5 months Post-op, 95 lbs Gone Forever!
Nov 11, 2009
I'm 5 months post op today and I couldn't feel any better, well maybe if I was on target with my protein intake. HeHeHe. But even with the lack of Protein I've been feeling great. I can't believe it has been 95 lbs lost in 5 months! Isn't that the craziest thing? I still can't grasp the reality of it. I sure did have a few WOW moments this past weekend when I went shopping for some jeans. I was a size 26-28 before RNY surgery and before this past weekend I was squeezing into size 18. I went to Target first to shop their clearance rack because their prices are great. I grabbed a pair of jeans in size 18 and they were loose. ??? I couldn't believe it! I was looking good in a size 16, 16? WTF? I hadn't seen size 16 since I was a freshman in High School! Size 16 stretch boot cut no gap waist jeans from Target are the best! Then I went to Torrid because I had a $10 coupon I wanted to use and tried on a size 16 denim skirt. WTF? Size 16 at Torrid fit me a little loose. I fit into a size 14 black stretch denim skirt! Size 14? I hadn't wore that size since middle school! I got so excited I tried on a top too. I figured a size 1 (14-16) would fit. Nope, that was a bit loose. A size 0? I couldn't believe I was wearing a size 0 (10-12). Pretty soon I'll be too small for Torrid. When I went to the cash register at Torrid to pay for my top and skirt I was crying and laughing all at the same time, i was an emotional mess. The cashier didn't know what to do or say,she was like "are you OK?" I explained to her why I was so happy and she just laughed and almost cried with me. I felt like such a fool when I got home but I couldn't control my emotions. LOL!
