1YEAR Bandanniversary TODAY 3/18

Corgi · March 18, 2006

I can't believe 1 year ago today I had my surgery, how time flies. Last night my family and I were looking at pictures we took before I left that morning for surgery and what a difference. I'm currently 50 lbs less then I was a year ago, I had expected more but I'm not going to beat myself up about it. Yesterday at work I got so many compliments and it made me feel so good. Sometimes when I look in the mirror I still see the old me, I guess that will take some time. I use to wear a size 26/28 currently a size 20. I'm eating so much healtier and taking Vitamins and I can't believe the energy I have!

I hope and pray this year I can lose another 65 pounds and then I will consider having a Tummy Tuck. This was the best gift I could every give myself.:clap2:

CONGRATULATIONS its amazing how fast the year goes isnt it, It was mine on the 8th March and all day I kept thinking of "this time last year"

I was grateful to go into hospital for the rest as I was so exhausted having to travel to belgium from Scotland and walk to the plane, climb the stairs etc lol

of course you shouldnt beat yourself up after losing FIFTY POUNDS !!!!!

fantastic, and incase you dont realise, go and load a suitcase up with 50lbs worth of books and try carrying it upstairs and round the house then you will realise your massive acheivement
