Hooray!

So just got home from the doc's office. Last month when I went I had lost 18lbs! That was insane and I knew I was too tight. So she loosened up the band, I plateaued for a little while after that and this visit today, I only lost 2 pounds... I guess it's normal considering I lost so much the last time.

Anyway Im still happy and celebrating because I did not gain any weight back and even still managed to lose some. Today she tightened it a small tad because I was still feeling hungry at times. But the real excitement is...I went to the mall and fit into a SIZE 8 JEANS! I cannot believe it! I don't remember being in the 1 digits before. I'm happy, and I love this decision.

I have five months to go before reaching my goal weight. I hope I can do it, hittin the gym later, taking my multi vitamins, and getting in my protein. Liquids for 2 days and then onto mushies.

I wonder what it's like to not obsess about food, weight and appearance? I wonder if that feeling will ever go away? Let me know guys... happy holidays!
