Mar 23, 2009

It has been 7 months since my surgery. Well 7 months and almost 2 weeks. I have lost 118 pounds! I am wearing a size 24 in some pants and not quite there yet with the jeans. I haven't been that size since right after high school. I am in the 200's now. I weigh 298 which is unbelievable. I feel like it might be coming off slower for me but I am so thankful and happy for where I am right now. I am really hoping that by this time next year I can start planning to have children! That has been my main goal with this surgery. I want to be a healthy Mom. I want to be healthy for myself too though. Let's see things I can do now that I couldn't before. I can cross my legs, my rings are all falling off, everyone who sees me says my face looks so thin now, I can sit in any booth, I can fit in the chairs that have arms, I can fit in the little plastic summer chairs, I can stand without feeling like I am tired and weighed down. All in all I am just much happier and enjoying life much more now then I did when I was carrying around that additional 118 pounds. What a difference this has made!!!!!
