You look great!!

Thank you. I have about 12 pounds until my goal but weight loss has been super slow lately (1-2 pounds a month) so it's been a bit frustrating.

I'm sure that happens when you get closer to actual goal. Maybe slight changes here and there to your diet may help and increasing exercise. Do you have a lot of excess skin?

My skin is not to bad. My arms are the worst but a I carried a lot of weight in my arms. I still have a spare tire look to my belly but not super loose. My thoughts to my shock have bounced back great.

Also I've noticed as my weight has slown down my skin has gotten better!

For the first time in years you buy a top from the 'normal' section not the plus size section in Target.

Getting ready for ski season, I dug out a parka that I bought ten years ago (and I was heavy 10 years ago), and it is 1-2 sizes too big.

When you start seeing and feeling bones you forgot you had!

Does anyone else like to find and feel your unearthed bones? Last night I was laying down and rested my hand on my belly and noticed my ribs were right there! Counted them on each side! I am also totally fascinated with my collarbone




About 4 myths ago I found my ribs too! wow, I was amazed... Along with ankles and shines and bones on top of my feet wow ...where did they come from??? lol

Oh that happened to me when I got pulled over for speeding. He looked at my license and said, "That is not you!" I just laughed. He had me show him before and after photos just to prove my identity. Then he asked me a whole bunch of questions. By the time we were done, he forgot to give me a ticket for speeding and had taken down my number [emoji41]. I was a smooth operator!
P.S he is really cute and I have a date this Friday!!

Best story ever!!!!

When you can finally put your wedding ring back on! (I call it a success, even though it’s a little snug). 😍😊

      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!!
