Almost back to where I was before the holiday...only 4 ounces to go.... Drinking lots of water today! But wait...oh no... I have a weeks vacation at the cabin next week! I believe I am going to pack up the scale and take it with me!

Oh boy...that long weekend without a scale burned me... up 1.2 pounds this morning. First gain since surgery....EEK!

Today starts my long weekend. We will be at the cabin for 4 nights and I will not have access to a scale. This will be the longest period of time I have ever gone w/o weighing myself (gulp!). Wish me luck!

175!!! Me? I love my sleeve! Whoot!

I fit into a pair of Levi's size 8 today!!!! OMG -

I am going to the mall today - want to pick up a pair of the cute new Toms!

Live each day as if it was your last. What's worth the price is always worth the fight. So live like your never living twice!

Yeah! Dr Kelly is my hero too! He has touched so many lives and he is such a kind man! Congrats on your surgery and cheers to you and your new journey!

At the gym yesterday we worked with kettle balls - 50lb kettles. While doing squats holding one in my hands I commented on how heavy it was and how my knees where cracking...Then she reminded me that I used to carry more than that weight around every second of every day! I am so blessed to have this sleeve!

Another slow week - yo-yoing up and down the same half pound - today I dropped a little tiny bit. But 178.2 seems like a miracle to me - so I will take it! Now off to the gym to force my way closer to goal!

You are looking beautiful!

I just realized I have less than 25 pounds to go till goal, 23.4 to be exact! Hard to believe - I love my sleeve!

Cleaned out more clothes last night.....I was told by someone at work that the pants I was wearing yesterday - "Gotta go" - I had them belted and under a short jacket - from the front I thought they looked a bit baggy but ok - She told me that "You have no butt now and your pants are hanging!" NEVER thought I would hear that!

He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything - I am working my way back to healthy!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mothers Day - I set my next mini-goal -170. Hope to be there by 4th of July!

AH HA! 179.9!!! I did it! Next goal 170!

180.6 - Yup, thats .6 between me and my next mini goal of 179.9. HMMM if I was not constipated I think I would be there. Of to the medicine cabinet to see what kind of cocktail I can whip up!

1.4lbs - That's what stands between me and 179! Not losing lbs fast but - sure am losing inches!

Finally a beautiful blue sky day here! -Time for some sunshine and fresh air. Will be nice to feel confident is shorts and sundresses this summer!

Dear Sleevie - PLEASE help me get into the 170's soon! I am working hard, staying focused and feeding you be best protein and water I can! I am working out and giving it my all....your turn now!

Comfortable in most size 10's now. Dreaming of a day in the future that I fit into a single digit. To me it really is a dream, don't remember ever being an 8 or 9!

Happy Easter everyone - may you have a blessed day! I am set for the 4th of July challenge! Weight goal: 14.3 lbs - have not weighted 170 for decades! Workout goal - continue my 3x week sessions with personal trainer! Join us!

Finally my stall is breaking! - I added 24 more oz of water and it's moving. Not a lot but I will take it.... its a marathon!
