My son, my friend and I went to the fair this evening. We had a great time.
We wanted to see the hypnotist show before we left, so we got good seats right up front.
So the hypnotist gets on stage and of course is looking for volunteers. My son is begging me to go up, so I volunteered along with around 15 other people.
Now, 7 months ago I never would've wanted to go on a stage in front of hundreds of people when I weighed 333lbs. I would've been mortified at what people would've said about me, and I never would have been relaxed enough to be hypnotized.
But that was then, this is now. I now weigh 185lbs, and am so confident in myself that not only did I volunteer, I actually got hypnotized and was the star of the whole show!!
My friend was actually laughing so much that she burst a blood vessel in her eye!!
My son just loved that I did it, and that I got hypnotized.
And when the show was over and I got off the stage, I didn't even feel embarrassed...I felt good that I took such a risk.
Funny how losing weight opens up such weird and different opportunities!!

I am just starting my Pre op stuff I was approved yesterday! My biggest problem is my head! it won't shut up. It keeps saying just one bite won't hurt. But, it was the same for quitting smoking. Which I had to do for this. 8 weeks smoke free. I was a 46 year smoker!
