Hello!

I can't believe I haven't written since June....seems like it has been forever!

Well, life is getting better every day and I am feeling so much healthier and happier!! I am down 75 lbs all together now and I couldn't be happier! I can actually do some of the things that I used to dread doing......like putting socks on, painting my own toe nails, walking with out passing out, house cleaning for longer than 5 mins without feeling like dying. I never imagined that I would feel so much better so quickly, I am averaging about 3 lbs per week and that makes me happy!

I have a short term goal in mind.....100 lbs by Halloween for sure.....I am giving myself a little longer just in case my body decides to plateau I know that that can happen so I want to be realistic about it. Otherwise, I think I can do it by September (if I work hard, fingers crossed!!).

I hope everyone is doing great and enjoying the wonderful weather!

I know that for me, this was the best decision I have made for myself. I know it was rough in the beginning but the struggles and pain have been so worth it for me. I can actually see that I have a waist...it has been a while since I was acquainted with that!

I am glad that my hubby finally sees that it was good for me to do this, he hasn't ever been on board with this whole decision. He actually commented to me the other day "so you are losing your back boobs.....problem is that you are losing your front ones too!" Ya, he's a funny guy right? I told him he can wear my bras when they get too big for me, he seems to be finding the boobs that I am losing!! lol

I wish everyone the best of luck and to anyone considering this surgery, do it you won't regret it. It is so nice to be getting smaller.....I will do everything in my power to never end up hugely obscenely obese again. Lesson learned.

Take care,

Karen
