4 Months Today

Oct 07, 2010

I love the passing of a new month.  I don't know why, but it encourages me.  I weigh on Fridays, so I'll post losses (please Lord no gains) tomorrow.  I'll also try to get some pictures up.  I'm enjoying watching my progression as I take pictures each month.  It helps me to see how far I've progressed. 

NSV's for this past month - My smaller clothes are getting lose.  I'm getting lots of compliments from various people.  I've outed myself as having had WLS.  Loose skin!  Love it or hate it, it's a great "war wound".

Shaving my legs the other day was a little more challenging.  Taut skin is easier for the razor. I don't have that anymore, so I'm giving some serious thought to Nair or Veet, etc.  My knee-jerk reaction when I see all this loose skin is to say "Ugh!"  (I upper arms to match my thighs.) Then, I remind myself what a blessing it is to have less fat.  This is a victory.  I intend to have plastics when I reach goal.  That helps to keep me from being discouraged.

What a great journey we are on!  It is quite the roller coaster marathon, but I am happy to be on it!  Blessings to all my gentle readers.  Thanks for encouraging and inspiring me.
