I purchased a blouse last week at Nordstrom without trying it on, just looked at it on the rack and purchased. I went back to get it in another color yesterday because when I wore it yesterday I loved it. I automatically picked the large because I assumed that was the size I had on. I asked the sales person to double check the tag of the top I was wearing, It was a medium! I usually buy medium tops now but sometimes I forget and grab larges. The sales person said "You have to remember you are little now!" That made me feel so good. When she said that, she had no idea how large I was when I started. When people that didn't know me when I was huge comment that I am small, it really helps it sink in with me that I am actually a small person now.

Update: Surgery changed last week to the By~Pass. Dr. & I decided this would be a better option for me. Nurse called my insurance company & it was approved right over the phone. I'm soOOoooo exited!!!

I've been going to Planet Fitness 6 days a week for 3 months now. I'm not sure if this place is amazing or if I'm just amazing in this place. So thankful for VSG and getting in the proper mind set, I'm 100lbs down and running for a consecutive hour. I never thought this life was possible.

Just about 4 months post-op and within 7 pounds of my goal. This morning I ran my fastest 2 miles at 12:20 average pace. I run faster when my dh runs with me. I haven't decided if this is a good thing or not..lol.. I do enjoy the company I've come a long way in these 4 short months and it has been better than I imagined it would be. I love that I enjoy running and I am eating healthier then I ever have in my life. I feel hope for an active long life now where before I imagined myself dealing with the complications of having type 2 diabetes as I aged. Life is such a blessing and I am enjoying each new day!!

Yesterday was my day! After 10 months and 14 days, I can now officially say I am 100 pounds down. Forty more to go before I consider plastics.
