Over half way to my goal at @ 4 months

It's the end of December, on Jan 5th I will be sleeved for 4 months. I still have a hard time believing the weight will stay off in the long run - although I have to admit that I never lost this much weight on my own and I haven't looked like this since right after High School. I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror or window reflection and I do a double take. I'm wearing size 14 pants and large shirts which I haven't worn since I was 21. This is an amazing journey. Some days are harder than others. I get frustrated at being full after a few bites, especially when something tastes good. I usually end up eating too much and paying for it by feeling sick and nauseated for a while afterwards. I need to learn to be happy with the small bites I can eat and not push it.

 

Of course there is loose skin everywhere, but I'd rather it be loose than full of fat. I want to start seriously working out and seeing just what I can do now with my new body. I would love to get toned as well as thin, that would be a first for me.

 

I'm so glad I had this done. I am hopeful for my future and excited to see what I can do now.
