....and knowing that I've done something good for me:tt1:! I've said this before and I'm gonna say it again: if I don't lose another pound, the surgery was still worth it! I'm no longer pre-diabetic, have elevated blood pressure or edema, I've learned how to eat properly and my self-esteem is awsome! Like anyone else I have my downs too (which is why I started blogging), but the good things happen much more often now!!:w00t: Everyday is a challenge I'm willing to take head on! Someone at work the other day said to me, "Lemme look at you. I don't know what it is about you?! You're just so damn cute! You just shine!":laugh: Made my day! I love knowing that my positive well being is showing that much! And thank you all too, for being out there and giving advice when needed! Blogging really helped to get me out of my slump of sadness.:biggrin: I highly recommend it:wink2: (cheap therapy).

Have a wonderful weekend!

Wonderful attitude and post, Tina! I agree -- "there is spring to my step". I just feel better about myself, even if the scale doesn't move or something else goes down. At the end of the day I can always be thankful for all that has transpired. We are seriously so lucky :-).

Tina I agree too. Since the surgery I am off diabetes meds, reflux meds, cholesterol meds, and my BP is now so low we are going to be cutting my meds for that back and hopefully will be off them completely soon.

I have more energy and I think I carry myself more proudly since the weight loss. I got my hair done a few weeks ago. Nothing drastic, it was my usual do. The VP of the company walked up to me last week and she had been meaning to tell me that my hair is absolutely cute that she loves it. Now, it's the same haircut/style I always get but I guess with the weight loss it looks different. I was so proud when she said that. I know I look people in the eye more when I say Hello whereas before I tended to look down I assume so no one would notice me. Things have definitely changed for the better.
