Almost four months out

Apr 05, 2011

Well, I can't believe that I am almost 4 months out from surgery. What a 4 four months it's been. I am now down 78 lbs. For the first time in years I weigh under 300 lbs.  I am almost half way to my surgeons goal. (Although not half way to my goal.) I am starting to feel great. I have more energy. Protein and I are starting to be friends again. The biggest thing (besides my clothes being too big and falling off me), is that I am finally starting to see a difference in places other than my face. Hubby can put his arms around me and give me a proper hug.

One of these days I will get some before and after pictures up, now I that I don't mind having my picture taken. 

I am so glad that I have had the opportunity to have the surgery. I know that without it I more than like wouldn't be alive to see my kids get married and to see my grand babies being born. December 18Th. 2010 was the first day of the rest of my NEW life.

I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has given me encouragement along my journey. There were times that I was ready to quit but I am SO glad that everyone talked me out of it.

There are so many things out there that I can't wait to try. I am hoping to start running. It is something that I have never done before . It is going to be one of many "first" for me. I will let you know how I make out with it!
