AlteredReality

I take bariatric melts (vitamins and Calcium citrate). Had to start a zinc supplement, because I was a little deficient. My meals always consist of a Protein (seafood, ground turkey, chicken or beans) and vegetables. I don't eat any bread, rice or regular Pasta (I do zucchini noodles) and absolutely no sweets, caffeine or carbonated drinks. Starting out my exercise was just walking about a mile a day. I still walk, but do low impact strength training and will begin jogging soon. I do still have an occasional Protein Shake after I have finished exercising

It's been a minute since I updated anything, but here it is! I am now in a size 5...never thought I would be in that size without a 2 in front of it!!! Still trying to cope with the reflection in the mirror, because she's so foreign to me still. I have moments of just being down, because I no longer look the same. I miss some of the physical attributes I used to have. I feel like i'm in middle school again when I look at myself...flat chested once again (never thought that would happen). Contrary to the hype...SQUATS DON'T WORK (I lost that attribute as well)!!! On the good side...i'm much healthier and now have a normal BMI and have much more energy. So all in all, even though I have had some struggles and dealt with some stomach issues throughout this journey...i'm still happy with the decision I made to go through with it.
I want to say thank you, to those of you that have been so supportive and have been following my progression with me️

Whew!!! Time has flown by so fast!!! The 25th of this month makes a full year since WLS. I have had some up and down moments, but never any regrets about having it done. I'm so amazed at the weight I have lost and I am loving the positive way it has improved my health and gave me a new lease on life. Down to a size 4 and some 5's. I'm embracing the physical changes my body has endured through this journey. Best wishes to those who are on this journey...you got this!!! Stay encouraged and never give up on yourself

Happy Born Day

We started our journeys at about the same time and shared the same starting weight. You have been such an inspiring and supportive influence on me, AlteredReality. You are a beautiful woman, inside and out.

Today I'm celebrating 53 years of life. I'm 139lbs. down and I exercise regularly. I'm wearing 53 years pretty well. Don't you all agree? Here's my Birthday transformation pic.

It's been a minute since I updated anything, but here it is! I am now in a size 5...never thought I would be in that size without a 2 in front of it!!! Still trying to cope with the reflection in the mirror, because she's so foreign to me still. I have moments of just being down, because I no longer look the same.
