I was out at a Restaurant today for Lunch, when a Older Lady that I see every now and then came up to see me.

She asked me if I finally got down to the size I wanted. My Husband opened his mouth and said " Oh No !,, She will not stop yet !

She has a long way to go !" He was as proud as a Peacock ! So I looked at her and said no not yet ! and her mouth dropped, then she said to

the Restaurant "DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH WEIGHT SHE LOST ? SHE LOST A LOT !" Then she said well,,, I guess you know how much you wan to lose. I just nodded my head, then said see you again.

So chalk up another one.... They have really been coming lately...

I've had to pul my scrub pants up a lot more often at work lately. So I finally decided to go to the mall and try on a medium. They didn't have the color I needed nor the right pants, but I tried on a medium top and, it fit! I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs in the dressing room. I'm head over heals ecstatic. I'm gonna have to order them online, or see if my supervisor can get them for me. I'm not sure if I'll fit into the pants yet, but hopefully I will.

To think, I started off in a 3 XL (wore a 4XL scrubs at one point) to think almost 11 months later, I'm in a medium, I could not be happier. And honestly I've done it on my own basically with little help from the band. (I never sought out restriction, after I lost my initial restriction I had a 4-5 months post op, I only had one tiny fill, then decided not to get anymore)

I was in the drug store yesterday looking for the right vitamin. The pharmacist came out to help me. I picked up a bottle to see if it had the ingredients that I wanted and she said, "You don't want those. They're formulated for people over 50." I said, "I am over 50." Her jaw dropped and she said, "You're kidding?!"
