Amazed What I Saw In The Mirror

This is the first time I really went shopping for clothes since I had surgery last December. I have bought a few thing here or there but haven't taken a ton of things in the dressing room. I decided today was the day I was gonna find out my true new size. I took things that would have fit me before surgery and things I thought would be way too small. It was amazing to see how big they were from the size I used to be. The size I ended up at that fit me I started crying because I didn't think it was possible that they would fit but they did and now they are hanging in my closet. I haven't until today realized how much I have really changed. Its amazing how the outside of us change but it takes so much longer for our brains to caught up with it. It made my day to see how far I have came and I am not done yet. Watch out world I.am coming back alive!!!

Congrats! I hope to have the same miracle moment too one day. I get banded in January!

That is so awesome! It'd funny how our head says there is no way you will fit into that... but we do. Rock on!!

I shopped last weekend. Didn't know what size to shop for since for the last 10 years I've just bought 38-40 pants with an elastic band. I ended up at 34 with no stretchy band. Awesome aint it?
