The scales finally dropped below 200. Today I am 199.8, down from 201.8 yesterday. It will probably go back up tomorrow but for today I am claiming it. I will wait to get my century card until it stays at 200 or below for at least 4 days.I can now wear a size 14 pants and jeans (if they stretch) and a large or extra large top. The biggest problem with the top is my batwings. The only thing I can do for them will be surgery which is not on the horizon in the near future.
I have been shopping for a new Easter Outfit but am having a hard time finding anything I like. Most of the dresses & tops have the cap sleeves and I definitely need longer sleeves. I really didn't want to buy another piece but it looks like if I get anything I will have to. I am really trying to not spend any more on clothes than I have to. I am about 30 lbs from my surgeon's goal for expected weight loss.
I will be happy if I lose those 30 lbs but I really would like to lose 50. I think anything more than that would be too much for me. My mother-in-law keeps telling me I should not get below a size 12. She said I wouldn't be me any more if I did. LOL My husband will only say that he wants me to be healthy. He loves me no matter what size I am.
I am hoping to be able to start exercising soon. I found the source of my sciaitia is a slipped vertebra and am getting epidural shots to try to fix the nerve. If that doesn't work I may have to have back surgery. I am hoping and praying the the shots work. I go back for the second one next week.
