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!
