Whatcha Eating Today VSGers? PHOTO Thursday, August 16, 2018
What an inspiring thread! Everyone looks amazing regardless of where they are in their journey. I'm sitting in the parking lot of my center - 2 month check in (though it's actually 10 weeks today). I can't believe it's already been that long, sure doesn't seem like it.
My photos are from the beginning (Jan 1) to yesterday. I'm still about 50 lbs from my first goal and wow the skin! I'm going to be cliff-jumping with PCBR, spreading my arms and gliding like a flying squirrel. LOL
I finally took this leap because I had turned 59 and my mobility and health were both suffering. My husband is normal sized and I knew if I fell or worse that he wouldn't be able to move me, he'd have to call the medics like his dad had to for his mom. There are so many things I still want to do, and I want to feel strong and capable. Basically, I want the rest of my life to be the best of my life, and to wear normal-size clothes for the first time in at least 35 years. I haven't taken either one of my blood pressure meds since the day before surgery and my bp is the best it's ever been. Other than my damn knees my mobility is so much better. I can wipe myself without pulling a muscle and it's so much easier to shower as well. Is that TMI? I'm sure others can relate :)
