Getting admiring glances and remarks from husband when I get ready for work each day.

Compliments like "your shrinking" from the gals at work.

Wearing a dress because it is the latest fashion trend.

Fitting into to clothes I have not worn in ages.

Shopping

Being able to like myself again, what went on in my head when I was fat was worse than anything.

Maybe the BMI is a scale victory but I have plenty of NSV's... loving myself in photo's again, towels that fit, all the clothes in my closet that are falling off and the belt that I'm wearing today needs a hole added because its too big!! :) I love my band!!

I think this is the best one yet: I'm no longer the LAST to be ready when we are getting ready for any particular outing because I don't have to try on 50 different combination to end up wearing the same pants I did the day before. And that's considering I STILL haven't gone clothes shopping, so all I have is the big stuff I've been wearing, the ones I've had a chance to take in, AND THE ONES THAT DIDNT FIT YET!!!!

Today I waited for hubby outside and asked him if he was ready about 5 times. :P

I have only lost 35 pounds in 4 months. However, I went from a size XL in belts to a size medium. I went from a size 16 in pants to size 10. I went from an XL shirt to L, but that's only because I have a small belly and big you know what.... Lol. Loving it!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
