Yesterday at the grocery store I wanted something on the bottom shelf. Instead of bending over, I did a full squat and was able to pop back up without any knee pain, trembling muscles, or hand/arm support.

Next week my office will hold a big international reception to receive a Minister of our country and I just got the new assignment today from my boss that they want me to be the MC of this reception.

Ok I worked for this office for 5 years, we held a lot of receptions and events but I was never asked to do this duty. I know I could do it well because I'd done this kind of things since high school until I put on weight, no one would ask me to do this. Can't help but thinking it must be something about my new look.

Not sure I should be glad or sad about it.

Went shopping yesterday, and didn't try on or buy anything bigger than a size Medium! And I sold a pair of my size 16 jeans on Poshmark, because I'm not going to need them ever again!

I'm only a week out and had my very first NSV!! I bought a pair of dress pants 3 years ago that were way too small at the time, just in case I decided to lose weight. I found them in the back of my closet and decided to try them on...and they fit perfectly!! I'm so excited for the rest of this journey that I'm on!!

I'm now wearing the same size clothes as my 13-yr old son (he's 6ft tall and 150lbs). Never thought that would happen!

I can comfortably sit in the back seat of a compact car and fasten my seat belt without feeling like I am choking.

I finally can cross my legs!!!woohoo!!

It actually happened unintentionally during discussion with colleagues and I just realized it a few seconds later that my legs were crossing! I was like, whao! What I'm I crossing my legs? Almost forgot the work lol

I usually don't sit crossing legs even when I was thinner, but now I'm like a crazy woman, I cross my legs every chance I get because I CAN!! LOL

PS I showed my husband my leg crossing NSV and he was a bit surprised because he didn't know that I couldn't cross my legs when I was fat.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
