60 pounds lost and other victories

Hi friends:

 

Welp, this morning I weighed in at 241, so that's 60 lbs down from my top weight and 49 down since surgery.

I'm quite pleased. 

Other victories:

-I'm wearing a size 18 now. I bought two pairs of capris and a new pair of jeans yesterday and they fit!

-I can get into deeper twists in yoga since my belly isn't as big

-Sleep apnea has improved; I see the sleep doctor to see if my settings can be changed

-All my rings are looser

-I'm less sweaty

-I definitely feel "lighter" on my feet; Mom says I don't sound as stompy when I'm walking around upstairs

-My coworker said it looks like I've had a facelift since my face is a lot thinner

-I can cross my legs

ETA: Also! I have almost no facial or neck hair anymore!

 

That's what I can think of now. And I thank all of you for your support :)

Awesome! It's amazing the little changes that really do add up! 

Congrats. More to come and enjoy.

Wait until you get out of plus size and each month you are dropping a pants size it seems- i must have another room that is full of clothes I'm selling to put toward new ones. Don't be surprised if those pants only last about a month till they are coming off!!

 

Yes, I've dropped from a 24 to an 18 since my top weight. Feels good. I tried on a regular (non plus size) 18 yesterday at Walmart but it didn't fit. I'm staying in plus sizes for a little while longer, I guess.

Keep writing these down.  It's amazing to come back to them a year out and see just how far you have come.  Congrats!  Keep up the good work!

I'm about four years out and I still have a list of milestones and victories in my journey and a before picture posted on my frig. They help keep me motivated to make the best choices each and every day.

Wonderful news all your victories are amazing.  Such inspiration to those of us awaiting surgery.  Hope you path continues beautifully!  Much love ??
