6 Months After Surgery

Jan 02, 2012

Well six months have gone and I have had a hard road.  I did not update because I did not want to run the risk of getting anyone down!  The good news is that I have lost 65 lbs and I am down to a 12-14 from a 20-22.  I am so excited and I love having the clothing choices that are out there for me now.  It is funny because I find myself in Lane Bryant starring at the clothes.  My mind has not come to understnad that I am not that size anymore.  People tell me that I have lost so much weight but when I look in the mirror.... I just see ME!  I notice a difference in my wrists and legs but I still just see me.  So funny.  Maybe one day I will look in the mirror and see the skinny person everyone else sees.

I am not hungery but I do miss eating at times.  The holidays were not too hard but it was strange to watch everyone else eat and see how much they over ate.  My meal choices are so much healthier and I feel like a million bucks.  I have energy to spare and hate to stay at home.  I love being on the go and around people.  Things I liked to de before but now I LOVE to do them.

Like I said I had some real problems but thank you to my family, my outstanding doctor (Paul Macik,) and a wonderful nurse (Paula.)  They not only took care of my but kept me smiling and laughing at times I did not want too nor did I think I could!  You are all the best and most loved people!  I owe each of you a part of my life.
