8 Weeks

Jan 03, 2011

So 8 weeks ago today I was in surgery right about now, getting the tool to help me get to a healthy weight to live the rest of my life at.  I am amazed at how much better I feel after 8 weeks and getting rid of 48 pounds forever!! 

For the first time in as long as I can remember, my clothes aren't skin tight, I don't have marks and welts on my skin from being squished into the too tight waistbands of jeans or from my bras, and I am on the verge of dropping to a size 14 which I haven't worn since college! 

I have started exercising which is definately making a difference.  My goal is to get to the gym 5 days a week consistantly and put in at least 1 hour of exercise.  I have also started writing down what I eat so I can be sure to get in 60-80 grams of protein, at least 64 ounces of fluid, and stay on track!

I am really looking forward to seeing the changes the next 50 pounds lost make to my body!!
