I can finally fit into a size 18 jeans, and real jeans, not the stretchy ones!!!! I got to pull out a pair of designer ones i had been saving forever. And I'm wearing them right now! I'm so excited. It makes me want to go shopping!! Yay.

I think the warning points are only visible to you. You see yours and no one else's. :)

random thought #1:

I'm kinda tired of people noticing my weight loss this week. I'm just ready to be a goal and have that be who I am, and not need to be congratulated so often on "lookin goooood". ....but maybe I'm being an ungrateful grouch?

random thought #2:

At high weight, I had a closet full of clothes from 24 to 14. I'm slowly getting rid of the bigger sizes as I work my way down. Was happy this morning that I was able to put my 18 jeans in the "donate" bag and slip on some 16's. Then I came to work, and one of my friends told me my jeans are too big.....smh

random thought #3:

I guess pretty soon I'm going to have to do real shopping and not just closet shopping. Actually not sure how I feel about that...excited AND scared!

Random thoughts as surgery gets closer:

What happens if this doesn't work??

Oh my god, I can't eat that for awhile can I...should I do this (usually I answer this one right away, YES)

I would love to wear a normal size pair of boots and a cute pair of jeans. Can't wait to shop at normal stores.

Also...I keep thinking about talking to my mom about post op plans. So she asks me about surgery...so this is a pretty easy one...they just put like a sleeve over your stomach...like a shirt? WHAT?! I stared at her for a full five minutes, then laughed for another full 5...then explained it to her. "Oh so that's why you need a week of. I was going to say, aren't you being a bit dramatic for them just hooking a garment over your stomach?" If we didn't laugh, we would cry right?

Random thought: I want to be able to bend over without holding my breath and/or grunting. I want to be able to squat down and not need to hold on to something to get back up.

My random thought of the day: As I was walking past Victoria's Secret at the mall the other day: One day soon I will be able to fit into something there other than their perfume!

      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!!
