The Long Road To Success

Well I'm 9 weeks and 5 days post-op and I'm proud to say that I have lost 52lbs. It's been a real rough recovery but it's getting better and int becoming more optimistic that this is going to work. I've lost 5 inches around my stomach and I went from a size 24 in pants to a 16 and from a 3x in shirts to an xl almost large. I'm the most narotic and worrisome person in the world and I have come this far which means anyone can. Lately it's been rough but my surgeon told me some of things I've been experiencing are normal so I'm a little more positive. Just wanted to share my happiness with all of you and hope you are all doing well on your journey. And to the people who aren't even a month post-op and completely miserable, it will get better trust me. The first month was horrible and I was starting to regret my decsion to have the surgery, I was tired and sore and depressed. I had more emotional breakdowns than a pregnant woman LOL. Anyway enjoy your weekend everyone!
