I never thought I'd get here but I am in size 12s now! I've bought a few pair of pants and my matron-of-honor dress for my brother-in-laws wedding in July in a size 12!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOPIE! I can't ever remeber being in a 12. I was in a 16 when I graduated from high school! This is just icing on the cake after hitting 100 pounds list (since initial consult!)

Here are some pictures from my dress fitting back on the 17th. This is THE dress in the correct color. I think with a good shaper underneath this will look great!!! What do you think???

Why don't I care that I've been stuck at the same weight for 10 days? Because I fit my (less) fat ass into a size 14 today!!!!! Paired with a LARGE top! That's right ... not a single X to be found!! It was a large kind of day today, I also bought a pair of sleepy pants in a large and a dress in a large (12/14)

Here's some photographic proof!






I guess that what they say about you shrinking when the scale stops really is true!

When I started this journey, my dream was to get into a 14 again. I never really thought I'd see the day when I was 14 again. I really didn't! Granted, there's still plenty of belly and bum in them and that they're really not comfortable enough for me to wear to work tomorrow, I know that they soon WILL be comfy!

I LOVE MY RNY!!!!!

Well, I finally did it. I was sick of my hair falling out so I had over 6 inches chopped off. I heard on the main board that a shorter cut stops the hair falling out for some folks. I'm also considering it my "big girl haircut" for my 30th birthday (on Wednesday! ) So here's the new do .... what do you think???

I've been steadily dropping since I last posted! The scale gods heard me!!!!

Weight this morning ...... 195.4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just can't seem to lose any more!!! I keep gaining and losing the same pound and a half for the past week or so! ARGH! It's so frustrating!!!

Here are some new pictures. I can now see the difference in my front pictures, but from the side I still see a whole lot of belly!!! These were taken Saturday by my friend and Sunday by my husband -

I made it! The scale read 199.4 this morning! I am OVER THE MOON! Still in size 18's but they're getting baggy now. 

Went shopping for my Matron of Honor dress for my brother-in-law's wedding yesterday and ran around the store in strappy heels for over an hour, and GET THIS, my feet didn't hurt!

This isn't the dress we ended up picking for me - but here's me yesterday! Ignore the goofy face and frizzy hair! LOL

Size 18's and a 1X top call for a few new pictures! :) Weight loss to date (since initial consult) is 64 pounds! Woohoo! Still hoping to make onederland by the new year ... but that's 8 pounds a way, so we'll see!

Here are a few pictures that I'll add to to show my progress to date! You won't find a lot of full body pictures of me .... I'm not one for posing for pictures! But you'll get the idea! I'll go from latest to earliest to make it easier to follow future posts!
