MoreganK 164 Posted February 24, 2013 Its been 8 months since my surgery (June 27th). I have been struggling this whole time to see my weight loss, and I've struggled with some pretty obnoxious plateaus that has me battling my mental demons that would cave and fall on old habits of defeat. I've started feeling really remotivated. I looked around at before and after pictures of folks here. I looked around on Pinterest as various weight loss blogs, and fitness sites, and woke myself back up. I got a wrangle in on my eating habits again, and cleaned that up, and am back to my hard core workouts after a 3 week hiatus. I was feeling pretty good this morning. I still can't weigh myself at home, because I've yet to buy a scale. I think I will this week. So, instead of weighing myself, I took a progress picture. And for the first time placed it side by side with my starting photo. I was so floored. I got tears in my eyes. I had no idea. For the first time, I SAW MY WEIGHT LOSS. I'm flying again, and so remotivated to remember who I am and who I am proud to be. I am proud to be healthy. I am proud to love to workout! I love myself, and I am worth it to keep fighting this fight. I made the best decision of my life when I deceided to get sleeved. I am no longer pre-diabetic. I am no longer on bloodpressure medication. I am starting to return regular blood tests on my PCOS. And these pictures this morning.... how can you go back now after coming this far??? My before taken the morning of surgery. My current "during" taken this morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
