Goal met ...and passed!

Oct 21, 2010

About a week after my 1 year anniversary of surgery I met my goal weight of 145! It was a pipe dream for me when I set it and now it's a reality! Since then I have promptly lost another 5 pounds. I don't know whether to be grateful or scared. I don't mind the weight I am now but I am hearing from family, friends and even my doctor that I have lost enough. I am actually thin now, although when I look at myself that's not what I see. I think I look great..healthy and just right. I am trying hard not to lose anymore and eating some things ( bread and denser meats) are a problem for me. It doesn't do any good to eat them if I throw them back up!
I am still terrified that the weight will come back. I have the tools to keep it off and have definitely changed the way I eat but fear isn't very rational. I am still in the "honeymoon" phase of my surgery just being about 13 months out and am scared that when I hit the 18 month- 2 year mark I am gonna blow up like a balloon!
Guess I just keep doing what I am doing and let it play out!
