So far 80 pounds lost!
I went ziplining, bought myself fitness clothes, got a membership for Zumba and swimming and yoga. My friend bought me a fitness towel with inspirational sayings on it for my surgiversary. You can see where my head is at these days, lol.

That is AWESOME! LOL but I already have a gym membership that I use regularly and have joined the running room, planning on trying yoga this weekend. I found the best towels evar! at the royal winter fair this year (thin but oh so absorbent)
I suppose I could have saved something for a special occasion, but my head is there too!

Tattoo?
Referral to Ottawa Civic Hospital in March 2016, surgery on Dec 23 with Dr Neville,
Loss so far M1=21, M2=10, M3=8, M4=8, M5=7, M6=6, M7=5
That is in the cards once I am 'done' and stable at a weight. And possibly after if I decide I need to do something about the bingo wings. I would like an Art Deco style pheonix rising on my upper arm.
