Dropped 2 Sizes

Jun 02, 2009

I have 3 days before my 2 month visit.  I have to come back so soon because of the second surgery I had to open my passage way so I could get food and drinks in.  Well that slowed down my weight loss but not much.  I am so happy now.  I still have problems with keeping some stuff down but I kinda know once it hits my tongue what will and what won't work.  I'm drinking a lot more now also. So things are better.  I go to my 2 month visit on Friday and I my scale has me down 83 lbs total  I'll report what the dr.'s scale said when I come back.  Our scales are really close my scale maybe 1.5 lbs lower.

I am so excited, I'm now in a 24 comfortably and my bra size keeps shrinking .    I'm not too upset as long as they remain larger than the belly.  LOL.  It was such a good feeling to go in the store and know they would have my size and for me not to keep looking till I found a 30 or a 32.  Those pants and tops now swollow me up.  Some of my old 26 pants are hanging off.  I can still pull that off for now with a belt and a big top.  But you know what I don't want no big top on.  I am in a 22/24 top and it looks great on me.  I have so much more energy now.  I find if I'm not drinking I do get a bit dizzy.

So now I went out clubbing with a friend who had the surgery 11 mos ago. and  she has been getting all kinds of attention from the men while I sat there and looked on.  Let me tell you I was the show stopper and I believe it was this new found confidence I have in myself.  I'm little by no means but I feel better about myself and that's what counts.  She could not believe it.  All she could say was well, well, well.  I really don't know what that meant but hey why worry what other's think.

I'm wearing pretty dresses and cute clothes now.  I'm learning exactly how much I can eat.  I just hate when people who know a little about the procedure keeps telling me that I'm eating too much or asking how can you eat that.  Honestly and no lie because I don't have to lie here we all know what we go through although each of us is different.  I can eat once a day a total of about a cup of food right now.  I can drink all day though, so I just keep it to the unsweetened decaf tea.  I have 64 oz of that at work and then home i sip on a bottle of water.  I can't eat too late for some reason.  The keytones finally left me the heck alone.  yeah!!!

So now I'm pretty much in the swing the exercise is picking up also.  I need to really get serious with it though because I'm loosing pounds but not inches as fast.  I feel If I stepped the work out  up some more I will see better results.  Anyhow, I hope all of you are doing well.  Have a great week and stay blessed.
