16 Months Post Op (PICS)

I don't post too often anymore but I think this deserves a post today.  I had both a scale and a non scale victory today.

Today I hit my personal goal weight of 135lbs.  My highest weight was 237 lbs. The last 8 lbs was pretty tough.  I was a size 20 pants. See picture taken below today. I fit in one leg now.

This weight is at 227 lbs, right before surgery



August 11, 2012



So I decided to celebrate today on hitting my weight goal and buy a chocolate bar. At the gas station there was a deal, buy 2 candy bars for $2 dollars. The bill came to $2.28. I only had $1.28. I said I’ll be right back I have more cash in my car.  As I race back to pay for my candy, a nice looking man in suit smiles at me and opens the door for me. The lady at the counter said the gentlemen just paid my dollar for me. The chocolate bars are free to go.

How embarrassing he saw my 2 candy purchase.  At least I could thank him for my chocolate habit. I run after him to thank him. He is already in his car. I simply waved and said, “thank you, I needed a chocolate fix."

As I drove off, I thought to myself, now that was new experience.  My girlfriends never told me about this. They never told me the secret "that skinny girls get bought chocolate".  Damn it, I should have done VSG years ago.
