April 2012 Sleevers? Emotional changes/ Goals

[smilebig2012 4]

Just wanted to reach out to any almost one year anniversary!!!! I'm thrilled and hoping to get to my 100 lb loss by April. I'm cure toy at 66 lbs and finally getting my head back in the game from the holiday busy schedule/ vacation/ everyone getting sick at home.

Exercise exercise exercise is something I love doing now, and I feel so much better doing it. There isn't a moment when I'm working out that I think "I wasting my time". I have to admit I thought that prior to surgery. I would join expensive gyms , hire an expensive trainer get in a routine and after a month lose 5-10 Lbs to gain it back in a week- now I see the weight shedding and it motivates me.

I went shopping by myself (without my kids so I was not in a hurry) and found myself in the plus sizes when in reality I'm not there anymore. My mind was telling me check out the plus sizes when I'm wearing a Lrg or Med in women. At that moment I felt sad, remembering the person I used to be and the life I lived trapped in a body I shouldn't have been in. I feel more confident, loved, noticed by others and accepted then I ever felt. I don't know why? I'm still the same person just in smaller body.

This surgery saved me and don't regret it one bit but I'm still dealing with emotions, is anyone else dealing with the same?

I'm asking all to help motivate me if possible from now on to April to help keep me on track for the 100 lb lose and pray for my emotional growth. Changes aren't easy but who said you can't be happy with the changes that will make life better!
