Almost a year!!!

Well, I am about 3 weeks shy of my one year mark from the date of surgery.  I can't believe how fast the year has gone by!   So...here is my progress:

I am weighing in at 142lbs, wearing size 10 jeans, and size medium shirts!   I am now smaller than I was when I started college!!  Wow!!!!
So, next on my list is a tummy tuck to remove the excess skin from stomach.   I had my consultation about a month ago (I've been pretty stable with my weight, and really don't wanna lose any more weight).....and my surgery is scheduled for this Thursday November 17th, the day after my birthday.....what a great birthday present huh??

I am nervous about the surgery, but excited at the thought of having a flat tummy for the first time in a very, very long time!!!!!

Wish me luck!!!

Time Flies!!!

Wow!!!   I can't believe it has been 8 months since my surgery!  I am feeling absolutely fantastic!!
I have lost 92lbs to date, and weigh in at 154lbs.   I am so happy!  
I started off wearing a size 24 jean, and as of today I am able to fit into a size 10/12!!!!!!!!  The last time I wore a size 10/12, was at the beginning of my freshman year of college, back in august of 1995!  

It's funny, I have many friends and family that tell me I'm beautiful, but for the first time in a very long time, I feel beautiful!!! What an amazing feeling that is.
I will be honest though, I have not kept up with my exercise the way I should....but I am determined to get back on the horse and work it hard!!!

Thank you all for your love and support in this journey.  I will try to update this blog more often :)

6 months

Well, it has been 6 months since my surgery.  All is going well, and I am still working hard.  The weight has slowed down, but it is still coming off.  When I started this whole journey, I was at 246lbs.....as of today, I now weigh 164lbs!!!!   I still have another 30-40lbs to go according to the doctor....but I am happy where I'm at now as well.

Thanks for all the support from my friends and family :)
