Okay, I promised myself that I wouldn't try and or buy any new clothes for awhile. (Until I shed my first 50 pounds) I needed new shoes to wear to the gym this evening. So I went and picked up my mom and we went to the mall. As we were working our way to the checkout, mom said,"Hey Deb what size are you now?" I said, "I really don't know mom. I haven't tried on any clothes in a long time." She grabs two pairs of jeans and said here try these, If they fit I'll get them for you. Not seeing what she grabed I was like oh boy. I went into the fitting room I was nervous, anxious and excited all in one. They fit!! :D:D

So I went from the size 18 spandex jeans from lee riders, to size 16 levis (NON SPANDEX). Now granted I may only wear them for a month. But it damn sure feels good knowing and seeing how much smaller I am now. :D:D I haven't worn a 16 IN YEARS!!!!! OH YEAH!!!!!!

Moms - gotta love them!! Congrats on size 16 non-spandex!! Better enjoy them before they get too big :-)

My Mom bought me a dress and a darling top years ago during one of my failed weight loss attempts. At the time, both were just "a little" too small. Of course, over they years they became WAY too small. I can't wait to get into them and let my Mom know her encouragement and support finally paid off!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
