Six months post op tomorrow!

It has been an amazing journey so far. Blessed beyond compare and so thankful I have not had any complications. Excited to weigh in next Wed at my 6 month appointment. I only weigh in at the doctor's office. I had lost 92 pounds as of a week or so ago. My original goal was 100 pounds by 6 months. Do not think I will hit that, but I will be close. :O)
Might get brave and take pictures this weekend. Trying to find a flattering outfit. Might just end up taking them in a church outfit. Mirror isn't always true for me, mental games in my head. Hoping to see a huge difference in the pics. Will post if I can figure out how.
Thanks for all the encouragement I find on OH.

“Not many of us are living at our best. We linger in the lowlands because we are afraid to climb the mountains. The steepness and ruggedness dismay us, and so we stay in the misty valleys and do not learn the mystery of the hills. We do not know what we lose in our self indulgence. What glory awaits us if only we had the courage for the mountain climb. What blessing we should find if only we would move to the uplands of God.? JRM

Okay, I will post pics next week, if I can get them to post. I will at least download to my profile and post that I did that. We will see if my tech skills can accomplish that. Thanks!

Daily weigh in would kill me. My water weight fluctuates too much still to do that. Once I hit goal, I will weigh in weekly at home. I am determined not to let the scale dictate my life. It is good to check in, but I would get obsessed, so I keep that in check by only weighing in at the doctor's office. I go there every month or so, even if I do not have an appointment. They have a store where I buy protein chips and it is not too far away, so I can do it on my lunch hour. :O)
