Thoughts on being 5 months post-op
May 09, 2009
Today is another big one-5 months out already. I'd like to weigh myself and see how much I have lost but I am determinrd to wait until my regular dr.'s checkup this Thursday and be surprised. I had bloodwork done last week so that will be interesting, too, I'm sure. I know I have lost since I last weighed in, as my jeans are getting looser, but my goal is 3 more lbs to make it -100!!!! THE CENTURY CLUB!!! What an amazing journey this has been!This weekend is a sad one for me. Today is also the anniversary of my Dad's death. I can't believe it has been two whole years. It is only with God's strength that I have made it through without him. He was a GOOD man-always tried to do the right thing. He was a simple-living man-never desiring any possessions except his beloved collie dog and a nice car to drive, He gave it all to his family. He was a hard worker-with a rock solid work ethic. They don't make them like him anymore. He was not a big man, but he was the strongest man I have ever known, Who he loved, he would give his life for.
Most of all, even into his final days on this earth, when he had become so frail-his arms were my safe place-they world was OK when my Pop hugged me. He is so sadly missed-I still need my Daddy! I think he would be so happy for my weight loss, and so proud.
