Major milestone

Apr 24, 2010

I made it to onederland on April 22, 2010.  I stepped on the scale and 199.5 flashed across the screen.  I am so happy.  For the first time since my wls, I was having a problem craving sweets.  I did give in to some temptation and was surprised to see the scale move so quickly anyway.  I guess my last fill really kicked in cause the weight is coming off now.  I am going home Memorial Day weekend for a family reunion.  I am actually excited about it.  I haven't seen any of my family since three weeks after my surgery.  They are going to be in for a shock.  I have lost 71 pounds in just over five months.  Wow.

Last night I couldn't sleep and decided to try on some pants to see how close I was to fitting them.  Shocker, I wore those size 14 pants today and they were very loose.  At three in the morning I was trying on everything in my closet.  Clothes fit that I didn't expect to get into until the summer.  Oh... and I looked damn good.  I love my band.
