You look skinny already!

You look skinny already!

I am my. 6 th month post op. This morning I got n he scale thinking I had gained weight. Not a lot but felt like I had not done well in the last couple of days.n instead I found I had lost another 4 lbs making it a grand total of 96. Only 4 more to go to until the key mile stone of 100. I hope I make t. It has been hard but easier to live with as time has gone on. I want to lose another 25 to be the weight I was when I first got married. I was 28 and I looked and felt good about myself. This time it is again for me. But I would also like to live longer so I take care of my son with autism. My other ones still need me at 12 and 20 but my 15 year old is the baby of my life who will never leave home. He s the blessing I have but the burden I carry. I would not trade for the world, but it makes the rest of my life having to center around it. I as married up to 7 years ago. But as I got older he had a mid life crisis that involved a girl 17!years younger then me. In short he got her knocked up x2 and then left her and me and the kids and went for a family visit to Africa that has lasted 7 years. Maybe after all of this I will find myself someone who will love me and my great group of boys.

My shirt isn't tight on me.. Woot lol

Awesome! Lookin' good!! I feel like 6 weeks must be one of those "speical spots" in this process where a lot of people can look in the mirror and really notice a significant change.

Today I was going to go run some errands, and I put on the same shirt I wore the day before surgery....I looked like a giant dress and I had to change into something else!!! It was waaayyy too big. I'm not a 2XL anymore. How refreshing.

I was 3x or bigger. I bought a yoga outfit for running around in. Went to work in it the whole place came out and looked at me. They know I have lost the weight but with theses clothes they could really see the new me. I had not thought of it but they could not really see the new bod while I have been wearing the old clothes. I am waiting to buy a lot until I loose about 20 more pounds so I can get it in the size I hope to stay for the rest of my life give or take 10 pounds.
