145 pounds down!


















http://lyndseysgbpjourney.blogspot.com/


These pictures were taking during Memorial Day weekend with my best friend Susan. We went to the old cotton mill at the Silver Comet Trail in Smyrna, GA. I took my little fat nugget Zoey with me too! We had a ton of fun exploring the river and climbing on big rocks. I love nature!

I have been doing well, still losing weight! I am down 145 pounds. I am still jog/walking and working out in the gym. I have started playing tennis and swimming with my friend Sally. Anything outdoors is where I like to be! I have gotten pretty sunburned though. I am getting tan...and it looks good compared to the white paleness I had before...lol!

I am staying positive on the employment end too. I just landed an internship at a shoe company in Buford, GA for the design team. I am super excited about the rich experience that I will gain...not to mention how good it will look on my resume.

Be on the lookout for more postings about my gbp journey!

FINALLY reached my goal of hitting below the 200 pound marker!

It has been way too long since I have written on my blog. I have been very busy losing weight that's for sure. I have finally met my goal of getting under 200 pounds! I now weigh 195 lbs! That brings the grand total to 142 pounds lost!! I could not be any happier!

My next goal is Dr. Burrowes goal of hitting 160 pounds. I have 35 more pounds to lose! I see him for my next visit in July. Hopefully I will have met that goal by then. I cannot believe it's almost been one year since my surgery. (August 25th)

I am still keeping up with regular workouts. I try to exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week. I have stepped up my jogging to go farther as well. From 1 mile to 1.5 miles. I am also toning up in the gym in between my jog/walks. I even think Zoey is getting smaller too! She is my fat little nugget and needs to lose some weight!!

I have stopped going to my support group meetings for a couple of months now and have really felt guilty. They are holding one tomorrow morning and its focus is on sugar and carbs....two of my greatest weaknesses!! Hopefully I will get my butt out of bed and go get some support on!

I have new pictures too...be on the lookout soon for new postings!
