Hey Guys, Welp... I am offically six months out! So I thought I'd give a little update. I have lost 96 pounds and I am 44 from my goal! I went shopping today with my hubby yesterday at old navy, i have been wearing size 16's, but hubby said just go try on these 14's, so I did thinking for some reason that they wouldn't fit because they looked small. I get into the dressing room to put them on, they fit, they zipped, and then I looked at myself and they are LOOSE!!! I was like OMG, It has been years since I have been able to fit into that size. As for tops I am no longer plus size. Just womens XL!!! Food is being tolerated well, but my protein is still a struggle everyday. I am so glad to hear that they other post op's are doing well, and I always look forward to hearing everyone's updates!!! Hugs, Jacqueline

THAT IS SO AWESOME!! I'm so happy for you! I can't wait to cross over to the losing side. I'm really dreading the beginning stages of this. I'm really nervous that i'll be depressed without food. But i'm trying to look on the BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT SIDE! Anyway.. CONGRATS!!! LOOKING AMAZING!

Thank You! You'll be a looser before you know it ;) I wouldn't worry about being depressed with out food. I thought the same thing, that I enjoyed eating, and "treating myself" and even relying on food to get me through rough times ( sad, bored, whatever... ) The difference now is amazing. I see food in a whole new light, maybe the light that it's supposed to be looked at, for nutrition and to keep your body alive! It's weird though because sometimes I feel as if I have no release now, I used to use food as such an unhealthy crutch that when I get those feelings now ( sad, bored, whatever.... lol ) I don't know what to do. I find myself trying to find ways to deal with it other than grab a pint of ice cream ( cause I can't now ) idk. That's just my experience. Your gonna do great!!!! Hugs, Jacqueline
