Bariatric Buddy
1st GOAL almost reached
I have almost reached my 1st celebratory milestone of being under 300 pounds. It has been 5 years since I have been there. I was supposed to have waited until this Friday to weigh, but that darn scale called my name "jump on me Frances", on Tuesday. I just knew that it would probably show a gain since working the weekend and being off my schedule then. Low and behold, it said I had lost 2 pounds. Hey I will take that number. I am even thinking that I might have been holding on to fluid, since Sunday and Monday I was peeing alot and I know that my water intake was not any higher than it normally is. Since beginning to work out (3 weeks ago) I have been drinking more.
Wrote a long blog today. TO sum it all up, I have no regrets on having this surgery. Nothing but good has come from it. I am 60 pounds lighter and I feel tons better. I am full of energy. I look forward to exercising. Miss it when I take my day off. Sleeping better. Having a more positive attitude all the time. Less stressed. Having a great time learning what I need to do to make this a LIFESTYLE change that I can live with!!!!

Yayyy Fran, and live is what we do. Congrats on the loss. Welcome to the rest of life. I too feel the difference when I do not get the exercise in. Let's continue to do this together. Loser's united for each other. Hugs
