So, the 21st was my two month surgiversary. I keep trying to be realistic to myself and remind myself that this is not a quick process, and if I stick to my plan, the results will definitely be there. In saying that, I don't torture myself by stepping on the scales every day. Hell, sometimes a week goes by and I completely forget to weigh. I stepped on the scale today, and saw that I had a total loss of 89 lbs...with only 87 lbs to get to my goal.

I vowed I wouldn't post about my progess until I had lost 100 lbs (that was going to be my first big landmark)...but I couldn't contain my excitement.

I see myself in the mirror every day, so the loss seems so slow...but I definitely notice it in my clothes and such.

NOT AN ATTENTION ***** I PROMISE...but I will post pictures soon. ;)

Haha! I don't know about all that, now! ;)

It is strange, tho...because I have tried EVERYTHING before WLS, and had absolutely no luck at all dropping any weight. Congrats to your boyfriend! :D
