150 days 55 down Happy Birthday to me!



Recommended Posts

WOW! So tomorrow is my Birthday. I don't think I have ever really been this excited for it. So much so that I'm having a Valentine's Couple's Date night at my house. Found some awesome outfits that I don't know which to wear. One that has been in my closet for about 20 years yes I said 20. That's how much I love it and could never get rid of it or ever fit me till now. What a journey the last 5 months have been. If it was not for an old friend that I lost touch with had not posted a picture of herself I would have never had known about this WLS. I have been going to many doctor's for years with no outcome. I fired the last one when I mentioned this and told me it will not work. But had no problem keeping me on the road to becoming a diabetic. It is hard work not for the weak at heart. Always keep think of where you want to be at the finish line. I have bad days and fall off the wagon but start again the next day to be better. You start to notice the little things you did when you where younger that you have not done in years. I'm starting to like to exercise..(a little) maybe because it does not hurt as much or not as embarrassed to be seen to be that fat. I'm still working a been more committed to it. Because the weight lost is slowing down the closer I get to my goal. I started as a size 20, now I'm looking at 12-14. There so much to choose from now in only 5 months. Happy Valentine's Day to all!! Big Hug and Kisses! Happy Birthday to myself the best gift I have ever giving to me.

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
