These twelves are falling off me. I started at eighteens and they were tight! Same old brand.

Ok, I'm almost three years out and at goal ... Last week I walked into a dept store and bought 3 pairs of size 6 capris -- off the rack -- and they all fit!! One pair was tight, and when I looked at the tag, they are a size 4 that I picked up by mistake. Now, I have not lost any pounds on the scale in quite some time, but with my continued exercise and weight lifting, my body shape continues to get smaller. Whoo-hee! I feel so darned "normal!" Lol. Stick with it, everyone, there are many NSVs as the years go on!!

My most favorite NSV so far! I thought I'd never have to be a bridesmaid again, but after a whirlwind romance, my little sister wants a big wedding. So off to look at dreaded bridesmaid dresses we went. It was so liberating to not be the fat girl worried about them having a dress in my size or what it would look like. I was prepared to wear whatever she picked. And....I ended up looking really good on the dress she picked! The picture doesn't even do it justice. I'm the one in the pink dress. The actually dress is going to be blue.attachicon.gifIMG_0464.jpg

you are beautiful.

Sitting crossed leg (my new favorite)

Husband saying your so small ( even though I'm not)

Shopping where ever I choose

Siting in a chair and seeing the the seat on both sides of you

20' something men trying to make passes

The missed double looks

Today I rode a horse and it was awesome! I then rode in a paddleboat. As my daughter said, "Mom, just get in. You're skinny now -- live your life!"

Climbing a 20 ft cliff face and jumping off into the river.

Willing lugging the beer cooler up and down to the river even though I wasn't drinking any beer. Pretty sure I was the only one of my girlfriends that had the strength to do it alone.

Checking in at the airport and asking for a seat change and getting assigned the exit row (free of charge too!)

Spending a totally awesome weekend with dear friends of 20+ years and never once being tired or wanting to take a break.

This is to good to believe . Went to my sisters the Other day and we were talking about Halloween. She said wait I'll get u the girls costumes from last year. My nieces are 12 yo 16 n 18 and normal size to skinny skinny anyway wtf I fit in two of the costumes. I didn't Try the 18 yo one cause well she's 18 and I'm clearly not lol.

I hear ya on the Halloween costume. In all previous years, I had one criteria for a costume. Did it fit? If it did, that was my costume. It was always some kind of black robe. This year, a friend of mine invited me out for Halloween. I accepted. She said, don't forget you need a costume! I panicked. I don't have anything!! So go get something, she said. So now I am on a hunt for a costume. This year, I have more choices available to me. We shall see…

NSV. Walked into a restaurant bathroom last night and was faced with the big handicap stall and the "small" stall. Almost went to the big one when I realized I now have room to move around in the smaller one. It's awesome feeling "normal."

      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...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
