Happy Halloween...

Oct 31, 2011

Today a year ago... I was home with my mom, had the worst binge ever, feeling TERRIBLE about myself and debating whether WLS was the right choice for me. I was missing out on life and feeling like shit about myself. So by the end of the night  I officially decided to get the Sleeve. YAY!!!!

Now, a year later and 7 months postop, I'm down 92 pounds!!!! WOO motha fuckin HOO!!!!

So much has changed since my last update, first and foremost I got a new job and its WAY better than my last, present (soon to be X) job. lol I now work at a Tattoo Supply store (thanx lodi for hooking me up) and I freaking love it. My boss is the shit and the hours are awesome, pays good and its close to home... YAY!!! I'm truly counting my blessings. My current job at the theme park is cutting my hours big time so I just gave my two weeks. No more wasting gas for minimum wage.

Life is good, I fit into 14's!!!! OMFG!!!! I think I was 9 the last time I fit into 14's. Its freaking crazy. I have a WAIST, yeah... who knew that existed on me. lol I have bones I thought came missing out of my box... its INSANE. My knees keep clanking together when I lay sideways and my hips keep digging into my matress. I also notice my hands are big for my arms that are now thin, so I'm walking around with these huge man hands. lol

So... I'll learn to love them.

Everything is SURREAL... I guess thats the best word to describe it. I catch my reflection in the window or glass doors at work and I'm like "thats not me." and I do a double take. Life for the "Always been fat" girl is being rattled and I'm taking it one day at a time.

Flirting, getting noticed, people treating me differently is WEIRD. Again, I take it one day at a time, one situation at a time.
WEIRD, WEIRD, WEIRD... Twilight Zone... Or SKINNY ZONE.lol

EveryOne Happy Halloween and Keep Rockin it.
