HALF WAY TO GOAL!!!!
I've been waiting to be able to post this for the past few days, but I couldn't get rid of that 1 pesky pound to hit it..
FINALLY!!! Today is the day!! I'm soo flipping excited. I have never lost this much weight in my entire life. I'm down 64lbs since surgery which is an average of 12.8 lbs per month!
I'm also 1 day short of my 5 month surgiversary.. I'd love at my 6 month to be able to post - 100lbs!!
This is surgery is the best thing I could have ever done for myself. It's always easy for me.. I do have struggles.. those old eating habits try to find their evil way out of the closet quite frequently.
Here are a couple things I have figured out are key for me:
PLAN PLAN PLAN.. I plan 90% of meals... Every Sunday I prepare all my meals for the week. That way if those eating habits peek out I can sometimes literally tell myself, "NO KELBY! You're sticking to your plan. You know that if you just eat what you planned you're still going to be satisfied and you'll save yourself all that frustration with the scale!" Yep.. I talk to myself a lot.. hehe
Along with plan.. MEASURE your portions whenever your able to. I'm not at the point of eye balling and feel like I loose control easily even on the good stuff if I don't have it measured out.
Listen to the vets out here.. THEY KNOW THEIR **** Sometimes tough love is given on here, but it's not to offend you or make you feel like you're a complete idiot... it's because everyone on here only wants to see everyone succeed. I know I'm thankful for the tough love I was given by them and it's only made me "do better" on my journey and keep me straight on the road.
All of you are SOO amazing and I just want to thank you all of the support you've given me. Like I've said before this OH community is like my own little family and I LOVE YOU ALL!!

the start of my brand new life was on 5/28/10
I figure in more than just this journey.. what's the point of having a crappy attitude? It doesn't get you anywhere faster than a positive one!!!

Everyone needs that tough love too, it is better that way, it might be hard to hear BUT, it makes you THINK.. I have had a lot of tough love lately with things in my life, and I have been able to look at that, and realize what I was doing or did, and it has helped me out greatly.
Thanks,
Susan
