About me

My name is Sheila and I'm 29 years old. I have lived on the Oregon Coast my whole life. I have a sister who is 25 years old. I am an Aunt to two little girls who are 3 years old. My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years. I would love for people to follow my journey and hopefully get inspired.

I have been heavy my whole life. I finally decided to do something about it and recently had the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy done on 6/4/12. It is one of the best things I have done in my life. I started the whole process of having surgery in November 2011. At the time I weighed 227 lbs. The day of surgery I weighed 201 lbs. During the 6 months of waiting for surgery I quit drinking soda and started to eat more healthy. Was the hardest thing ever, but I did it and still am doing it. People say that having this surgery is the easy way out. Please let me assure you there is nothing easy about this. If your not sure what the surgery is you can Google Vertical Sleeve Surgery and there are videos and information on the surgery. I now weigh 185 lbs, but I am burning muscle instead of fat. It is very important for me to keep as much muscle as I can. Getting this surgery done will only take you far. I know I have the power in myself to do this. I want to be able to do all the things in life I have always wanted to do.

Gonna get it done

So I was doing great on my workouts with ChaLean Extreme, but some things happen in life and I got off schedule. I am going to be restarting my workouts on the 13th(Monday). I need to get back on track. I noticed within the first week of ChaLean Extreme that I was starting to get muscles and I felt stronger. The weights I was using was a 3 lbs that I started out with by the end of the week I was using a 5 lbs. It may not be a lot to some people, but for me I have no muscle what so ever. I owe it to myself to complete the full 90 days. For Halloween I plan on being a sexy cat. I would love more than anything to be fit for the costume. So here I go trying it again. I will try and do daily updates so y'all can follow along. Hopefully you can join me.
