New Green Shirt Photo

Hi, fellow bandsters:

 

It is the 2nd of October and you know what that means? It means it is time for the new green shirt photo. As you can see, I also changed my Avatar.

 

My husband takes the pictures and then he sizes them for me. I kept asking him to go from one picture to the past picture because I couldn't believe how many changes there were. I am really doing it!

 

I would be so happy if I could say every week I lost 5 lbs. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. But I am consistently losing - about a pound or so a week. I really thought it would be more, but it took many years to put the weight on, so it is going to take a while to take it off.

 

Monday will start week 15 and I've lost around 35 lbs since my surgery. I've had 1 fill so far, last Thurs, but I really don't think I need another one. I am able to eat anything without getting sick, and I stop when I start to feel the hunger go away. I am working out religiously and I really do feel amazing. When I saw the pictures tonight, I really started feeling better about myself and how I look.

 

Please check our my new green shirt photo and let me know what you think of my new pictures.

 

Have a great weekend everyone.

Getting on the scale now has such different meaning...I used to cringe when I stepped on the scale, however now I look forward to seeing the number displayed!

You look great! Keep up the awesome job, and the great attitude!!

I love seeing that green shirt photo every month. I don't think you need the scale to tell you anything the shirt does all the talking!!!
