Just had to share...

6 weeks post-op and down over 30lbs which I was a little bummed about since I thought I would have lost more weight.... but then I tried on my "skinny" jeans and they were loose! I have to keep reminding myself that not all weight is fat. Being more acive means there's new muscles developing too. Throwing those jeans into the Plato's Closet pile of clothing made me do a happy dance!

      Eliminate the word only from you vocabulary. I only lost 30lbs becomes I lost 30lbs. Add an exclamation mark and a pinch of enthusiasm. Mix well, and serve warm: Hey everybody, look at me go! I lo

    That's a good way to look at it. I get frustrated that my weight loss is slower than my friend. Using your suggestion, I'm halfway to my goal!
