Today I *SAW* the changes



Recommended Posts

I was at the gym today and after changing into my regular clothes i was drying my hair - in front of these HUGE mirrors which i despise,, but I caught a side ways glance at myself and actually saw for the first time the changes my body is doing,, smaller - not a lot - im only down 36 lbs... but i saw that it was working and that is a huge HUGE thing for me.

Congrats! It's an amazing feeling isn't it. For me it was when I was walking downtown and caught a reflection of myself in the buildings! I stopped in my tracks and said...that's ME! I am sure the people around me thought I was nuts, but I was amazed and so very happy!

Yay! Good job!

It's a great feeling to see muscles & definition in places I've never seen before. And just the overall shrinking of my silhouette...I love it!

Congrats! I don't "see" mine yet but everyone tells me it's there. Maybe I should stop looking in half mirrors and find a while one!!!!

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
