Hi everyone,

It's been a long time since I've visited the site but I thought I'd come over to share my recent success.

I just hit my 8 month mark last week and as of today, I am down a total of 86lbs!!! I'm beyond thrilled!

Please allow me to list all of the recent success that I've seen in non-scale form:

* down to a size 16 from a 24

* I was able to get on the rides at six flags three weeks ago (it's been 7 years since I've been able to fit)

* I fit on the plane, comfortably

* I've been working out 2-3 times a week

* I'm happy!

Just needed to share, hope everyone is well!

I was so thrilled when I slipped into a size 16, I was also a 22 moving up to 24 when I started. I cried my eyes out in the dressing room that day, in shock. I just finally got rid of 6 bags of clothes that I have not worn in months, but it was so hard to just let them go. Being that I am now comfortable in a 14, the size 22 just cannot work anymore with me ????

Congrats!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
