Feelings and more feelings

Yesterday Jan 22nd 2010, my grandmother, my moms mom, granny Meador passed away. Me and my sister Tonia were able to see her on Friday Jan 21st. Granny would have been 89 years old next month. She lived a very long and happy life. She is now in heaven with 2 of her daughters, my mom (Mildred) and Ruby.

Today Jan 23rd 2010 is the 7 year anniversary of my grandmother, my dads mom, granny Loggins death.

This is just too overwhelming. We lost momma just 3 months ago and now we have lost granny Meador and its the anniversary of our other granny's death. I don't know how to handle all of these feelings. I want to cry, I want to sleep, I want to scream at everyone, I want to hide. God is not suppose to give you anything you can not handle well sometimes I think he is asking a little too much from me and my family. My faith is really being tested. My sanity is really being tested. But you know what, I will be strong, I will survive, and I will continue to love!

4 Months Post Op

Not much to tell about the previous month. I got through Christmas just fine. I still have cravings for sweets and I eat them. I do not get all of my water in. It is just hard for me to drink when I am not thirsty. I get all of my protein from food. Every now and then I might have a protein shake but it's more to have one than to need one. I have not been exercising. I don't have an excuse for that except I just don't want to. I am dropping inches so I have had to get a small amount of clothes. I have had some great friends give me some clothes over the past 4 months and boy has it helped. I have been watching a lot of YouTube Videos for VSG. They remind me that I am not the only one out there going through this. So many of the little things that you don't think about someone else may talk about and you are like "Yeah, that is what's happening to me". I am trying to decide at 4 months out if I want to start doing YouTube Videos. It seems really funny to me to sit and talk to myself. I don't know, I may give it a try.
