This is way overdue. I've been so busy with so many things that I haven't kept up on my blogging. I weigh in tomorrow. I'm really amazed at everything my body is doing. Each day I feel stronger inside and out. I feel more confident, more feeling of worth. My clothes are falling off me which makes me so excited. I'm trying to hold off on buying anything right now until I get a little lower in weight. Some things I have already gave to my best friend.
I cannot wait to get out of all these clothes. I am really looking forward to shopping in any store like most people. I cannot wait to not worry about flying if I need an extra seat or not. I have had a couple NSV's (non-scale victories). I've been able to sit in a booth without struggle or worrying that I can't get in and I'm crammed. I also got my blood pressure reduced twice.
My blood work has been really good. I had to up my intake of iron and vitamin C to two of each a day...but that's okay with me. I want to be healthy as can be. Whatever it takes. I'm so glad that I've made this decision. I don't regret going through the pain after the surgery or the first week or two...this is SAVING MY LIFE! And that is the greatest gift I can give myself, and my family.
