Well here I am, a year later! Ive weaned Nate a few months before his 2nd birthday. and now Ive decided its time to focus on me for a while, and get some of this weight off... so ill be frank, right now, Im 107 kgs (235 lbs) which isnt bad, as the morning I went into hospital in December I was just over 118 kgs (260lbs) so Ive already lost almost 25 lbs (12 kgs) since then.

I have about 22kgs to go (48lbs) to get to MY goal weight, not the BMI or body calculators ideal weight, or Weight Watchers ideal weight, but mine. I hope to get to 85 kgs by christmas this year.  I will update with photos every month..

Currently I do a fair bit of walking, usually about 2 hours 4-5 days a week, sometimes more. Im also getting on my cross trainer when I can. Im starting to already feel a lot better about myself with the weight Ive already lost. wasnt sure if it was the operation (where I lost muscle sitting around doing nothing) or weaning nate that did it, but either way Im on a roll.. so Im going to go with it! wish me luck
