1 month out and feeling GRRRRrrrreat!
Dec 06, 2010
Hey OH Family....its been a while since my last post...just a quick note to say I'm doing well. Nov. 29th was my 1 month anniversary...I'm officially down 28 lbs. Not sure if that's good or bad....but I embrace any weightloss! I am gettin used to my new stomach, trying new foods allowed and seeing what works what doesn't. Thanksgiving wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...I had 1 spoonful of dark turkey meat, 1 of sweet potatoes made w/ Splenda...2 of mashed potatoes and 1 of stuffing (which i wasn't allowed to have, but what's Thanksgiving without stuffing!)....everything stayed down and I was amazed at how all that was enough to get me through the evening. Im excited about everyone seeing me, 30lbs is I guess noticeable. My family says my face has thinned out somewhat and I can feel it in my clothes...I was wearing a size 20-22...right before surgery......and now I'm in a 16-18...In fact I went dress shopping....I fit into a size 16 black cocktail dress...yes I said it DRESS! I don't wear dresses, but this year I am...I will be posting pics of the company Christmas party...I am sooo happy right now...I can only imagine what is yet to come in 3, 6, 9 months....I do believe this is the best thing I've done for myself and I should have done it sooner. But it's never to late to make things happen for yourself.
