It's been a long time!

Nov 04, 2011

Good Afternoon OH'ers.  A lot has happened since March 2011.  I was finally done with hospitals May 2011 and am completely healed now!  I am living a wonderful life now.  I am able to run around with my children and fit in airplane seats :-).  I started out if I can remember at 348lbs and now I am down to 204.5.  My goal is to be at 170, but my husband is asking me to "stop" because I am fading away .  One thing I have found during this journey is that marriages really don't last too long after the weight is off.  I beg to differ.  My husband and I are much closer and more in love today than we were 16 yrs ago.  He hung in there when I was really sick and he is hanging in there while I am shopping.  I was a size 26/28 almost in a 30 and now I am rocking a 14.  I bought a pair of shoes yesterday and they were an 8.5.  I was wearing a 10.  I have given all of my clothes away and started working on a new wardrobe.  It's not easy because I don't stay in any size too long.  I went from an 18 to a 14.  Totally missing the 16's. 

Just wanted to say that life gets better.  I didn't think that it would, but I praise God that he brought me out without a doubt and I can praise him in the dance a little longer now that I am literally half of a person.

Have a wonderful day,

Roberta
