Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've blogged about my life and what not so I thought I might do that right now
So it has been about 7 months since I've had my surgery and I'm down approximately 128 lbs!! It is an amazing feeling, literally. The feeling of being able to just maneuver from place to place with out feeling like I might get stuck on something or inbetween something and embarass myself, the feeling of fitting into my car comfortably, buckling my seatbelt with one shot with no hassle and even being able to drive with one leg up on the seat or crossed under my other leg! Or being able to simply cross my legs under tables when I sit now, or anywhere! It truly is an amazing feeling and I'm very thankful to everyone who helped make it possible for me.
So! What's life like after losing 128 lbs? It's great! I'm very active now I'm either out with friends walking, at the gym, going somewhere where before I'd always be..home. Boring. It sucked. I feel like slowly but surely my life is getting to where I want it to be. I'm a lot more outgoing now and I like that new side of me. Everyone in my life has been so supportive and amazing to me. I get nothing but compliments whenever I see people who've known me since before the surgery and it's almost weird to me because I'm not used to it like I thought I was. My friends and family would always tell me "you are so beautiful, you have such a beautiful face." soo.. I guess now that my body is thinning out I'm just beautiful "period". haha funny how life works but I'm still appreciative of everything I've been handed.
My body has gone down in proportion I'd say. I've been told my face was the first thing to thin out and then my legs (I can now wear UGG brand tall boots!! They never fit up my calves before) and arms and whole body all together haha. I have been hitting the gym but no one is perfect I don't go every day. I've noticed my inner thighs have loose skin that will probably require plastics to remove, my arms are not so bad but theres still loose skin there too that. My stomach will most certainly need a tummy tuck and I will also need a breast augmentation but hey! it's all part of renewing myself and I want to be happy in my future.
Well! I hope everyone else is also having a succesful weight loss!! I've posted some "After" photos for your viewing to see the difference from the befores. I gotta run catch you all later! :)
