WOW moments and encoragement

I was 12 weeks out as of yesterday and I just wanted to share some HOLY CRAP moments and let you pre ops know that it WILL be you having relatively the same moments. I am down 63lbs as of yesterday.  I started this thing at 251 and am now 189.  I can't believe it.

Last night I went to the mall and bought 2 pairs of size 12 jeans from Abercrombie & Fitch (I was a size 18).  I can't believe it.

I LIKE to exercise.  I got a little upset at how fast my time was going on the elliptical machine this morning.  Who ever would have thought it? I went to The Gap last night and bought some very cute skirts, size M!!!!! I can wear a babydoll type shirt and not look pregnant!!!! My backfat is gone and I can wear strapless shirts!!!! I went to a bar on Friday night and got told repeatedly by different people (including women) that I (ME!!!???!!!???) was the most beautiful woman in the place!!!!!!  That blew my mind!!!! I didn't think this would ever happen to me.  Never in a million years.  I thought I was going to be the one person this surgery didn't work for.  All you preops out there better prepare to be shocked as hell over the changes you will see happen.  Keep your chins up and forge ahead like the strong folks you are.  This is better than Disneyland!!!!!!

Congratulations on your 63 lbs lost! Wishing you continued success and happiness. Sher
