Look at my tracker!! hehe

Look at my tracker!! 45 pounds and I will be at goal!! 45 pounds!!! Do you have any idea how long it has been since I only had 45 pounds to lose??? I can't even remember that! I will get there in a few short months! I continue to feel blessed every day that I did this. Every pound that melts away will be a number on the scale that I won't ever see again. I can hardly wrap my mind around that. I can shop in any store, shopping is soooo hard lol. My brain has not caught up to my body, still scared to try those clothes on thinking that they won't fit.....but you know what? THEY DO! I have a whole new relationship with food, no more am I living to eat, now I am truly eating to live. I eat what I want and when I am full, I get up and walk away. How cool is that???? I am no longer ignored in stores, people smile and ask me what they can do for me - I am not invisible anymore. I get my hair done, my nails done, a massage...I take care of myself! I am learing to love myself again and it feels so amazing.

For anyone contemplating this surgery, it is a scary thing. It is permanent, it's not like a diet where you lose the weight and then you go back to doing whatever you were doing. It's a forever change. And it is worth every butterfly in your tummy and every tear you will shed. It will give you your life back!

Ok - whew! I will stop babbling on. :blah: I just want everyone who has ever struggled, ever failed, ever felt like they were worthless and weak to feel the same way that I do.
