Monday is your day!
Just remember you
are on the journey
of a lifetime. Try
to enjoy every
minute. It may sound
weird now, but know
that you are cared
for and prayed for
here, and all too
soon this will be
but a memory and you
will be an
inspiration to
someone else. I am
waiting for you on
the losers' bench!
10 months update Wow, I must say that I can't believe that its been 10 months since I had wls surgery. It has been a journey like no other, but I would do it again if I had to. My current weight is 190 pounds. I cant remember the last time I weighed 190 lbs. However, I do remember being like 12 or 13 years old weighing 175 pounds. N\ow here I am 24 years old and trying to get back down to that size. I goal has fluctuated between 170 and 180 lbs. I like were I am now but I really need to get in the gym and lift some weights. I must admit that I have gotten a lil comfortable and lazy and I haven't worked out in a while. Its been a struggle. I need some encouragement and motivation. My friends and family have been very supportive and are trying to motivate me buts its not working. Im just being soooo lazy. Maybe with the weather change I would become more motivated to go to the gym. We shall see.
I'm getting a lil irritated with people who are telling me that I've lost too much weight. I think I look good, I mean Im not trying to be conceited but I dont think I have that sickly look. I dont know, what do you think???
Before surgery, I didnt think I would be interested in plastic surgrey but now that Im 10 months out, I been thinking alot about it. I know my insurance wouldnt cover that so it'll be completely out of pocket but its has been something that I've been considering. Im just a lil dissatisfied with my breast and my chunky thighs. When people say you look a lot different with you clothes off, its soooo true. Im not trying to scare anyone who is cinsidering wls surgrey, Im just being real. But not everyone will have the same concerns or issues with their body, everyone is different. But knowing what I know now about how I look and how I feel I still think I made the right choice about having wls and would do it again in a heart beat.
Ive been fortunate enough to not have any complications and I pray to God that it stays that way. Till next time, peace!
