Say it aint so!!!

I couldn't believe it.  I went shopping yesterday and I had to double check the size I was buying - an 8!!!  Single digits.  I bought 2 pair Bermudas and 2 pair capris/crops in a size 8.  I bought 2 size small shirts (I think they must run big because I have been consistantly in a medium).  I can't get over this STILL since yesterday so I had to post about it. I have not been in the single digit sizes for 18 years!!!  I also lost another pound this weekend so I'm 15 from goal.   I have gone from an 18/20 to an 8.   I have been a "slow" loser compared to others but it has never discouraged me because eventually, it all pays off and the tool works. I love my WLS!!!!!! (((Hugs))) Michelle

Congrats Sweetheart!  You are such a fine example!  Even tho you have been a "slower" loser you kept at it and are reaping the rewards!  I am so proud of you and so happy for you!  You rock!! Hugs!

Aww thanks hon! It's a great feeling.  My surgeon said to be a patient patient and not to compare myself to others and I am so glad I took that advice to heart.  It's amazing how fast the time flies and before you know it, the pounds add up.   I can honestly say I've never regretted this surgery - never once.  I am so blessed to have been able to have it!  Woohoo WLS! :) (((Hugs))) Michelle

WHOOO HOOOO !!!  Good job hanging in there!!!  Keep up the awesome job and you'll be at your birthday goal by the end of the long weekend!!!  Way to work it.....

 

 

Congrats Michelle! Isn't this just the craziest time of your life???  Do you think you were really prepared for all the changes?  I mean, it's easy to think about what you think is going to happen, but then to really have it happen????  Shocks me all the time!!! Fifteen pounds is sooooo close!  I hope you do make it by your birthday...You said August? That's a couple of months away.  You should be there or ever so close by then!!  I'll be cheering you every pound of the way! Debi

Hi Michelle, Isn't it great when you get a surprise on the size of clothing that fits you now.  This tool continues to amaze me.  You work it and it will work for you.  My surgeon told me that my body will lose at it's own rate and it's not a race, so just follow the program and you will lose.   Congrats on your size 8's and smalls.  Have a great day! Bonnie

Thank you Bonnie and thanks everyone for your supportive/encouraging responses!  Love ya all! (((Hugs))) Michelle :)
