I know that I haven't posted in months, but I have been extremely busy. But all is well, well actually all was well until June 25, 2009. The day my sweet Michael Jackson passed away. That was the worst day of my life and I am still crying. It saddens me to know that such a loving and kind person is no longer in a world that so desperately needs him. I am so hurt.

However, as a result of Michael's passing, I've decided to start a foundation, Stop the Hurt. Start the Healing. And our mission is to continue Michael's legacy of giving to the less fortunate. I think Michael would be proud. Please check out my website, stopthehurtstartthehealing.org and you can also find me on Facebook search for Sheila Guerrero and while on Facebook please join the foundation's group and it is listed as Stop the Hurt Start the Healing.

I am also excited because we're having our First Annual Stop the Hurt Start the Healing Food and Clothes drive on August 29, 2009 to celebrate what would have been Michael's 51st birthday. All donation and proceeds will be given to the Memphis Union Mission at 100%.

As for band news, I'd rather not go there. LOL! It will be three years on January 11th and I've only had three fills. And I can EAT everything with no problem!! I am scared that my band may have eroded !! I pray that it hasn't...but I have an appointment on August 31st. So wish me luck!!

I pray all is GREAT with everyone!!!

God Bless! ]]> sheilamj1fan http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog11507.html http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog8077.html Sun, 11 Jan 2009 20:13:53 GMT As I was running this morning it hit me that today is my two year Baniversary!!!

Sooooo much has changed since then and I do mean SOOO much. But I thank God that most of the changes has been good changes. However there were others that were bad and scary. Just to elaborate a little my job was relocated and I had to find another, but thankfully I found one a week later. On a more personal note I have maintained my weight and exercise for almost two years. Although I am not at my goal of 170 I am working really hard on accomplishing that goal by January 11th 2009. In a few hours I will begin a new chapter in my life and I must admit that I am looking for to leaving a lot of people in 2008. I am looking forward to not being too nice, don't get me wrong, but when I say that I look forward to not being too nice, I mean to people that do NOT deserve me or my kindness....can you believe a very special person that I hold close to my heart said that me being too nice was "wierd" I was atonished! I'm like damn shivery is dead indeed! But that person is one of the ones that I plan on leaving in 2008(but I will need strength). Anyway I am getting to windy here so I wish everyone a Happy and FULL New Year(the #9 means fullness and FAT in the Hebrew language(I hope I got that right)) meaning that one will be full of blessings and it also means re-establishment and return. I expect God to re-establish me in 2009 and give me a return on everything that I have lost in the past years!!So Happy New Year and great blessings!!!

Be blessed!:thumbup: ]]> sheilamj1fan http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog7969.html http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog7833.html Mon, 15 Dec 2008 02:48:27 GMT Wow! Where did the year go! I can't believe that it is almost my 2 year band anniversary!!! Lord! But I thank God that I have not had any problems!! I am really trying hard to meet my goal by 1/11/09 without RESTRICTION:angry_smile:!!!! But I have been in range of it....so I will see! Anyway I hope all is well with everyone!

God Bless!

I have been meaning to blog, but I have been so busy lately. But a few weeks ago I had my first PB!! It was after 230am (shouldn't have been eating that late!) and I was eat a corn dog, I think I may have been eating too fast. And I felt something that was maybe a little stuck. And then it happened and I was sooooooooo scared!!! OMG!!! But afterward I decided not to finish my food and I went to bed. I don't ever want that to happen again!

Be blessed! ]]> sheilamj1fan http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog7122.html http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog6659.html Fri, 25 Jul 2008 19:12:39 GMT Hi Everyone,

I have to get this weightloss thing going again. So I've decided to do the pre-opt diet. Even though I go for my 3rd fill on 7/31 (who knows what will happen). I haven't had a fill since August 1, 2007. So I must say that I've done pretty good!

Okay today is my 1st day of liquids:

SF Jello
Better Than Boullion broth
Protein Shake

Be blessed! ]]> sheilamj1fan http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog6659.html http://www.lapbandtalk.com/blogs/10521/blog6632.html Wed, 23 Jul 2008 16:05:54 GMT Or should I say surprise, surprise. I went on 7/17 for my 3rd fill and after arriving I was told that Dr. T was running late and that he will be in around 1pm. Well my appointment was at 10:15 so I decided to stay. Well after waitin two hours I was told that he wasn't coming in at all!!:cursing: So they rescheduled my fill for 7/31, I was so mad! So hopefully nothing will interfere next week! I need a fill bad!!!

Well I've decided to check in since it has been a while. Well I'm about to wrap up the fall semester at school(THANK YOU JESUS!!) Now I can focus on my exercise. I do have somewhat of a trainer...I've been stuck at 183 for three months. I am vowing to be at my goal by January 11th. I go for my third fill on 12/19 (WOOHOO!). I can basically eat anything!! But I during the week I don't eat any solid food, and I have my protein shake (sugarfree choc syrup, sugarfree Blue Bell Great Divide, peanut butter, ice, and choc protein powder). It's my wanna be Reese's Peanut Butter cup shake. I do need to get more water in, I try to work out during the week, but it has been hard with work and school full time. Well I fell out because my sugar level was extremely low and I have been "trying" to eat more, but during the week I refuse too. I know that it is not healthy, but I will not gain back the weight I lost!!! NOT AT ALL!! Anyway I am suppose to be studying for a final exam in the morning. but this site helps me get motivated. I hope everyone is doing awesome!!

It's been awhile since I've been here. However, everything is going well...I've been taking Lipo6 and I can't tell a difference. I think it's because my workouts have been less and I've been eating a bit (that'll do it), but the good news is I haven't gained!! Anyway, today is my fourth day on liquids. As much as I hated this phase in the beginning it's working out good this time around for some reason. Maybe I am anxious about my 2 year anniversary on 10/1 and my birthday on 11/4. So I'm hoping I will be down about five pounds by Sunday when I weigh:embarassed:!! I just need to lose 16 MORE!!:faint: I think I can, I know I can...I CAN!!!
