Another OMGGGGGG Moment

Jan 21, 2010

Ok so last night I was preparing to go swimming but realized I had not bought a swimsuit since last year which was a size 18/20.  What was I going to do?  Well, my 16 year old had a two piece from last summer that was a large, do I dare try it?  Yes, what the heck!  OMGGGGG it fit and didnt look bad.  I got an amazing look at what my WLS tool had done for me.  Besides some saggy skin in the thigh and butt area, I didnt look too bad.  In fact, I'd consider wearing a swimsuit in public with no embarrassment.  So that goal has been accomplished, a two piece swimsuit (minus that skirt thing that I was used to) in public.  Although I didnt get a chance to go swimming last night, I am overjoyed that I could have.  What a wow moment for me. 

All I can say again is to be patient and use your tool to the best of your ability. I still have a lot of work to do, I may even be able to do this without any cosmetic surger, well, maybe a lift and augementation for sure.  I thought my body would be way worse, but its not so bad and I'm actually excited....thank you all again for your encouraging words.  I am so glad to be connected to some of the most wonderful women and men in the world..Be blessed!

The scale said 179 this morning, WOW!

Jan 19, 2010

OMG one of my biggest wow moments this to date happened this morning.  My 16 year old came up to my room and asked if I had a shirt she could wear with her outfit...Did you hear me?  My 16 year old and I are sharing clothes!So not only can we fit the same tops, she thinks my tops are cute enough to wear.  She now treats me like her doll, when I go out she gets me dressed and I absolutely love it.  She's a junior 9 and I'm a misses 10...Cant do juniors yet, not really planning on it but if and when it happens it will be fine with me...Wow, who would have thought in 5 months I would be sharing clothes with my kids.  My 13 year old and 16 year old are almost the same size so nonetheless, thanks Essie for the black leggins, I needed them to wear with a killer outfit..That seems so crazy, I'm sharing clothes with my kids never in the history of motherhood has that happned.  I am so excited....29lbs til my goal weight of 150.  Unbelievable. 

I know sometimes you question if you have done the right thing or not.  The weight seems to be coming off slow but I promise you, it will come off.  Dont stress yourself about someone elses loss.  You dont know what they have had to go thru in order to get there.  I am a witness, I dont go to the gym everyday like I should.  As a matter of fact, I havent been since November.  I'm not condoning this behavior but its the truth.  I would be less than if I lied and say that I am doing exactly everything I should because I'm not.   I pray that my behaviors are activated again because I want to be successful long term...Nonetheless, I feel much better.  I went to the Dr yesterday and for the first time I didnt tell them their scale was lying, aint that something?

Be blessed yall!

85lbs gone but so much more gained!!

Jan 07, 2010

Today is one of the happiest days of my life.  One of my goals for post surgery was to have a job that I love to go to everyday.  Well on January 19, 2010 that goal will be met.  I have not complete my book yet but this opportunity will allow me the creativity to do just that.  On the 19th I will be launching ALL(n)1 Premier Staffing.  I have been given, yes I said, given office space on the 19th floor of one of the many high rise building downtown Atlanta, and did I mention it was given to me?  No rent for as long as I need the space...Favor aint fair they say. I bless God for the opportunity that I may not have gotten pre surgery. I know that I deserve this break and the opportunities that WLS has afforded me are now paying off...Wow, who would have ever thought 85lbs would reveal so much.  The confidence is thru the roof and it is my expecation that I will succeed in this industry...Thank you to all that have supported me thru all of these twists and turns...you know you you are! I love you all!  If you are in the Atlanta and need a job...hollar at your girl!  LOL
