5 Months Post-Op

Mar 04, 2011

Hello.  It's been awhile since I've been on here.  Well I am down 75 pounds as of 3/4/11 (surgery was 10/13/10) just under 5 months ago.  I feel great and I like what I see in the mirror for the most part.  My therapist told me that some people have a hard time seeing the thinner person in the mirror and I think that is what I am experiencing right now.  I am constantly being told how great I look and it feels nice to hear the compliments but I don't always feel like I deserve it.  My fiance has been really supportive of me lately and he keeps on commenting on how he can't believe how much I have lost.  I like what he has to say but it makes me wonder what would happen if something where to happen and the weight where to go back on.  Would he be disappointed, what would he say, how would he react?  This is the first time in our relationship we have ever talked about my body and my weight and I'm still kind of uncomfortable.  I don't know, guess I just needed to vent.  Anyways, the weight loss has been going good.  The first 60 pounds went really fast and now things are starting to slow up a bit.  I have started working out with kettle bells and I love it.  I also see immediate results in weight loss when I work out so it motivates me to keep moving forward.  The biggest thing that has held me accountable is recording my weight everyday.  It really keeps me focused.  That's all I have for now, take care.
