6 Months Out - Down 105 lbs!

Mar 13, 2009

Boy do I feel better!  I'm almost at 6 months since my surgery and down 105 lbs since the week before my surgery date.  I lost 80 lbs the first 3 months (it was fast, but I was throwing up a lot) and then it took me the last 3 months to lose 25 lbs.  I have to admit, I'm not excercising like I should be or drinking enough water, so that is my focus for the next two months (until pool season!).  I REALLY want to get below 200 before summer.  Sugar is not near as a struggle as it was before surgery but I still like it every so often.  If I have too much, I break out into a huge sweat and feel nauseous so it's not worth it. 

I was SOOOO excited last week when I went to the department store for a pair of black pants for work and the size 14 fit perfect!  YEA!!!!  I never thought I'd be a 14 again coming from being in a tight size 26 last fall.  It's a great feeling and all the work is SOOO worth it.

I really look forward to getting a tummy tuck and neck lift maybe in the fall.  The extra skin is not pretty and I know I'd feel even better without it. 

Good luck to everyone else who was brave enough to take this journey!  It is so worth it!!!  Talk to you soon!
