[sleeveorbust 11]

There is always a light at the end of the tunnel!!! I just wanted to post a picture for everyone, I am almost 9 months out on July 1 and I have lost a total of 66lbs and counting... I would like to lose another 23lbs but its coming slower now that I have gotten closer to goal... I am thoroughly enjoying every second of my life and I feel freer than I ever have!! I work out at least 3 times a week mostly running but also doing light weights to tone up arms and legs... Im enjoying this whole process and I know that i have not always been perfect but I do know the proper behaviours to use this tool responsibly!!

here I am before...

and here I am ... wearing my scars proudly in a neon bikini!!! bring it on world!!!!!!

I hope that everyone has a chance to reflect back on their decision to be sleeved and believe it to be a blessing! I certainly do believe that i have been blessed to have the sleeve and I always hope I cherish it and use this tool to it's full potential... I'd be lying if I didnt say I wasnt scared to go back to those dark days... because I definitely am, so Im trying my best to stay the straight and narrow!!!
