Time sure flies

Aug 21, 2009

Who knew that 2 years would fly by so fast?  So much has happened since my last post.

* November 18 - beautiful new granddaughter (Adalyn) came into the world at 30 weeks weighing a little 3lbs.
* December 20 - Adalyn got released from NICU at 4.5lbs.  She was such a little fighter and she has a big sister to show her the way (she was born at 32 weeks in 2006).
* April 1 - reached my goal of losing 149lbs.
* June 22 - had abdominoplasty and back/hip lipo - removed 4lbs of skin and 2 liters of fat - currently at size 14, 38 inch waist, 45 inch hips. 38 inch bra band.  No complications - simple, easy, pretty much painless recovery.  Back to driving and work within 10 days of surgery.
* August 21 - now wearing size 8-10, 32 inch waist, 41 inch hips, 34 inch bra band.  I will be 2 months out from plastic surgery tomorrow and 2 years out from the gastric bypass.  Just found out Adalyn is a super healthy 9 month old and due to her advanced development, they are no longer basing her progress on the "preemie" standards.  Baby girl is trying to walk but why not, her awesome big sister does!  I am madly, deeply, passionately in love - STILL.  As in a previous post, I have been seeing the man of my dreams and he always has been since we dated 27 years ago.  We started talking wedding stuff last night - I have been single for 20+ years so this is soooo exciting, crazy and scary all at the same time!  It is so much sweeter this time around - God really knew what he was doing.
