Reoccurring Wow Moment
Hi Everyone,
I wanted to post a few things but first the Wow Moment... I can actually put my clothes in the dryer without the fear of them shrinking to the point of rendering them unwearable. I still kinda freak out a little but then I remember I can do this... hehe.
As you can tell from my tracker at the bottom early Monday morning I hit 70 pounds lost. That puts me at 302 lbs. I'm so happy that within the next week I'll be less than 300 lbs. I haven't weighed anything less than 300 lbs since 2001.
I have been very strict on how frequently I weigh myself. I don't want to do it any more frequently than every two or three weeks simply because I don't want to become discouraged.
To be honest, it's been less than 3 months and I've lost 70 lbs. This is crazy. My brain still hasn't caught up with my body. I look at myself in the mirror and still see the same person before surgery but if I look at a picture of me I see the progress I've made. I think that's a bit weird. Also, I'm really running out of clothes to wear. Some person is going to absolutely love me when I donate all of my American Eagle jeans, my dress shirts, slacks and sport jackets to goodwill. Oh and I'm wearing the sport jacket I wore in 2001... I don't like the cut of it but it will do in a pinch.
Anyways, I can keep going on and on but I won't. I hope everyone is well and enjoying the last few days of summer!

From one Kevin to another.... what you are experiencing is EXACTLY what I experienced. It is a magical journey and one that is so exciting and wonderful. Just allow it to happen. Don't examine in, just let it occur naturally. However, I would rec that you take a few pics here and there. In a year you are going to TRULY see how magical the journey has been.. Keep on losing cutie.. This journey has just begun!!
Thanks,
Kevin
