8 Months Post Op - GOAL REACHED w/ Pics

I was officailly 8 months post op yesterday and am currently below my goal weight of 150.  I met my goal weight around my 7 month post op mark and am currently weighing 147 (downt 113 lbs) and am hovering there for the last few weeks.  I think this is where my body wants to stay and this is the thinnest I have been for as long as I can remember...I'm thinner than I was at my thinnest in high school.  My mom, family and co-workers are starting to tell me I need to stop losing or I'll be too thin...but I totally don't see it!  I bought my first pair of size 2 skinny jeans and knee high boots...I was sooooo excited!!!  Pic below 

People that know what I looked like before constantly comment about how great I look, but their opinions seem to hold less weight because any weight loss is an improvement.  However, I was in the fitting room trying on my size 2 skinny jeans& boots and the fitting room attendant told me they looked great on me especially because I am so thin.  When a complete stranger said she thought I was thin it really hit home for me because she doesn't have a before to compare me to...she just knows what I look like right now and apparently thin is what she thought.  Not sure if anyone understands what I am saying?

I do notice the heads turning my way and people, men especially, seem to be nicer and more helpful towards me.  It really is sad that we automatically judge people and our reaction to them based on how they look...I don't think I realized that because I was always the fat girl...



 

 You are beautiful, and you are rocking those skinny jeans and boots! Congrats on a great success!

Wow totally awesome, all in eight or seven months? I really have a hard time believing this and can only hope I have this much loss at that time. Tomorrow is four weeks post op for me and think I am at a stall or just that time for flo so probably retaining water but will hope for a big loss next week

 I remember when I started on this journey I couldn't believe how someone could start out as a size 20 and then eventually be a 2/4...I just thought it was impossible, especially for me!!!!  But I'm here to tell you it CAN be done...much to my disbelief!!!

What was your eating plan like daily and what about exercise? If you don't mind sharing an example.

Wow...you look MAAAHVELOUS!! I wish I could wear skinny jeans...they look so great with boots!! You should be proud of your accomplishments!!!!
