NorCal Meet 13 1/2 Months Post Op...

May 19, 2012

 Hey all my OH friends. Its truly been forever. I'm up here in San Jose, sharing a room with Alison (ABC BROWN) typing away on the FREE internet (oh how I've missed you) just a few hours away from the Meet. 
Last year, I had just had my surgery and was 27 pounds down and now I'm here again, a little more than a year later and just 30 pounds from goal. Insane.
What a year can do right? 
I've been stuck bouncing from 193 to 189 for the past two months. No one said this journey was easy but here I am struggling. I don't want to say struggling, I guess I'm trying to find a balance in eating and food. More than weightloss right now I'm trying to achieve a WAY of eating for the rest of my life. 
Some days I hit, somedays I miss. I'm only human. But I am so happy with my weightloss and how much I have lost.
Being just 30 pounds from goal is surreal and scary but exciting. My whole life I've been either morbidly obese or super obese and to be here in "Over weight" territory is pretty new. I mean, its really nice to walk into a store and know I can shop in the "regular" section. Yesterday, Alison, Jenn (Shagdoll) went trying on clothes and I grabbed all these XL shirts and pants and they all fit too big... lol Its just crazy. 
But all in all life is good. I thank God for everything that he's allowed me to do and I know I can lose this rest of this weight.  
Again, I'm going to focus on eating for life and I know once I'm good with that, the rest of this weight will come off and I will reach 160 pounds.
Everyone Take Care and keep Rocking it.
Kristen
