The New Me...



Recommended Posts

When I had surgery almost 8 months ago, the thought of losing 175 lbs seemed like such an impossible pipe dream. Today I am officially down 130 lbs (side note 11 lbs til onederland!!!) and only have 45 more to go. I never in a million years thought I would be living this wonderful life. My health is better, my attitude is better and I feel soooooo much better. Today I bought a large shirt to wear with my size 14 pants. WTH... its crazy to think that almost 8 months ago I was wearing a 3x and size 28 pants that were tight!!!

The stalls have been many but the overall outcome has been spectacular. I can hardly wait to hit my goal weight... which I know now is attainable!!!!

Thank you for sharing this! I have trouble keeping focused that this is not an over night cure...but a life long process. It seems like forever going forward..but when you look back it's such a short time.

Congrats on your sucess!! Hoping your 11 lbs to "onederland" is soon!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
