3 months down and the success is AWESOME!

Today marks my three month anniversary since my RNY surgery.  While I often feel pings of regret that I'm not progressing as quickly as I should, I am also reminded by tangible facts that I AM making great strides to achieving my goals of a healthier, thinner life.

Total weight gone:  53.9 pounds
Tota inches gone:  26
   waist - 3.5 inches
   hips - 9 inches
   chest - 5 inches 
   thighs - 3.5 inches each thigh
   calves - .8 inches each calf
   biceps - 1.5 each bicep

I bought new slacks two weeks ago - three size 16's and four size 14's.  While the 16's are great, the 14's are still tight, although I can zip and button them up.  I expect to comfortably be in them in a short while. 

I'll post new photos tonight for you to see my achievement so far.

It's been an awesome journey so far, and I can only think that I'll continue onward to my goal of 135 pounds by the time Memorial Day arrives next year.

That is fabulous, and you should be very proud.  Keep working your tool and keep up the good work.

Why, thanks!

I am so motivated now to keep up with my weight loss and to drop off all of this excess weight.  I can't wait!

  CONGRATS!!!!!  Keep up the good work...The best is yet to come...

At this point, it's hard to know just how good it is going to get in the future....but I'm thinking it's gonna be pretty dammmmm good.

Thanks for your kind words.

Tracy

 Congratulations!!  I wish you much success!!

Hugs,
Terri

Thanks, Terri!

I calculate that by tomorrow or Saturday, I'll be in the 180's.  I haven't been that weight in a very long time, and I can't wait to get there again.  If I just tackle 10 pounds at a time, I KNOW I can do this...I just know it.

Holy **** Terri look at your new Avatar! WOW Woman!  You go girl! Hugs Kristen

You ARE doing a great job in your progression. In three months you have lost 54 lbs and 26 inches, that is freakin amazing!! So keep it up and youll be at 135 in no time!!

Congrats! 

Why, Thanks!

I am so stoked by the weight loss so far, and can't wait for even more weight to come off.

Let me tell you....this is HARD work, more work than I ever imagined it would be.  But seeing the success so far has made it all worthwhile.  Best of all, I feel GREAT!
