Five Months

Nov 23, 2009

Five months out and slowwwwwly making progress.  Down 60 pounds now and very close to my first major goal of hitting 220.

It's hard when you see people that had surgery well after you, scream past you in the #'s.  Still, I have to remember that there have been many small victories that didn't happen on the scale this past month.  A few of them are:

I can now do the childs pose in yoga and touch my forehead to the ground comfortably.
I can cross my legs - almost comfortably.
I can fit into a womens size 18 very comfortably and am almost in a size 16
People seem to be complimenting me more and more on how great I look
I was able to buy pantyhose that only had 1 x next to the size... HA HA HA
I wore a dress for the first time in many, many years

It doesn't seem likely that I will be in onederland by the first of the year and that is VERY disappointing.. but maybe by my birthday in January?

Until then, I'm gonna keep on - keeping on and try to remember that God is driving this bus and he gets to pick the speed limit..

Peace
