xpost- Made it to minus 100!
Well, I've made it to the century club as of this week. I started this journey weighing in at 313 pounds, and between my 10 days of preop liquids and getting my sleeve, I am down 100 pounds. Simply amazing!!! Next stop, onederland!
Pros- nearly everything. I feel smaller, healthier, more energetic, more in control. I am just more comfortable in my own skin, less self conscious.
Cons- yes, I have excess skin and my hair is falling out, but I knew that going in and it far from negates all the positives I've experienced so far.
I also had a couple NSVs this weekend while out shopping. I was able to wear tall boots (yes, they were wide calf, but I couldn't even wear those before) and they looked cute, and I am down to a 16-18 from a 26-28 last May. Woot!

Wow. Wow. Wow! How FABULOUS you look! So crazy, since I see you most every week. The before and after are indeed a great picture of how far you have come. I just love seeing you on Saturdays, and am honored that I get to walk down your path with you. Keep up the most awesome work! BTW-I have been packing 3 days of food to take with me on Monday, just so I can have the option of "mood" eating. Thanks for the great tip! (It is also very weird to see a full bag of food in the fridge. Kinda creeps me out, but by Wednesday, it's back to the bits and pieces that I am more accustomed to seeing.)
All the best,
