At almost Five Years Out!!

Oct 22, 2015

So next month I will be five year out from weight loss surgery. I feel I have done great. I have hit my personal goals like weighing less than the hubby Yay!!

Its such an amazing feeling to not have to shop in the plus size section anymore. When I went in to have the surgery I wore a size 28 jeans! Now I wear a size 12/13.. Wow its such an awesome feeling. I wish my extra skin was not so bad cause it makes me feel like I still look big unless I wear the uncomfortable shape wear. So I am gonna have to save and see about getting this skin removed so I can look in the mirror and be proud of how far I have come. Don't get me wrong I am so very proud of my progress with the first journey but now it on to the second journey. My family doctor has estimated that I will lose about 50lbs of lose skin which would out my weight at 128lbs woo hoo!. These journeys are not easy .. So Many different emotions you go through but I am thankful the support of my family and friends cause with out them it would have been so much harder. I love the way I eat now so many different kinds of foods and they are healthy and taste good. The smell of fastfood makes me sick now. I can't believe I used to thank that it tasted good. I just wish so many of my loved ones who have past away were here to see this, I think they would be so proud..

 

To all who are starting out stick with the program don't drink pop it will expand the stomach I did not and I have done good I have know people who started drinking pop again the are regaining there weight its not worth it.. set small goal the are easier to abtain and you will feel proud of your self. Most of be you and do this for you not anybody else.
