4 Weeks Update...
Mar 09, 2010
Hey OH Fam, I have been wanting to update yall for a while, but have been busy trying to get my $#@% together, ya feel me? Today makes one full month from my surgery and I'm glad to tell you that I am doing so much better. My life has really changed. I woke up this morning weighing 213 lbs.
I never thought that I would be this close to onederland. By this time next month I hope to be there. I have gone from a size 22/24 to 16 pants, large tops and dresses. It's so wonderful that it's scary at times. I bought some 16 pants at Old Navy and I wore them out to lunch with some friends. One of them said, "Michelle it's time to get rid of your old clothes." After telling them that this was a new outfit, I decided to go back to Old Navy and return the 16's for 14's. I was thinking that I would be able to fit them in a month or so. Well, they sat in my room for a couple of days and I decided to try them on to see how far I had to go. Girlllllllllllllllllllll they fit. I could not believe it. So I'm thinkin...maybe it's the cut of the pants. Went to another store and tried on 14's. WOW. Needless to say, I'm floored. Most of you know that I hated taking pic's before, Now I carry my camera with me. I'm so happy that I stuck with this and even though the first week or two was pure HELL, it was so worth it. I'm working out daily and I have attended boot camp classes at 24 HR Fitness. Even though I complained about my illness in the beginning, something wonderful happened. Remember I told yall about my EX a few blogs ago? Well, we had been separated for about 3 years. When I couldn't walk or move, my son called him to rush me to emergency. He came immediately and we have been back together ever since. Things are good! Great even. I'm more in love now than I was back then. Or maybe just wiser. My whole life has changed because of WLS and I pray that those of you that are reading this and are pre-op just know that yours will change as well.
Gotta give a shout out to my girls Free, AdifferentMe, What Ego and Kyra (please forgive me if I forgot some) who checked on me so often. It made me feel really good. Thanks girls.
