WOW since my last Friday appointment I have lost another 3 pounds. I can't believe how fast its coming off. The extra exercise makes a big difference.
What a difference the Scale makes

I was in Dr McKeen's office yesterday and now I am down a total of 45 pounds. I can't believe it! Things are really starting to come together and I am feeling great. My husband and I are working on our communication skills and thats going well also. For the first time I walked into a store and bought a really cute pair of capri's and man that felt good. Things are just getting better as the weight comes off.
Maybe I do need help

I went to my normal Support meeting last night and I heard non stop about this site and how great it is. Its nice to see so many with a similar issue that I have and that is losing weight. I was not a heavy kid but became a heavy adult at 22 years old. With a Thyroid problem and no exercise in my routine I gained 132 pounds since leaving high school. My boyfriend in high school continued as a boyfriend for 12 years till we got married 10 years ago today. He made me feel good about myself by being fat with me most of those years. Now he is a thin 190 pounds and I am 5 months post op and down 43 pounds. Something I can say I have never done previously. I managed to get 30 pounds or so off on a varierty of diets but nothing seemed to work. This is the most I have ever lost. Its a great feeling! However the downsides are that my best friend, which was food is now no longer. My 22 year relationship with my husband is having a hard amount of testing right now as well. Its all so scarey and unfamiliar to me. I didn't realize loosing this weight was going to be so tough! But once the dust settles and things are calm I realize I wouldn't rethink or re-do this for anything. I am re-claiming my life and thats an awesome feeling.
