    I'm amazed at how fast the weight is dropping .  Small victories , I fit into a pair of pants I haven't worn for about 2 yrs . Still tight, but I was able to get them on and buttoned !   My seat belt in the car is looser.  No back pain !  A lot more energy.   I can take my toddlers to the park , alone .  Before WLS I had to have a friend go with me because I just couldn't stand very long.    

 

   My next goal , wear my wedding ring. It's been sitting in it's pretty box since 2008 .  I wore it for the first year of our marriage . I never wanted to get it sized because I thought I'd lose the weight .  Never did. Just gained .  So now it's actually going to happen !  Very excited about that victory !

Congratulations! It feels so good to get the NSVs that really are big ones when you think about it. Keep it up! :)

Such awesome victories. I'm 3 weeks out and tummy is still a little swollen and sensitive. I can't imagine trying to get jeans buttoned. I stay in comfy Jammie's and yoga pants still

 What tremendous success you have had so quickly.   I guess I should be jealous, but I'm not, because I know the Miracle is happening as it should in God's timetable.  God Bless !!

well I was over 100 lbs heavier than you .  Guess those of us that weigh so much lose faster .   I have a really long journey ahead of me ! But am thankful I started with a sprint !

Firstly, congrats on your weight loss thus far. Secondly, I share the same goal with regards to my wedding ring. I can get mine below the knuckle now just not quite down to where it needs to be.  I refused to get mine sized too. It will fit again. WE CAN DO IT!! Best wishes on your continuing journey :)
