So for those, say either 4 months out or about 50 lbs. down – I have a suggestion: think of the things you are going to do today or did this morning that you would not have been able to do, or do without discomfort, etc. – and share them!!!!

Let’s give our brave new pre and post sleeve brethren some NSV’s to look forward to! <3

1- wake up early before the alarm feeling well rested and no cpap machine.

2- packing lunch and Snacks for work (10hr days)

3- go to gym during lunch break and enjoy getting in a 30-45 workout in.

4- not worrying about next meal.

There is so much more that I can't even think of, I enjoy being active everyday, my only regret is not during this sooner.

would not have been able to do, or do without discomfort, etc.

these are a few thing i can think of

not today, but...........

recently flew to GA to visit grand-kids

not only did i not have to wear the "ever popular" seat belt extender

i easily sat between 2 other people, no prob, with room to spare

there was so much room on each side of me :)

they must be making the seats wider :D

almost fell backwards in the seat at the movies

i wasn't expecting the seat to have "grown" :)

for the first time in "umteen" years i bought/ wore a beautiful one piece bathing suit :)

i am now "putting myself" out there in public and volunteering

i "bravely" walked down the street and met/greeedt/introduced myself to a new neighbor :)

went to a neighorhood/block party/barbecue :)

no longer have to deal with taking diabetes meds/insulin - CPAP - high blood pressure meds

my BIG, most important unexpected surprise

i now take half dosage of my epilepsy meds!!! :)

look at a full length mirror in Kohl's and not want to cry/die!!!

not feeling ashamed of myself in grocery store et al

thinking people looking at me thinking "oh my gosh look at her" :angry:

now anyone looks at me and says "hmmmm she is cute as a button!!" :lol:

I am much more confident!!

i weigh 130 lbs - down from my DOS weight of 235 lbs!!!

i am now one very "proudgrammy!!"

happy i am healthier

happy to be alive :)

Forgot to add that since I lost a lot of weight that I'm now getting involved in more active social events, joined an adult kickball league, played for the first time last night and it was a blast also plan on joining the men's basketball league even though I suck at basketball.

I've been flirting. :) Me! I never used to do that. I suck at it, but I'm having fun.

Woke up...put on shorts, no shirt, ear buds - ran 2 miles on treadmill.

My energy level in the mornings is amazing. Love it.
