Almost there...and under 300

May 08, 2011

For the first time in several years I am under 300lbs.  It may sound silly, but I have been trying to eat like I would once I have surgery.  I have been increasing my protien and working on the lowerfat snacks.  I am try to walk or do something active daily.  I figure being active is better for me than the couch potato I generally am.  I really want to get into a workout routine, but one day at a time.  :)
I have my last meeting with my dietician this week and I will have completed my six months of counseling.  Wow, and I never thought it would get here.  I should have my "permission"/approval for surgery in just a few short weeks.  I am so, so excited.  I recently looked at a clothing catalog that was not Layne Bryant or Catherienes and realized that by Christmas (or earlier) I could be in "regular" people sizes.  I just sat down and cried.  I have so much hope for the first time in a long time.  I know it is a tool, and I still have to work at it, but I know I can do it.  I am going to keep taking my vitamins, walking and losing weight and eventually have my surgery.  I am ready.
