. As of today,  I weigh 315 pounds. I'm estatic with my weight loss, as is everyone else.  I am alread having alot of hanging skin on my arms and stomach.  I will be glad when I can have the plastic surgery to fix it up.  I think once I past the one year anniversary the doctors are going to ask that I get plastic surgery to remove some of the skin, so that it won't be so bothersome to me, and so that I will feel better about myself.  I'm happy that everyone is enjoying my website. I will try and keep it updated with pics and comments as I go along.  My next doctors appointment in Greenville NC is on September 16.  I am going to start trying to work out more, I haven't been feeling good so I haven't been working out like I should.  Once I do, I'm sure my weight will start coming off again.
Taken September 25, 2002 310-315 pounds
I had my gall bladder surgery on September 20.  They were able to do it lap. So I wasn't in the hospital for a long period of time. Just over night. I have my good days and bad days still.  I hurt more so in the late afternoons then anything at all.  I go back to the doctors on October 3.  I'm hoping to have lost more weight by then, but since I've already lost 140 pounds as fast as I have, I expect my weight loss to start slowing down some.  It should start picking up again once I can start walking and doing other stuff.  I'm walking alittle bit now but not like I should.  I still haven't gotten back up to my two miles a day,but walking more than 30 minutes this past week has really tired me out.  Of course as its explained to me I'm still recouperating from surgery no matter how good I feel.  Its so nice to be able to wake up in the morning without feeling sick.  I haven't had any naeusea since I had my surgery except for onenight when I ate too much, I threw up then, but I figured it served me right for eating as much as I did. I learned my lesson and haven't done it since.  I really learned my lesson! Anyway, I'll have more of an update when I come back from the doctors next week. Oh and take a really good look at my recent picture. Yes I'm actually wearing a skirt for those of you who have never seen mein anything but pants and a teeshirt.  I figured it was about time to start getting some nicer clothes. ANd for you clothing conscious people, I know my sneakers don't go with the skirt, but I haven't gotten a pair of dress shoes yet. Thats coming next.  You all take care and I will update next week.
