A new year and nearly 10 months post-op!
Dec 29, 2008
As the new year is upon us, I am taking some time to reflect on this wild ride I started on last March. When I began this journey I weighed 261 pounds. This morning I stepped on the scale, (fully clothed) and weighed 199! My weight loss has been slow compared to some others, but I think that I has been just right for me.This time last year, I was depressed and hating life. I hated shopping for clothes, and I never wanted to go out. One year later, the new year feels full of possibilities. I still have 49 pounds to lose before I reach my goal, but from where I stand now, that goal is obtainable. I might not get there before my bandiversary, but I will get there before my 2nd one!
It feels good to wear "Normal" sized clothes. and even though that normal size is an XL, I am very proud of that accomplishment. The pictures from this years holidays compared to last years are remarkable. I can finally see a difference.
I am so grateful for my band and for my new lease on life.
Here's to the new year and the new me!
