Emotional Day for me
I weighed myself this morning and I weighed 199lbs. Which is still a lot but you must understand I have not weighed this much since I was in JR high school. I am now 57. I don't know if I want to cry or just scream with excitement.
It is funny how we can remember how much we weighed at a certain point of our lives. I know I will remember this day and the way I feel today.
No one better say to me I took the easy way out by getting the surgery. It is tough losing weight with the surgery. Everyday you are mindful of what you eat, drink and excercise. Just because you have surgery does not mean it is a cure all. I have struggled for awhile to get to this weight with stalls and my body not wanting to let go of the 200's. It has been frustrating and heart breaking at the same time. But, finally it has come. I know I will weigh a pound or two more in the afternoon, but this morning it said 199. YEA for me.
