Eight Months Out!

Ok, I'm really 8 months and 4 days out! Work has been crazy, so I'm just now posting my update! :)

Eight months out and going strong! I've gone from a tight 26/28 to a size 14/16. I am now down to 210 this morning from my highest being 325, but my surgery weight was 312. I am enjoying life to the fullest! I can now run and keep up with my three year-old little boy. It's the best feeling ever! As far as eating, I still can only eat 4 oz at a time, and still eat my Protein first. I do on occasion treat myself; popcorn is my weakness! Oh! Some would consider it a "curse", but I still can not eat breads and Pasta or even ice cream. I really don't miss it much. I'm Italian and grew up with my far share of pasta and pasta dishes! Haha! :)

I am getting married in three weeks, and crossing my fingers to be under 200 lbs! Eleven lbs in 21 days??! Maybe! :) As far as my final goal is to be 160 or 170, only 50-60 lbs to go!! Wish me luck! :)

Thanks for listening!

Suzette

Hey everyone! I just wanted to post a quick update on my weight loss! My personal goal was to be under 200 on my wedding day! Well I leave out tomorrow for home,TX, and still have six days before the wedding, and I am down to 204.6! That's super fabulous to me! Last week for giggles I put on my wedding dress, and yeah, it's getting a little big! Haha! I am obviously losing more inches, so after being paranoid that my dress will too big, I upped my carbs and still lost a pound! Haha! I'm still happy with my weight loss and maybe I'll hit goal, but if not, I'll still be a happy little bride! :)

Thanks for listening!
