One Year Anniversary - Down 58Kg

[SageTracey 608]

Today is my one year band anniversary and I am down 58kg (about 130lb). I have stalled in the last month but have a fill in two weeks so that will help.

this year I have dropped from a size 26 (tight) to a 14 on top, 16 on bottom. From dancing a couple of songs then telling my husband it was time to sit down, I am now staying on the dance floor all night.

from being embarrassed to be seen on my bicycle, I am now a 60+ km a day lycra cyclist and loving it.

from avoiding clothes shopping because nothing fit me, I am now the first person into the clothes store and I just keep on buying.

and from avoiding all photos, I am looking forward to my son's wedding next week where not only will I be proud to be in his family photos, but I will also be the focus of attention as MC of the reception.

from three BP tablets a day, I am down to just one blood pressure tablet which should go at my next Dr visit.

and best of all, I have discovered again just how wonderful my husband is. He is my biggest champion and has joined me in getting healthier. We exercise together and he has trimmed off three kg but also improved his cholesterol levels dramatically so we will both be around to enjoy raconteur for many years to come.

That is truly phenomenal weight loss!!! It took me years to lose less than that. You should be so very proud of yourself, but moreover, you must just be over the moon!

I've found that when I've explained to doctors how much weight I've lost (for me its abotu 45kgs) they are literally gobsmacked, even my lapband doctor. It just truly doesnt happen that often, its very rare for people to be able to lose that much weight and keep it off. I find it takes over whatever the reason for my appointment is, as whichever doctor I'm seeing wants to know all about it.

So you're one in a million!
