First time in over 10 years...



Recommended Posts

So tonight I bought two suits at Macy's....both are size 18. I haven't been in a suit that started in a "1" in over 10 years. Yes...I bought them in the plus size department but I've gone from a 3x to a 1x since I had my surgery in April.

Over the weekend I was the emcee for a fundraiser /dance and haven't seen some of the folks for over a year. Last year at this time I was over 300 pounds so it was nice to dance and feel my body move so much easier. I got lots of nice compliments...mostly that I looked like I was feeling good....and the truth is ...I am.

I am a very grateful gal tonight.

Congratulations! I know what you mean about getting out of the "X" sizes. I was at Catherines and bought a 0X size. Now I'm in 18/20. Which may be the same I guess, I don't know.

Dancing, huh? Way cool! Party on, girl!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
