Bought my first bathing suit ever. What a difference a sleeve and a year make!

That feeling when you aren't the fat person on the beach

The journey is forever. There is no finish line. My sleeve will take me through the rest of my life in a healthy way. Life is good!!!

9 months post op and the loss is so agonizingly slow but is still happening. I have always said I am in this for life so trying to stay focused.

Being a "Nancy Know It All" helps no one. Do you do it to help or to make yourself feel superior?

Went to see a friend I hadn't seen in 2 years. She greeted me like I was a customer because she didn't recognize me! lol

5 miles in 8th gear on the bike and upper body workout! Is this girl becoming a gym rat?

5 miles on the bike in 5th gear and 1 mile on the treadmill at 2 degree incline...making progress!

Finally hitting the gym, which I admit I have been avoiding. I felt self-conscious and judged. I have been 3 days straight and crazy I know, BUT I LOVE IT!

New updated profile picture from December! 106 pounds down!

A special thank you to all of the veterans who have given me advice, support and laughs over this year. Merry Christmas to you all!

So the peach has shrunken a bit, made it to 100 pounds down and and it through Thanksgiving! Had to have gallbladder surgery on the 19th so have been a bit tired. Been absent for a bit and thought I would drop in for an update.

Thank you ladies! And yes, I have decided there is nothing I cannot do as every day I must make good choices. Good to know I can even when temptation is at its highest. In response, yes I haven't skipped a beat without my gallbladder. Just some discomfort but I am doing great and continuing to lose. The nice thing )if there is one lol) is that our WLS dietary changes are the same as for gallbladder surgery so no major changes on that front!

2 pounds from 100 lost...what a ride!
-
Pounds lost has slowed but inches still falling off. Haven't lost a pound in 2 weeks but down another size.
-
Still can't get used to the fact my thighs no longer touch when I walk...can't even remember when that was last possible..l.before high school?
-
8 pounds from 100 lost. a milestone that I could have never imagined without this blessing.

Got the opportunity to meet Kelly Clarkson last night before her concert here in Atlanta. When I looked at my pic with her, I am very close to her size. An eye-opening moment. This journey is incredible!
-
Down 91 pounds as of today! My brain still hasn't caught up...
-
Settling into the day to day sleeved life. It doesn't seem like work like it did in the beginning. I am sure it will again as I get close to goal and work to get those last few pounds off. Looking forward to seeing what I look like as I have never been a normal weight...lol

I know It's awful to see the hair fall! I was astonished at how much came out each day. But now (4.5 months out and 89 lbs lost) it seems to be stabilizing and regrowing. I went for a haircut the other day and my stylist showed me how much new hair was coming in. Made me feel much better. Keep your protein and your spirits high. You're doing great and your body will stabilize as you heal and gain strength!
