Welcome, Spring!

Mar 27, 2008

We flew to Houston on 3/7 for Daniel's wedding.  First time I've flown since losing weight.  It was actually a pleasant experience, not needing to embarass myself by asking the flight attendant for the extension piece of the seatbelt...buckling the regular belt, and pulling it to TIGHTEN it!  What a wonderful feeling!

The Wedding was beautiful, and I've added a few pictures from the occasion.  My dress is a size 16P, and I was actually happy to have my picture taken, rather than hiding behind everyone/everything else.

Johnny and I celebrated our 9th anniversary on 3/20, and went to our favorite restaurant, the Olive Garden.  One bowl of Pasta Fagouli soup, a little salad, and 1/2 of a bread stick....big difference from a year ago!  I could eat the bowl of salad, 3 bowls of soup, and polish off about 6 bread sticks!  I'm currently at 178#, and wearing a size 14.  

Spring Break was spent at Myrtle Beach.  Windy, but had a wonderful time!  Heading to Seattle in two weeks to visit friends that I haven't seen since I've lost weight...looking forward to getting more pictures for my before/after collection!

Easter is a time of New Life, and I sure am enjoying mine!  I thank God and Dr. Mailapur for giving me a new start, and my family for helping me adjust in the critical first year.  I have my 1 year follow-up on April Fool's day.  No jokes for me!
