11 weeks already and a size 16..woot, woot

Feb 20, 2011

Life is pretty darn exciting right now.  I am living in a body that I haven't seen in YEARS!  Me, 180 pounds......wow!!  I am down three pants sizes (was a 22, now a loose 16) and wear an XL t-shirt (was in a 2-3x).  So amazing in such a short period of time.  I can wear things that have not fit in years and love it.  I went thrift store shopping for jeans and found a size 14 and 12 for $5 each.  Awesome, not gonna pay full price ever again. 

I am starting to feel so much better around others now without being so self conscious.  However, things are starting to sag quite a bit (inner thighs especially).  Bat wings are so ugly.  One thing I'm worried about is losing 100 pounds and still having body image issues d/t loose skin.  UGH!! 

I'm also begging to have that crazy inner voice feeling that says "no more wt loss for you girlie, this is it."  Damn negative demons go away!  I just can't imagine getting to 125 pounds.  Heck, I've never been that  small  as an adult or even a teenager for that matter.

I also worry about the amt I can eat.  I can definitely eat waaay more than I could a month ago.  Eating feels so normal to me now.  Too normal at times.  I don't always make the best choices and that stresses me out.  Especially when I read about vets who "never" cheated.  will I succeed?  Well obviously that's up to me now isn't it?  Sometimes I feel like "wow,  I chowed down today" but when I realistically look back it was nothing compared to my "previous life."  You know the one before wt loss surgery.  So funny how ones prospective changes.

Hope to begin excising tomorrow.  Please lazy girl, start working out tomorrow.
