Life is amazing!
I just wanted to take the time to express how amazing my life has become. I am 3 months out and I have lost 60 lbs! So crazy to even say that! I went from a size 28/32 and now I just put on a pair of size 20's 2 days ago! I cant even believe it. I went for a 2 mile walk yesterday and I didnt break a sweat or lose my breath. I used to think that I was so much of a tomboy that it just wasnt in my DNA to cross my legs... and now I cant sit down without crossing them (who woulda thunk?) I was just to fat! I never realized that my weight was causing me to be a tomboy. I actually loove heels and dresses now! Hmmmmm..... I can lay on my stomach again.... I can go the entire day without sitting on my ass!... My kids enjoy me rollin on the floor and running around playing with them! ( That is the most amazing feeling!) .....I have about 6-8 inches between me and my steering wheel! OK .. The littlest things are the things you notice.. I am looking forward to many more of these moments in my new life! Thank you Dr. Ali for giving me a new shot at this incredible life!
Also.. I am looking forward to being more comfortable with my body so I can continue my tattoo collection! WOOHOO!

Congrats Karleigh! You are doing amazing!!
I'm with you on most of that!! I LOVE rolling on the floor now...and not struggling to get up! I LOVE running (RUNNING???) after my daughter & listening to her laugh and laugh. Its great.
I can see so much more happening now that the first few months are over...I can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel!!
Good luck!!

60 lbs that is GREAT! This is one of the reason's I love this site. Successes like this is what keeps me going through all of the doctor visits and insurance bureaucracy, because one day I know that when I lose 20, 40, 60 lbs I too will be excited and those little things are a HUGE deal, they make that difference between surviving and living! I can't wait to cross my legs again and wear some sex high heels. More success is coming your way Congrats!
