You know you lost weight when



Recommended Posts

It happened to me this week. All of my size 26W-28W, 3X clothes were so loose I could no longer where them in public so I went out and couldn't believe it when everything I bought was 16W-18W and 1X! I am still looking at the tags thinking these can't possibly fit, but they do!

And when child does a subtle brag on social media by telling her friend to step back while taking pix of the two of us...so the whole body shows.

When you mention to the family that you'd like to lose 10 more pounds and your kids say Mom! You don't need to lose any more weight!

And when you wake up in the morning and stretch when you get out of bed and the shorts you are wearing fall off.

You know you've lost weight when...

You ask to borrow your teenage daughter's size 6 lululemon workout pants and consider NOT covering your a** for the first time ever because it actually looks kinda hot for a middle aged woman! Lol. I crack myself up... ????

When you don't bother putting away the sewing machine any more, because you are constantly altering clothes and taking them in, until they no longer look presentable.

When you no longer look for the equipment in the gym facing away from the mirrors, but actually enjoy seeing yourself as your muscles become more defined and lifting starts looking good!

When not only your bottom fits in your swivel desk chair, but your arms and elbows too! (Inside the arm rests that is).

You can buy lawn furniture at the drug store. 2 chairs and a table for $28?!

Your pants fall to the ground in public.

OMG!!!! That totally happened to me yesterday! I was wearing a half-slip under my skirt, and when I was on the elevator, I looked down to see that the slip was on the ground. I had coworkers in the elevator with me and was mortified.

When you're getting off the plane, move your hand down quickly and have your wedding ring go flying across the terminal

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
