Checking In.. 7 Months Post-op
Hey All-
I guess it's actually 7 months and 1 day. Just you all to know I'm doing great. I know I need to check in more often, but something I've learned in the past month or so..
You can't pause real life for this journey... you need to learn to incorporate it into your real life. Things.. good and bad are can happen and there's no way for you to stop them. You have to take it all head on and not forget about what you're doing for yourself.. becoming a healthier better version of your old self.. So even though you maybe having a ****ty day.. week.. month or whatever. Remember your plan and the goals you have set for yourself.. and think "DAMN I'm looking good and I'm only going to look better!!" That helps me from making poor choices when I'm not having the greatest time.
As of today I've lost 62% of the weight I originally set to loose... YAY!
I hope you all are having a great weekend. Love you all!

Damn thing won't let me edit...
Just also wanted to add a few NSV's that I've encountered lately:
- I can wrap a regular bath towel around myself with out my "bum bum" as my neice would call it hanging out
- Getting a whole lot more looks from guys... It use to be if I were out with friends someone would come up to that friend and say "hey my buddy things you're really cute" now it's "hey my buddy thing you both are really cute"
- I realized the other day when I was driving that 7 months ago I had to have the seat in my car all the way back and my stomach still got in the way when I was making a turn. Now I actually have had to move my seat up and I still have a good 5 inches or so of space between me and the steering wheel! I can actually see the seat between my legs!!
