Still figuring out this thing called a sleeve!
Feb 19, 2010
Well yesterday was officially 8 weeks post-op for me. Life has had it's gorging moments for me, but I am glad to say that, now I actually see myself as a health concious person. Can you believe it! Anyway, yesterday marked a very important day for me. 8 freegin' weeks!!!! And to make it even better, I was reading a fellow WLSurgerier's page, and he talked about how he would go through drive-thru's and order 2 meals w/2 sodas just so it would look like they weren't both for him. Man was that me. I read his page and read his page and aside from the fact that he has RNY, I am the female version of everything that he wrote. In tears I sat here and read how he went from being that person to the Ironman competing, 200+pounds lost guy that loves himself. I see myself changing and becoming more and more like that, and it feels AWESOME!!!!It has been 8 dag-on weeks & I am down 65 pounds since my pre-op diet! I am no longer self concious when it comes to having to enter my weight in on the equipment at the gym. I will take the honor of entering 2-8-3 on that machine. It has been far too long since I haven't tried to cover the screen while entering my weight in fear that people might see the actual #'s of shame. And further more.....even when I was still in the low 300's I was just as proud b/c I knew that once I surpass that # this time, I will Never....NEVER EVER.....NEVER EVER EVER in my life see that # again.
Thanks for reading.
Smooches!
