Life is good.  No regrets!!   My only problem is not having clothes to wear!! 

I am down 41 pounds since July 1st and over 60lbs  since my journey began in Feb.  I feel great.  I have had a couple stalls and those are very frustrating but I get through them and drop 1-2lbs a day again.  I walk every day.  I go to the gym when I have time.  I went from a size 22/24 to a 14.   It really is frustrating when you feel soooo good about yourself and then you put on a sack for clothes to go out into the world.  I complain a lot and my husband says I should be happy my clothes dont fit.  I am happy but I want to look as good as a feel.  I havent been a 14 since junior high!!   I did start sewing the waistband of my stretchy clothes.  They look better and I dont have to use a hair scrunchie to hold them up!!!   My sewing machine and I are going to go through my closet today and get rid of lots of clothes, and sew the ones I can. 

Ok so probably TMI but sex is different now.  There is less cushion between me and my husband and it makes it feel like he has grown...if you get my drift.  Certain positions hurt...although his ego has boosted about 10 levels.  Sex is more fun and I feel like a teenager again.  I cant wait to meet some more of my goals.  We are going to Disneyland next month and I cant wait to experience that comfortably.  I will fit in the rides and seats like I should.  I will have more energy to walk around the park....maybe even run!! 

Well off to go clean out my closet.  Best wished to all of you who are getting ready for surgery or new.  This is an awesome journey...enjoy it.
