Jeez I feel fantastic!

I cant stop looking at myself :)

This operation has simply been miraculous. I havent broken any weight loss speed records but then I didnt have that much to lose in the first place. I'm now down to 95kg, Im fitting into a regular store size 18 (US 16), I've had my hair straightened so I now have straight silky non frizzy Jennifer Anniston Hair, I have cool clothes, not mumsy large size crap.

I started running regularly a few weeks back and the weight is literally FALLING off me now, not so much in kilograms but in inches, every week I can get into something that didnt fit a week ago kind of thing. I've got a wardrobe full of stuff I've bought over time that I can now get into and I have my nice long acrylic french nails back. Instead of feeling huge and masculine I now feel divine and willowy and am enjoying towering over other people again, lol.

Where my motivation was waning a few weeks back, this sudden cascade of NSV's has really fired me up again and I'm still going strong with only 1.3ml in my band, so I also have the bonus of being able to eat anything and have never even come close to PBing at 4 months down the track.

I really think I've died and gone to heaven.

What a fantastic post. It is great to hear inspirational messages like yours, especially for us pre-banders.

Thanks.

You are an inspiration! I always enjoy your posts and especially this one. I feel your joy and keep thinking of myself as "willowy." That is a great description. Good for you!!!! :biggrin1:
