Well today it has been 3 months since my surgery. My sleeve still amazes me everyday and it is a fabulous tool that I have been provided with.
I have lsot 47.6 pounds (4.40 lbs from being half way to goal) I have lost 42.5 inches too
WOW-- My jaw still hits the floor with that. I have gone down 4 pant sizes so far.
My looser skin on my legs and stomach are starting to resemble a Sharpei ( wrinkly dog). I have loads of energy and instead of say to someone else (whihc I did all the time) to get me something or go do something for me, I get up and do it or get it myself.
I am able to dance around with my eldest grand-daughter who will be 3 on October 11th. She thinks Gammy is fun and I know I am now lol
I thrive on my new outlook, I conquered my fears that I had previously but not any longer. I love when someone compliments me. I don't turn away from it any longer. My once co-wroker calls me the incredible shrinking woman and says I look great and I say thank you but I already know that ;-)
I haven't loved myself in a very long time, that is up until now. Mixed emotions and feelings have always kep me down BUT no longer.
I have the right to be healthy. I have the right to live my life the way I see fit.
I have the right to make choices for myself and not feel guilty when I do.
I have the right to surround myself with people who love me and leave the nay sayers by the curb side.
I am fabulous in all ways and I rock!!!! ( you don't know how long or how much effort it has taken me to get to this point but I am here so get use to it)
LIVE life, LOVE lots and LAUGH often.
Here's to everyone who has been sleeved, waiting to be sleeved or just starting to think about being sleeved. It's been a wild ride thus far but it's the destination that I am after.
Cheers!!!
