Having a hard time believing it!

Ok so I have lost over 60lbs since I began this journey last May. 51 of those have come since surgery on Dec 24. It's crazy because I know I am much smaller, I've gone from a size 22 to a size 14/16 but I still look the same when I look in the mirror!

Celebrating the mini milestones :)

So today was a mini milestone day for me.   First, I woke up to see that I was at 250.0 lbs. If I'm lucky, tomorrow I will cross a big goal off, which was to be under 250lbs! I gotta admit I am so freaking happy!   Second, I started the blended foods stage. While it's not THAT much better than liquid, it's an improvement!   I made a big pot of chili last night, I used cuban black beans as the base, and pureed them, and then added beef broth, some canned tomatoes and onions, and 1lb of 96%
