Ok everyone I'm so sorry I've been MIA for so long. This month has been CRAZY! so lets start from the beginning.
-So first of all in march our house burnt down. we have insurance and they payed for an apartment and had it furnished for us. Everything was great until the contractor told us our house would be done by the end of June. well the end of June came around and the house wasn't done. well the insurance company said that because the contractor said it would be done by the end of June he would have to pay our rent and such for anytime after that. He claimed that it was my moms fault that it was taking so long soooooooo he payed for July's rent but refused to pay for august so we ended up having to move into another house in Spokane that we have that is vacant because we are trying to sell it. That was a mess since we didn't have any furniture or anything but we got it figured out and we are finally settled into our house. Hopefully we will get to move into our other house before I leave for Cali on the 9th but I doubt it.
-ok so another big story I have for you. I got a fill around July 15th and it was so traumatic! I got filled WAY too tight(completely my fault I was being to aggressive). Well I started to feel sick but didn't really think anything of it. until that night. I couldn't even drink any liquids. It was horrible. well that night I hard a hard time sleeping because I had a hard time swallowing my own saliva. Well I ended up with severe acid reflux I woke up around 2am and I couldn't swallow at all anymore. I spent the rest of the night sitting up feeling like crap and spitting into a cup and on top of that I still had the horrible acid reflux. So I call my Doctor first thing in the morning and they tell me to come in asap. So I do, too bad its a 2 and a half hour car ride. well on the car ride I just start to feel sicker and sicker, eventually I started throwing up blood. i get to the doctors office and they give me an unfill(they did leave .25cc). I ended up on all this medicine to help my stomach heal. i felt super sick for about another week. I didn't eat anything for about 4 days. Like I said before it was horrible. Well I've learned my lesson and I've decided that I'm so close to my goal that I'm going to try and not have to get another fill and just loose these last few pounds myself. i think I can do it. I've been up and down but each month I seem to go down another few pounds and I'm completely happy with that.
-as far as stats go here they are:
180lbs
shirt size: M
Dress size: 12
Jean size: 32/12
Shoe size: 11 (yup I went down a shoe size! hahaha)
-Other things I've been up to:
-Warped tour(It was amazing!)
-I had a relative have a heart attack so I had to drive to Seattle to visit
with him on my days off. He is one of my favorites so I'm glad he is doing
really well now.
-I went to Seattle for a 3 day trip with some friends it was also great.
-At work they made me the store reticketer for inventory which is a pretty sweet
job but it meant I had to work a TON!
I have more stories and things to talk about so I will have to save that for another time.

Holy crap! First, I am sorry to hear about your house! Did you lose everything?
Also, sweet lord that sounds scary about your stomach. It is a good lesson though for all of us.
You are looking great in your pictures!
Yikes! I'm glad you are feeling better after all of that!
hahaha thanks guys! We didn't loose everything in our house it started in my room in the basement while I was at work(it was electrical)and then spread up the walls. But there was a lot of smoke damage so we did loose a lot of things. Everything that was in my room was destroyed but we didn't loose any of our older pictures or my grandmas paintings which were upstairs.
omg Im soo sorry! I know how hard that is! we had a fire in our house in April of 08 it started in my at the time 2 year old daughters room while we were all asleep so I woke up to her screaming that her room was on fire. we lost EVERYTHING even our 3 cats. Im glad everyone is ok with you. it took 8 months for our house to be completely rebuilt it was a nightmare. well we missed ya! and your doing fabulous!
Wow! so sorry you had to go through all that. Just another lesson learned. I hope your tummy heals well and it's smooth sailin' to your goal weight! You look beautiful!
You look great. Thansk for posting the pics... They are such motivation! Keep it up and don't stop blogging... I need to see you success!

I'm so sorry to hear about your house! we really got lucky cause the structure of our house was in really good shape. They really just had to rebuild the basement and then change all the flooring and fix some walls upstairs.

thanks my stomach is much better. I still can't eat very much but it isn't upset anymore.
Leslele-
Thank you!
I also lost weight in my feet - I'm 14 months out from lapband surgery and have lost 111 lbs - am at my goal. But none of my winter shoes from last year fit - they just fly off my feet. But the sweetest thing is that I can put socks on my own feet without having to do some dramatic bodily contortion! Congratulations on your success - I hope it continues and that life improves for you. My blog is sallyslapbandjourney.blogspot.com
