A new year begins!
Jan 02, 2013
Today is the 2nd day of 2013, I am planning on this year being a great year! I love my tool that I received on 5/22/12, to date I have lost 121 lbs, 40 prior to surgery and 81 since surgery. Sometimes I feel like I am losing slower than others, but other times I feel like I am losing faster than others, I have seen people post about their weight loss and it varies so much for all of us who had surgery around the same time. Therefore I see why we should not compare our journey to the journey of others.
I have many goals that I hope a achieve in 2013 here are a few of them:
Keep on the right track with my weight loss and eating habits, in order to continue to lose.
Hit Onderland! (looking forward to that day! only 32 lbs to go to enter the land of onderland!)
Be in onderland for my 1 year surgiversary!
Get to my goal by 2014 (notice I didn't say by my surgiversary? I want to hit my goals without setting myself up for failure)
Take compliment graciously! Rather than saying something like "thanks, but I still have a long way to go" I need to just say "thank you" and be done with it.
Continue to build my self-confidence, both in my career field and personally.
Continue with the organization of my house that I completed over my vacation! Love an organized house.
Obtain and new and higher position within my career field, I deserve more than I currently have.
Remain a life long learner!
Help others who are curious about WLS by telling them of my experience when/if they ask, encourage those that inquire to do lots of research before making their decision and understand WLS is a personal decision and should not be persuaded by others.
With all that being said, I know there are many more things I want to accomplish in this new year! So, here is to hoping everyone has a great 2013 and may all of us stay on track, utilize our tools, and achieve our goals!
