3 Month Surgiversary

Mar 11, 2009

It's been a little over 3 months and I am doing great.  I have been losing steadily and I assume staying healthy.  I have lost a total of 69 pounds.  It's so funny because if you tell me you have lost 69 pounds it sounds like so much more weight than when I say it. 

I am now shopping in regular sized clothes. The weather here in Georgia is getting warmer so I had to go shopping for shorts (since last years have all been given away).  I found the cutest skirt in an 18 and thought I would try it on.  IT WAS TOO BIG.  Of course they didnt have a 16.  But I was just happy to finally have something be too big.  Now of course that was a one time thing because the shorts I bought were 18's and fit perfect. 

I had been fat for about 10 years.  For the first time I am looking forward to swimming and going to the beach.  I have even planned a Girls (and our kids) weekend trip to my mothers beach house.  I am usually not a beach person.  Hoping that that will change.  My only concern is my flabby flesh being mistaken for a jellyish in the ocean. 

Oh and a MAJOR NSV. My high school chorus is having a reunion. The attire is a black dress.  I was so worried about finding one.  I looked all weekend and found one at White House Black Market.  On sale for $40 notheless!!  Its an XL.  I was shocked!  The clothes there look so small.  I also bought a dress or Easter.  It's a 16.  I am flipping out.

Well, I guess that's all my milestones for now.  I know there are many more to come and I can not wait to share them all with all of you!!

Have a great day and think skinny!
