Feeling great and want to share

Just a note of encouragement to all of you out there that might be struggling with stalls. I highly recommend the 5 day sleeve test. It really helped me get back on track with my eating. I have cut out all starchy carbs, bread, Pasta, potatoes, rice, etc and am sticking to Protein and veggies. I feel awesome. Not only did I loose the extra 5 lbs I had gained since right before Thanksgiving but I have now broke the 150 lb barrier and came in this morning at 147! I feel awesome. I am going out today to try on size 8 jeans! I started at 193 lbs and busting out of 16's. This is so exciting! My goal is 145 lbs but now I can see that being reduced to even 140!! I have lost 46 pounds since getting sleeved by Dr. Nick (he's awesome) April 27, 2010. I am considering a Tummy Tuck in July and getting my arms done (I have always had wings, even as a teen) as well as some lippo from my upper back. This is so amazing and I feel so awesome. Will be turning 48 this year and am in the best shape of my life. My hubby loves my new bod and can't get enough. It has put the spark back into our 24 year marriage! I want to go to Hawaii for our 25th wedding anniversary and wear sleeveless tops and dresses. I have never had the confidence to do that before and with the weight loss and the plastic surgery to help fix these irritating issues, I am going to rock!! Lots of love to everyone out there and thank you for all of the encouragement along the way. This is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Stick to your program and excercise. The results will astound you!
