Making progress....(-104lbs & pics)
Hi everyone,
I saw Dr. P last week and all is well with my bloodwork.
She's happy, the Nut is happy and I'm happy :)
And at 4 months out, I am down 104lbs!!
Of course 33 of that was right before surgery but I'm still counting it :)
I can't believe it!
But as thrilled as I am about losing 104lbs, here's where my real progress is being made...
I'm sure a lot of you can relate...I have always despised having my picture taken, even before becoming morbidly obese. And as some of you know, I have a 14yr old daughter that is my world and up until my RNY there have been no pictures of me or the two of us anywhere since she was a baby (to be honest there are only a few of those). This is a huge regret and is so sad and embarrassing that I can't believe that I am posting about it. But since my RNY, I have been trying to leave my comfort zone and take pictures with her. I have so much catching up to do! I love her more than anything and I have to do this for her and for me.
So, I've decided to include some pictures in this post....I hope they show up :)
If not they are on my profile.
[The pics are from the day of surgery, 3 weeks out, 3 months out and now - 4months out]

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
