7 months out and down 100lbs

Nov 15, 2009

Well here I am at 7 months out and i am down 101lbs since i started back in late february early march. I weighed in yesterday morning at 193. WOW is all I can say. My goal for Thanksgiving was 194 so I have done better than that . I haven't weighed this amount in about 12 years so it really does feel great. We took the kids over to the playground at the school a little while ago and I actually jogged 2 times around the track. I was a little winded but i probably could have jogged another lap or 2.I told my husband that the last time I actually jogged was about 20 years ago. I have also been getting ALOT of compliments about how good I look or how much weight i have lost. I guess that it is really starting to show now. I feel great and i am so glad I had this surgery. I do want to mention that i am scared of transfer addictions. My Dr. Ok'd me to drink wine if I wanted. But i find that i can drink 1/2 bottle and be pretty tipsy and then sober up pretty quick. I have made a promise to myself that i will only drink on special occasions or if me and the hubby go out for dinner. It's not like i am drinking every day right now. I will usually drink 1-2 nights on the weekends usually 2 glasses of wine in a night. I have read alot about transfer addictions especially alcohol. I know alot of drs want people to wait a year, but I did ask my dr and he said that if I wanted a drink I could have one. I am sure he didn't mean 3-4-5 drinks so i do try to keep that in mind. The holidays are coming and I am really not worried about the food, because I can't eat much and i can't eat anything with sugar.  My next goal is 180 by New Years. That is only 13 lbs. I know i can, I know i can, i know i can..........................
