Finally at the 80 pounds down mark... LOL I actually said Finally.... too funny.. I am so happy I cannot begin to tell you!! I am dating now and it is wierd and wonderful I have not told any of my dates about the wls.. I don't think they need to know until and if we get serious....I am trying not to be obsessed with the weight loss and how I look but its might hard... its strange when a man tells me he is attracted to me and thinks I have a great body, when My soon to be EX husband was not attracted to me .... it is hard to accept, when a man pays me such amazing compliments I always say thank you and accept it but in my mind I am like this is not me... they don't know the real me... you the one who once weighed 280 pounds.... go figure...But this is me and this will be me forever now I just have to get used to it thats all.... I am into a size 10/12 pants and skirts and size small /meduim tops.I even went from an 8 shoe to a 6.5 or 7... weird huh!! I am very very thrilled. I am still working out like crazy, I took a jewish holiday break last week though so Monday back on track!! I miss it. My hair loss has slowed down for the most part so I am glad. I have been shopping but I think I am done for now...LOL I bought a new mini wardrobe some things are still too small which is good and other things fit just right so I know I will get plenty of use out of these things until I am down the next 38.5 pounds... I am working now so I need clothes other than work out stuff and I am dating too so ya know and we women need to look beautiful and feel it too...LOL Thanks for always being here!!
