Wow, I'm wide awake this morning.   Trying to figure out what I should go and do today.   I do work tonight, but I have the whole day ahead of me.  Today is my 28th birthday, and yesterday I celebrated my 3 year wedding anniversary.   My hubby and I had a nice dinner at red lobster then we watched the new movie The Proposal.  It was such a good movie.  It's funny cuz in a month him and I have to do a similiar interigation interview thing at the immigration office also so he can get his green card.    We so related to the movie.  I'm feeling better than I have in years.  Tomorrow I have my three month checkup with surgeon.  I'm gonna tell him he gave me the best birthday present ever.   I had a HUGE wow moment the other day.   My hubby, little girl and I are going to our friends wedding this weekend.  We had to go shopping for all our wedding attire.  I went into dressbarn and got to shop in the misses sizes and not the other side that had plus.  I bought the cutest fancy dress that was a size 15-16.    I'm definetly going to take some pictures that day.  I can't believe that I got to buy a dress smaller than when I went to my high school prom.  I think that dress was an 18-20.  This dress is fancy like a prom dress so I feel like a teenager all over again, I can't wait to get it on and go to this wedding.  I bought the little black high heels to go with it also.    I also have to celebrate that I did make it to onederland a couple days ago.  I officially weight 198.  So I'm not in the 200's again and I hope I never ever see those numbers again on the scale.  Another WOW moment, geez I'm full of them this morning.  My parents got me a brand new mountain bike for my birthday.  I haven't rode a bike in years.   They surprised me yesterday and told me and hubby to stop by, there was the new bike sittin out in the yard waiting for me.  I rode it a couple of laps around my parents neighborhood.  I was alittle shacky cuz its been years.   I now have a bike I can ride for excercise.  I plan on trying one of these days to ride it to the hospital where I work instead of driving.  I live about 3 miles away from my job.  I better do it soon cuz in wyoming it will start snowing here in a few months. Like in October so I have a good two-three months to try and get myself into riding to work instead of driving.     Wow,  I'm so happy,  I haven't felt so happy and full of life in so long.  We all deserve to live our lives to the fullest and the weight is what set us all back.  It's time to get out there and enjoy each day to the fullest.   To everyone whos had surgery you know what I'm talking about, for people getting ready to start their journeys I tell you this is the smartest thing u can do for yourself to get your life finally back.   Take care everybody-Crystal

Well, I haven't blogged in forever.  I wanted to wait until I hit wonderful onderland before I busted out with a blog about it.  So far I'm at 200 lbs.  I wanted to be in onederland by July 27th my 28th b-day.  I still might make it.  Today I found out I can fit into a size 15 jeans.  Haven't been in this size in years.  I'm so thankful for each day that has been made even better and better.  This surgery was the life saver for me.  I've noticed that I've come out of my shell alot.  I feel more confident and happy all the time.  Everything is getting better.   I have more energy at work and I think I'm more productive.  I can even work all the overtime I want  and still have a decent amount of energy.   I was getting lazy there for awhile when I was at my heaviest.  I'm making more friends and opening up to more to people.    I plan on going out with my hubby tomorrow night.  Right now my town is filled with thousands of tourist for the big DADDY OF EM ALL frontier days rodeo.  We are going to the rodeo tomorrow then going out to celebrate with friends.  I want to have a drink or two but I have to think of something not to bad.  Maybe a shot or two of tequilla :)   I'm celebrating alot tomorrow night.  My 3 year wedding anniversary, my 28th b-day, and a few girls from work it's also their b-days.   I'm going all out and going party hard tomorrow night.  I will wear my size 15 jeans out, and some black sexy lace-up heels I bought.  I haven't worn heels in 10 years.    I hope everyone of you is doing great.   Take care everybody -Crystal
