7 months out already!!!
Hi everyone!
It's hard to believe that it's been nearly 7 months since surgery! This has certainly not been the easiest road travelled but I wouldn't change a single second! I am down a total of 117lbs including 3 weeks of pre-op diet with 21lbs to goal. I still have no idea how to attach pictures so I have put a before and after on my profile.
Thanks everyone! It is incredibly hard to believe how much weight I have lost in such a short time and the reflection in the mirror still has yet to show me the changes. I have found that side by side photos are an incredibly important tool in my journey and they are really the only way to see the difference that 7 months has made. I look at my new clothes every morning wondering how they are possibly going to fit yet somehow they fit perfectly! I am hoping that my brain will catch up eventually and I will have the ability to see what everyone else sees. I literally cried when I looked at the before and after pictures and realized what I have accomplished. I never saw myself as that person and I am so happy that I finally look like the person that I have always been on the inside.
