4 years out already

Nov 22, 2010

I can't believe its been 4 years already since my surgery. At times it seems like just yesterday and others it seems like it was forever. At my lowest weight I got down to 130 lbs (a 200 lb loss), At that point most everyone thought I WAS ANOREXIC, something I never thought I would be called (LOL), I was a size 4 or 6. it has been a very hard year as my family has suffered numerous family members passing, so I havent been exercising as much as I'd like to, was to busy taking care of my mom and my grama before they passed. I have out on weight Im now about 160 and a size 8 or 10. Even though I want to lse somemore weight again. I would rather be a solid size 9. Everyone says that I look better now then I did when I was so thin. I can actually look at pictures from when I was thinner and see that I reaslly didnt look that good (bones sticking out everywhere), but after being heavy for so long I thought I looked great!!!!! I do want to lose about 5-10 pounds at that weight I felt better, right now I just feel so blah and fat (I now that in itself sounds funny to, deeling fat at 160, when I used to be 330 lbs.) 2011 will be my year to regain myself and get back to where I want to be. I have maintained this weight for a long time so Im not worried about gaining more, and I have managed to get to the gym once or twice this month so that is an improvement.
Anyone out there going through this, know it is worth it.
As of today its been about 5 years since Ive had Soda, used a straw, had cAffeine, pasta, rice, gum, etc. I still dont eat or drink what they told me we were not supposed to. I know to many people who found out that they could still eat/drink that stuff and then have gained weight because of it. I figure Ive made it this far and dont miss it why chance it..
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE
