Stepping out of the plus size clothing section at my fav store!

Being able to shop anywhere and not saying "they don't have my size in here"

Lookin down and seeing my feet and my kitty! And not just my stomach! Lol

Sex without my stomach being in the way

Wearing a belt

Wearing high heels

Puttin lotion on or tying my shoes without running out of breath

Crossing my legs with ease

Having a lap

1. Not sweating after just getting out of the shower with just drying myself off.

2. not getting out of breath tying my own shoes.

3. Not being able to breath when I lay down cuz the fat on my neck chokes me.

4. Not having my kids friends look at me funny cuz I'm fat.

5. Having sex without being self conscience about my body.

The list could go on forever!

1. Wondering what I will wear when I go out because I actually have choices, and not hoping for any reason in the world (apocalypse anyone?) to get out of having to show myself in public.

2. Blending in. Not standing out for my weight or just as importantly, my freakishly oversized chest.

3. Feeling comfortable that if one of my kids takes off running I'm going to be able to catch them instead of flailing uselessly behind with my lungs burning as they potentially run in to danger.

4. No longer feeling the suffocation of knowing what I am doing to myself by overeating/poor food choices/zero exercise yet for whatever reason, not taking the action to change it.

5. Being happy to leave the house without the dread of running in to someone who last saw me 'x' pounds ago.

Happy to report that this is pretty much my reality now :) . Well except for the running part, but the boobs are getting small enough now that I'm ready to work on that without risking black eyes/bruised knees :P .

I look forward to the removal of my IV and drain, going home and cuddling my puppy, healing enough to hike, put on my goal t shirt and have it fit, not be winded when I hike.

I was sleeved yesterday and feel wonderful!

Oh my god!!!!! A million things, but most importantly:

1- Go into any store with confidence.. and not just shop at the XXX size store for the rest of ur life...

2- Feeling young again.... ( I'm 36 and I looked like I was 50 :(

3- Going on rides with my kids and walking them to the park.

Quitting all my diabetes meds, high blood pressure meds so my body can go back to functioning naturally.

Waking up feeling good and up not like I was hit with a mack truck.

Being my old cheerful happy self again before the weight gain.

Go back to work feeling great and healthy.

Not being the fat girl at the family holiday party and have everyone give me the lecture on how to lose weight.

Feeling wonderful and not caring what people say.

Mainly just take care of my self for once and be self aware that focusing on others and not me got me to where I am today!

Self Love and be in Harmony.

Go on a honeymoon with my new husband and not postpone it just because I felt I didn't look good. I was brave enough to have a white wedding as a plus size girl but not ready for a honeymoon. Lol.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
