Feels incredible!!! Woot woot!!

When your coworker says, "girl I don't even recognize you from behind anymore" and others say, "yeah I thought we had a new nurse working here until you spoke to me. "

I have had the exact same thing said to me! Too funny! Nurses are great for our egos!

I went to good will (temporary clothing) and was looking in 18/16 instead of 24/22/20. I walk by a mirror and wonder who's next to me( it's just me) my niece saw me in street clothes (we work together) and said crap you have the size you were. Good day good Day

Auto correct. Half the size you were

*When you try on pants you bought you thought you would fit into in a month or so and they are already to big!!!

*When you can move the drivers seat up another foot and can reach the pedals without have to stretch.

* when you walk past a mirror and wonder who is in the room with you

* when your grandson (one year old)takes a while to recognize you every other weekend:)

I love getting to go to TJ max and not having to shop in plus size. I'm 3.5 months out, and have gone from a 20 to an 8/10 pant size. Almost got into a size 8 dress but my bust is still to big. I love 5hat feeling you have lots of selection and can try just about anything on.

When you start tucking your shirts into your pants because you realize that you look more slender that way than untucked, and you want to show off your new bod. :o B)

When your doctor emails you saying your cholesterol results are phenomenal and cuts your medication in half. She will recheck in 3 months and hopefully off for good!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
