I've lost 50 pounds!!

I got on the scale this morning and I've lost 17 pounds since my surgery 2 weeks ago.  That brings my total to 50 pounds.  What a fantastic feeling.  I've gone from a 22 to a snug 14.  I haven't bought any new clothes but my old ones are falling off.  I went to the store just to see what size I was now.  I just wanted to share my happy news. 

Congrats to you, that is SOOOOO COOL : )

yipee!!!! you'll be a hot mama by the end of the year!!!

That is great news.  I can't wait to join you on the loser's bench.

That is great Kelly!!!  I can't wait to see you again.  Are you going to the support group meeting on Saturday?   How was your check up with the doctor?  I am so tired of protein drinks I am ready for something else that is not sweet.   I am glad you are doing well.

I'm tired of the sweetness too.  Tonight I opened a canned of chopped tomatoes into a sauecepan...added a packet of splenda, italian spices, a little salt and pepper, and some minced garlic.  I let it simmer for a while and even added a splash of water when it looked a little thick. 
The smell alone made me feel better. I notice that the smell of good food makes me hungry.
Before serving it, I pureed it with my hand blender to make it runny. It was heaven. I have leftovers for a few days. 

Congrats Kelly!! That is fantastic news. Keep up the great work.

Kelly Thats wonderful, I am so happy for you. Your doing an awesome job working that tool you have. Keep it up and you will be at goal in no time at all. Keep that happy news coming and be careful jumping up and down or you might really loose your pants.   Have a wonderful day.

As I have always said, there is nothing that tastes as good as wearing a smaller size, or was it, being a smaller size.  I don't know I wrote it so long ago I forget, but HORRAY FOR YOU!!!!  Enjoy the ride and hold on tight, it only gets better sweetie pie Love U, Diane
