5 months out!!!!!!!!!

Dec 22, 2008

Wow, I can't believe that I am five months out. Amazing how time goes so fast. Weightloss has definitely slowed down for me. Weighed myself the other day and I was at 219, hey it's better than 286 where I started from initially. I am seeing a difference now, finally! I do get a lot of compliments from others but don't really know how to handle them. I guess I should just say thank you. Well my first blog (before the surgery) I wrote about being able to go to one of my favorite stores Lerners of New York. I went there the other day with my 16 year old god daughter and she started trying clothes on and she said to me Auntie you should try something on. I did and it fit!!!!!!! I was amazed!!!!! It was such a good feeling that I can't even describe. You guys probably know what I mean because you know the struggle of looking at yourself in the mirror and hating what you see. Now, I look in the mirror and love what I see. I still have about 40 more pounds to go. My goal is to be down to a comfortable size 10, about 170lbs. really don't want to get smaller because then I will start looking like a crack head, lol! Soon I will start going on the dating scene in about another couple months. For now, it's all about me and my children. Feels good to put me first for a change!!!!!!! Hope to see the scale move more at 6 months for now......................PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
