Hello October sleeve sista~ You look so gooooooood! You look much happier that is for sure. You have that deer in the headlight look in your before picture, definitely scared. I was scared the night before surgery too!
I really like your outfit. It's so fresh and clean and spring looking! I'll bet you are getting uncomfortable attention from men. That has been hard for me. I keep thinking I must have a booger on my face when they stare, because I can't believe they are looking at me because "maybe" I look nice......
Congrats...you done good!!!

Good to hear from you...Hope you are bouncing back from your gall bladder!
There is definitely an adjustment going on..I don't see the loss in the mirror, I still see my flaws but I can see it is photos...and it sort of freaks me out a little...
I have never been this "small" in my entire adult life so It is kind of like meeting a new me.
I'm curious to see where my body ends up shape wise..so far I am pleased and not too horrified by skin etc...
As for the men folks...I mostly just try and ignore them...till they touch me and then I get freaked...but overall not too bad...

Thanks for asking about my surgery. I am doing soooo much better. My big bounce back came yesterday. I swear, before that, I was getting worried that I would never feel good again. This is because I've felt sickly for a month prior to surgery....the gallbladder was making me feel very sick. I'm relieved to say that I am starting to burst with energy! Still have a tender tummy, but I feel great!
I know what you mean about the mirror versus pictures. I am shocked by photogenic evidence of my weight loss, just as much as I use to be shocked with pictures before surgery. I would stare in disbelief and say "no, I'm not really that fat, am I?"
This journey is unreal!
My skin condition is pretty good to...not horrible at all. I hope it keeps going well over the next 20 pounds of weight loss.
I promise I will post a new picture soon. I can't wait to see how baggy that bathing suit is now. Remember? LOL (see profile)
Again congrats. You look marvelous darling!
