Hi All
So I am getting ready for my work day and I had to run back to my bathroom to get something I forgot. I got a glimpse of myself
in the mirror and I did a double take. So I snapped a picture. I was at my moms and she gave me the picture on the left. My jaw dropped. I was 317 or more in that picture. I can't even believe I let someone take that picture of me. I was definitely anti-pictures.
I realized that before I had lapband surgery in Dec of 2012 that I had actually lost 40 lbs on my own.
Needless to say I am very very pleased that I had this surgery performed. I have been keeping my calories under 1200 a day and been working out 4 plus times a week.
58 more pounds to go to my ultimate goal. I would like to lose 6-8 pounds a month to reach my goal. The more weight I lose and the better I feel in my clothes the more motivated I get to eat cleaner and cleaner. Not just stay under my calories but make every calorie count!
Hope everyone is doing well today. I had a couple of NSV's this weekend and am proud of myself and I wanted to share
Take care,
Reen
