merry christmas to you and to me

I took measurements today and i was pleasantly suprrised!! and since it was soo good on my hips measurement i decided to go through OH and tally up my total inches lost for my entire weight loss since june/july. i didnt buy a measuring tape til the end of june or sometime in july but these are the only numbers i have. i did the math twice because i was uncertain i had the right number. it just doesnt make sense to me that even tho my weight fluctates betwn 295 and 305 i have still lost enough weight for the evilant of an elementary school student in kindergarten. or a large preschooler.
so i am trying not to brag because i could have done none of it without you but i am so excited that i have motivation and a reason to put up with these tiny portion sizes, lack of sweets and desserts and all these rules of pre-op to get me ready for the surgery.

I have lost 54 inches total! Yes thats not a typo! btwn 55 and 65 lbs lost and 54 inches gone! how many sticks of butter is that patrece? i buy tubs of butter not sticks LOL   :) <3 you all

LMAO!!! That my dear friend is 216 sticks of better GONE forever! WOOOO HOOOOO!!! WTG lady! Keep up the great work and focus. You are doing wonderfully! And thats alot of inches too! I am soooo proud of you! You should brag! You deserve to!

NOW... son't you think it is time to update your avatar so we can see the transformation you are making??? lol.
Hugs!

i will try to update my avatar tomorrow. it was tough getting that picture on there. i was looking at my clothes and myself in the mirror today and thought, wow i cant believe i am loosing weight! LOL 

Believe it lady! And enjoy it! Have a Merry Christmas!

Ptrece i tried to change my avatar and it wouldnt let me. stupid file sizes. pixels, etc. i dunno. anyways the shirt is my current size but for some reason i look bigger in these pictures. i added them to my profile.

Yeah Tose avatars can be a pain to upload. Try uploading them to photo bucket, resizing them smaller, then using the link they give you to put the avatar on. Best of luck lady!

What a true Christmas gift.  You have done some hard work.  Yes, it is time to set up a new avatar to show the new YOU.

if i gave anyone my info could they do my avatar from one of the new pics i posted on my profile? i dont have a photobucket account anymore and dont have the patience to fool with stuff. i did ok on christmas with dinner but had a hard time with the rolls and was forced to drink reg koolaid or nothing but didnt have much of it. so i cant have rolls/bread. i know that now. my weight has been bouncing within a 10 lbs range and its at 302 right now so i am pleasantly surprised. i thought 600 calories in rolls was going to really hurt me. and the 500 calories piece of cheesecake i had.

oh STOP it.....  I'm drooling over here reading this.  What I would give to have a nice warm roll right now... LOL...  Just the mere mention of cheesecake is gonna have me dreaming of it for the rest of the week.. LOL..  Glad that you had a good holiday.  Congrats on almost being out of the 300's.  I am hoping to get to 340 by the time I go to surgery.  7 more pounds to lose.  We shall see.  This liquid diet is may just be good for SOMETHING after all!

Cant help u much with the avatar tho'. sorry
