Today's the day I hit "my" goal!!

Jul 04, 2010

OMG!  I got up this morning and jumped (I never jump....I ease onto it...LOL) on my scale to weigh (after peeing of course!) and what do you know...I HIT GOAL. Well, actually below goal…179.4!!! My first goal was to get to 1-DERLAND, which was surreal!  Then, to get to180 because that's was when I was happiest in my younger days. I was in OA, and felt like I was on top of the world. So, everything below that will be a total gift!  I will continue to do what I'm doing to work my beautiful sleeve!  It's amazing, I had my gall bladder removed 3 days ago and I've been losing ever since with no complications. I must say that I've not been able to eat as much, feels like the early days of my sleeve and no exercise, except for some walking for now. I'm 11 months out and have had an amazing journey.  I'm so grateful for my life.  Today I can: cross my legs, shop anywhere, exercise, go on long bike rides, park far away, walk up stairs, paint my toes, wipe my butt, shave my legs, eat healthy, love myself, sleep well, wear necklaces, stand up for myself, be active, have sex on top, not be afraid to walk into a room of new people, not be afraid to specify how I would like my meal prepared, look normal, focus on something else besides my weight, LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!  I want to thank all of you who came before me and all that are just starting your journey.  You are all inspirations to me!  WOW!  What's next?  It’s time to really start working on me!
