Time Flies - especially when you can FLY!

Mar 16, 2009

Fast forward to March and I feel great.  I am completely stalled at 162 pounds but I have to start keeping a food diary again to see what the problem might be.  I now exercise three times a week at the Galter Center of Swedish Covenant Hospital.  I work out hard and sweat through many miles on the treadmill and the hand weights stretching class.  So far - no loss, zip, zilch, nada.  I refuse to get negative about it though and continue to believe in the weightloss fairy who will visit me one night and kick my flabby butt to get it started losing again.  I have had so many WOW moments I can't count them all.  I walk, dress, laugh, plan, care more deeply, feel funnier, work harder and am the happiest person I know - - - except for maybe Nicolle.  There is nothing about this surgery that would ever make me even think the words, why did I do this.  I am living the rest of my life as a mobile human being without carrying the baggage of sadness and deprivation around my middle.  I'm learning to speak my mind.  I'm learning to tell those I love that I love them.  I am spending time doing what I want to do.  Life is one big WOW moment.  This time I'm coming to the party of life with the right attitude and I'm having a ball.  Do I sound drunk?  Not yet, I'm only 10 months out from surgery and couldn't feel better.
