Almost There!
Feb 18, 2013
Wow it has been a long time since I have wrote anything....
I cant believe in 2 months I will be celebrating my 2 year anniversary. What a journey this has been. I wouldnt change a thing. I am so pleased with my descision. I feel great and according to alot of people I look great too. 
Theres a lot of wish I would have....But I cant change that all I can do is push forward and start making better descisions.
I weighed in at 140 this morning! To think 2 years ago I weighed 297, hard to believe Ive come this far...I never thought I would succeed and thruthfully I dont think my Dr. did either lol I cant wait to see him in April. I know he will be stunned.
My goal is to get to 130 and Im determined to get there by my appt. I started working out at home instead of going to the gym. I am working 3 shift and its just easier for me to do it at home. Plus i get several workouts in through out the day. I have a lot of toning to do but thruthfully I dont look to bad so people have told me. People seemed shocked when I tell them I had the VSG because they say I look healthy and my skin dont hang.
I bought a pair of jeans that are a size 3/4 , I got these as my goal jeans and hopefully one day fit into them. Well guess what that day has arrived. Ya they are snug but I cant tell you how excited I was to get them on! The last pics I posted I have them on. When I started this journey I was wearing a tight 24 and thats just so unbelievable.
I have had so many people contact me thru here because they say Im there inspiration. Wow you dont know how that makes me feel. But as I tell them I am a horrible example of anything. I didnt follow my Dr. advice and looking back now I wish I would have but starting now Im back on track.
At first I was ashamed to tell people I had to have surgery to lose weight. But now I talk about it to who ever will listen to me. I love talking about my surgery. It was the best descision I have ever made.
Well I will try to keep up with my journaling on here. I dont have much time as they say Im out living my life..Making up for years when all I did was hide behind the computer.
Have a great day OH!
