Starting to see progress...

Jan 13, 2011

I have lost about 67 pounds (starting the week before my surgery).  It has been slow and steady. I had a couple of weeks where the weight loss just simply stalled out.  I know this is absolutely normal but it was frustrating...no wonder every time I dieted I gave up!  My face has changed ALOT...my eyes arent so puffy and I can actually see them now! lol  Of course, I dont have the stunning blue but the light brown shows some now and I am pleased.  My double chins (or was it triple) is down to almost nothing...this, would you believe, seems to make it easier to breath while I sleep!  Now I actually sleep thru the nite most nites!  Such progress!  Arms and hands not going numb anymore either! Yayyy!

I am wearing a size 24 at present but I was in a size Women's SUPER PLUS size 32 to 34 (really a 34 cuz the 32's I just THOUGHT I fit into-NOT! lol).  I bought a pair of 22 Jeans that I managed to button, but still too tight, this morning...I figure I need one thing that is a goal so they are "it" right now! Soon...

Walking into walmart and buying something  to wear is such a hoot!  Yayyy me!  Soon I'll be in the REGULAR sizes!  Wont THAT be a scream?!  Even my nursing uniforms are ENORMOUS!  I had to spend the nite during the ice storm and had to get a pair of scrubs from the hospital for the next day.  I didnt used to fit in hospital scrubs cuz they only went up to 3x.  I felt paniced! I grabbed the 3x's they had and figured I'd be in trouble with nothing to wear in the morning.  Well I put them on.  OMG they not only fit they were too big!  Lol  guess I shudda got the 2Xs?  Way cool!
