Sit back and enjoy the ride!

May 16, 2009

I can't believe how much life has changed... yet stayed the same! I am 4 months and 1 day out from surgery. I have lost a grand total of 76.2lbs (25lbs of that was presurgery.) I love the weight I have lost but I am now waiting for my mind to catch up to my body. When your losing the weight (or At least for me) you notice the weight coming off, clothes no longer fit, and peoples reactions sure have changed. But when I looked in the mirror I couldn't see this huge difference that everyone was talking about. I went on vacation back home (Calli) and saw lots of family and friends. And everyone told me how great I looked, one of my best friends teared up. And I didn't really know what to feel about that. Then my husband and I took our two nephews to Sea World. I was all over the park, riding rides, doing everything I wouldn't let myself do before and then it hit me. I have lost a lot of weight. I am a new person.

This journey so far has been one hell of a ride! And to all those people that think this is the easy way, you have know idea! I have busted my butt to get at where I am today... and I will continue to bust my butt! I have a long way to go still but I finally feel that I am on the right path and headed in the right direction!
