Just a quick update:
I am feeling wonderful!! I am down to 147 pounds....that's so mind blowing to me...im wearing s/m shirts and 7/8 pants...this has been a trying process...the stalls and the head hunger, the emotions, the whole unknown....but it has been worth every struggle I have had! I would go thru all of it all over again if I had to I hope everyone is continuing to do great and feel good my original goal was 125 but I worry that may be too small for my frame so I have adjusted to 135- that puts me 12 pounds from goal in 8 months!!! I am so excited for me as well as everyone else!

I have not posted with my December friends in a while I have been doing good- 6 month check up next week. Down about 73 pounds. Last weekend I tried on a pair of jeans and a size 10 fit me!!!!!! I almost fell over...lol! When I started 6 months ago I was wearing a 18/20 in pants. I was so excited I paid the $30 for a pair of pants I know I will not be able to wear for long!!! I am so eager to get to single digits. People at work tell me I look like a completely different person now if I could figure out how to post a pic I would hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the new you!!! I am :)

I have been stuck between 160 and 164 for a month now increasing exercise and protein- hoping for results soon

Yesterday I went to the mall to get a manicure and I went into Macy's just to try the clothes. I headed for the "normal" section and grabbed a couple pairs if size 16 pants. I put them on in the dressing room and to my surprise they fit. Like not just barely zipped but fit. Its been nine years since I have shopped in any other section besides plus size. I was so overwhelmed I sat down on the bench and teared up. Its those moments that make all the struggles worth it.

They did robotic surgery and removed my gallbladder Wednesday! Im feeling ok- sore it was only one incision in my belly button which was nice but I sure have been sore. Planning in going back to work on Monday. Can't lift over 10 pounds until I follow up and I have been resting- trying to give my body time to heal.
