Onderland!

I finally saw the numbers I have been waiting and working for.  199.  I actaully re-weighed a couple of times just to be sure.  Yep, 199.  I don't look much different than 2 lbs ago but suddenly I feel skinny.  It is amazing how we just so hung up on numbers.  Regardless, I am pumped!!!

I sound like a broken record but it bears repeating again.  This WLS has saved my life!  I am living and not sitting on the sidelines or couch eating and watching the world go by.  I am active and enjoying life.

I hit the gym at 5:30 a.m. in the morning which in itself is a flipping miracle!  I've never been a work out kind of person.  Then a couple of times a week I take a serious bike ride around the lake.  I love it!!!

I remember all the things I couldn't do over a year ago, tying my shoe, seeing my feet, fitting in a booth, standing for more than 5 minutes, walking up stairs, taking blood pressure meds, not being able to cross my legs, wearing a size 32/34, having a seatbelt extender in my car, being completely miserable.  If you are on this board reading this, you know the drill.

I LOVE LIFE!!!!!!  I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!  151 lbs gone - woo-hoo!!!!
