Very proud of myself!

I had my lap band on 7/9, and despite some VERY major set backs (trip to ER for incisional hematoma that caused me to have blood pouring out of my belly button....to another surgery for Port rotation and needing to have it repositioned....to 34 days of packing a wound.....I have FINALLY broken the 40lb mark. 42lbs to be exact! One would think with that amount of weight loss I would notice a big difference in how my clothes fit...but I honestly don't. That's okay though...my back doesn't hurt, my feet don't hurt and I am not out of breath walking up a flight of stairs. I am FINALLY starting to see the good in this. Now...if only I could quit having set backs! LOL :biggrin:
