Karen's Journey

Karen's my name and losing weight is my game. Its a game I haven't won. Started gaining weight since I was 13. I hate it. I don't do well in going to groups in town. The ol' tape playing "Everyones looking at me". I want to be able to go out in public and hold my head up and say "Yeah, you better look at me". LOL I am an emotional eater and have tried to stuff all my feelings. Now I try to deal and head straight for the problem so I can move onto the next task in life.

My Program:
Using my gastric bypass as a tool to losing weight.
I hope to gain help, wisdom and understanding from others on SP. I love water so no problem there. Keep track of my intake of calories. Get off my big'o booty and exercise.

Personal Information:
I am 55 yr young mother of 3 grown daughters. I have 6 grkids-3 boys and 3 girls. I live in Wa State. I like to go camping, fishing, play games and baseball. I don't play ball but my grdaughter does. I have 3 dogs, - 1 aussie & 2 border collies.
I had a gastric bypass in 2003 which I almost died from. Spent 2 months in a hospital and 1 month in a nursing home. The surgery caused my kidneys to shut down so I gained 45 lbs from the fluids and toxins. I started out weighing 415 ended up weighing 460. Like I didn't have enuf to lose anyway. I went thru 8 surgeries in 1 yr. just from that. In May 2004 was my last surgery and my mom passed away 2 wks. later. In Dec. of 2004, my oldest daughter passed away. In Feb. 2005, my husband passed away. Enuf already! Needless to say some of the weight I lost I've gained back due to depression. I am having a rough time getting my feet back on the ground and my mind set to some kind of sanity.

Other Information:
I truly enjoy Sylvia Browne, seen her in 2006
I love to laugh and make others laugh too.
Like being around positive people.

"Direct yourself, consistently and persistently, toward the places, situations, experiences, people and results that you wish to have in your life.
You have more than enough energy, opportunities and ability, when focused in a specific direction, to achieve whatever you choose.
So choose to choose. Decide how your life will be, this hour, this day, this year, this century, and live the true richness of making it happen."
-- Ralph Marston
