I hit GOAL everyone!

c18f1db78bc3086048a45a639070d694.jpg

1 year

1 month

10 days

And I hit my goal!

Sept 21/15 - Oct 31/16

Lots of hard work.

Many sacrifices.

Lots of self talk.

Much dedication and self motivation.

But it was all worth it!

The time flew by and I can't believe I am where I am just 13 short months after my Gastric Bypass surgery.

I saved my own life and will thank myself everyday.

I wasted too much of my precious life and now I'm gonna make up for it!

Turning 41 in a couple days and I've never felt better, happier, healthier and of course lighter!!!

Thanks for all that have traveled along this journey with me!

Heather

I have been lately, yeah. I was really worried that I'd have loose skin (aka bat wings) so I've been concentrating on upper body lifting and I'm quite pleased with the results. I do have some damage, don't get me wrong, (especially when I bend over, you can see the loose wrinkly skin a bit) but overall I'm happy and proud of what I've accomplished :)

Thank you for the nice compliment!

I am going to continue on working on toning up more and maybe even lose a few more pounds :)

I think the hard part now is maintaining! Eeekkkk! LOL

Thank you!

Nope.

Well... not yet. It's on my mind but I'm going to try to work at least trying to tighten it up a little more and go from there.

I have abs!

Who knew!

Thanks everyone!

I'm still in shock, really.

I even weighed myself this morning and am now 2 pounds under my goal!

I'm flabbergasted!

I never thought in a million years that I'd weigh what I do, it's still so surreal!

Yet motivating.... ;)
