Surgery time again!!

I go in for gallbladder surgery in the morning at 530am. I am a little nervous, but happy to have it taken care of. I will let you know how it goes. I am at work so this will be short and sweet.
Thanks.

11 months!!!

I can't believe it is almost 1 year since surgery!
I am doing great.

I am only 4.5 pounds away from my original goal.
I would still like to go a little bit more down, but I am so happy were I am.
I wonder how much my gallbladder weighs. :)
More on that later. I think I look good :)

New News!

Well I am posting, amazing huh! I am going to wait on the knee surgery. I have done physical therapy and it seems to be doing good right now, as long as I don't over do it with the exercising. I can still walk great on the treadmill and even run a little bit. I just can't do the classes as much as I was. I have a hard time with deep squats and lounges, plus a lot of the step classes makes it sore. So I just need to mix it up more.

Work is going good. I am working about 50 hours a week. Still at both places. I am so thankful for my family and all the help they give us with the kids. My moms the greatest!!!

I have been having abdominal pain recently, so I went to my surgeon to find out why. He sent me for an abdominal ultrasound and I have gallstones. One really big one and a lot of small ones. So I will be going in for surgery to take my gallbladder out. While he is in there, he will look around and make sure everything else is good. Making sure that I don't have any hernias or kinked bowels. So I will find out tonight when he wants me to go in. It will most likely be out patient surgery at LDS hospital. Hopefully I won't be out for to long.

I am planning on taking measurements tomorrow and pictures, since I found my camera. I am so happy I found it. I thought I would end up buying a new one, since I had not seen it for a couple of months.

Bobby is almost done with school. Four more weeks to go, yeah!!! I have not really enjoyed the school experience, and neither has Bob. I am most likely going to do the K-12 program that the district puts out. It is a homeschooling program that I really think will work with our lives. We have a lot of home school groups here in davis county that we will participate in. I am really excited to be having fun with my kids both together. This way with me working a lot of evenings and weekends, I will be able to see my son.

I have to take bob to school now, so I will post my measurements tomorrow.

10 months!!

Well I made it to 10 months since surgery and I am doing great. I have lost 140lbs and feel great. I haven't taken pictures yet, because I can't find my camera. But I will post some soon. It feels really good to have the weight off, emotionally and physically.

I have to have knee surgery soon, which I am not looking forward to, but hopefully it will help. I have a knee spur and a torn meniscus?? I will be down for 1-2 weeks. I am looking forward to being able to run and do my excercise classes again. And knee on the ground.

I will try and post more, sorry. But, I am at work so I will go work.

Cute Poem

THE U IN JESUS

Before U were thought of or time had begun,
God stuck U in the name of His Son.
And each time U pray, you'll see it's true,
You can't spell out JesUs and not include U.
You're a pretty big part of His wonderful name,
For U, He was born; that's why He came.
And His great love for U is the reason He died.
It even takes U to spell crUcified.
Isn't it thrilling and splendidly grand,
He rose from the dead, with U in His plan?
The stones split away, the gold trUmpet blew,
And this word resUrrection is spelled with a U.
When JesUs left earth at His upward ascension,
He felt there was one thing He just had to mention.
"Go into the world and tell them it's true,
That I love them all - just like I love U."
So many great people are spelled with a U,
Don't they have a right to know JesUs too?
It all depends now on what U will do,
He'd like them to know
But it all starts with U.

I am not sure of the author, but that it was a great thing to think about.
Have a great day!!!

Fast Post

I have not blogged for awhile now, sorry. I have been working like crazy. I am enjoying it, it just takes getting used to it.

Good news: I ran a 14 minute mile the other day!!! That is the first time I have ever done that. It was fun. I have not been able to go to the gym as often now that I am working, but I try to go at least once to twice a week.

I have lost almost 136 pounds to date. My nine months was on the 8th of March, I need to get my pictures still and my measurements. Only 11 more pounds to go to my first goal, then I will see from there.

This will be a small post, I am heading to work!
Thanks for listening.
