I can't believe that tomorrow will be 2 weeks out for me. Today, I actually had to look at the calendar to make sure it's only been that long! I feel great. The only thing is by night, I'm exhausted! I sleep great every night so that helps. 

Well, today I had 3 huge NSVs. I'm shocked really because it seems like this moving quick. Now granted, I know about the stalls so I'm just going to go with it! Lol. 

The first big nsv for me was that I went back to the Y. This was huge for me. We pay monthly , but I do not use it. The rest of my family does , but I didn't. I lost weight 2 yrs ago and got to my lowest of 208 and then all hell broke lose. I was put on Zolofoft and started gaining a lot! When I was losing, I was at the Y all the time! I took classes, Zumba , kickboxing, weightlifting, etc. then boom! 

I became so ashamed, I just didn't go. It was a bad time.  

At my consultation, I weighed 270 in January. Well, today, I walked in, head held high. I felt good! Granted my husband was with me encouraging and stopping me from pushing myself too hard the first day back. Lol. But I did it! 

The second nsv was I had a pair of American Eagle jeans I loved that I haven't wore in the 2 yrs! Today, I tried them on. I can get them on. Granted I'm poured in them, and a huge muffin top so I won't wear them out yet, but I Am thrilled I can zip them!! 

Last but not least....I made it to the 220s!!! I am 229.0! This was a big deal to me because I feel I'm on my way considering where I was in January. 

The day of sugery, I weighed 241, but did gain over the course of the time in the hospital.

I cant believe all this in a short time. Thank you all for the encouragement along the way. 

To all the new people waiting to be sleeved- it's so worth it! I'm so glad I did this.

Thanks Kelly you are always encouraging! I appreciate it.

I only walked at the gym so I didn't go " crazy" lol. My hubby said that he wanted us to come back tomorrow so I needed to save my energy! My surgeon said I could lift light, but I'm too weak yet, I know that. So I am taking that really slow.
