Scale victory and NSV
I'm two weeks out from my RNY and have lost 25 pounds.
Guys.
That's a quarter of a hundred pounds. That's the size of a 15-month old baby. (I looked that up.) That's the size of a large American badger. (I looked that up too.)
That is more weight than I have ever, ever, EVER lost on ANY of the diets I have EVER been on.
That is A LOT OF WEIGHT!
Not only is there 25 pounds less of me, but I swung by Old Navy today and picked myself up a new pair of jeans. My size 22s were falling off (I had to hold them up by the belt loops as I walked through the mall). My new jeans? A size 18, on sale for $10. Win and win.
I also walked a full mile today for the first time in who knows how long. Oh, and I just had a single scrambled egg for dinner and I am deliciously full.
Best decision ever? I'm beginning to think so.
