Happiest Moment

Good morning all !!! I hope everyone is doing good. I had a very positive experience (happy moment) today and it made me think of all the happy moments the last 5 months has brought to me.

None of my pants fit... so I have purchased belts. Today, I went to the second ring loop on my belt (when I bought the belt it did not fit). YEAH! Happy Moment.

anyone else want to share?

My surgery was july 11 (just over 5 weeks ago). My bmi has gone from 30 to 24.9, in other words I've gone from obese to overweight to normal!! Eeek, normal!!

It's incredible to feel so much better about my appearance and so proud of my hard work on this journey!! I love having the energy and the ability to workout! While I exercise or even just go about my day, I'm sometimes struck with awe with what my body can do now and the lack of aches and pains and fatigue!! It seems to want to be pushed harder and harder!

In a word, I feel FREE!!

I bought new clothes last year, thought I was done loosing weight. Now I can put them on and take them off without unbuttoning them. I had lost another fifteen pounds.

I am a new person! Had surgery 5 months and am down 65lbs and 35lbs away from my goal weight. I am happier, seeing my friends and family more, confidence has increased and i am happy! The best decision i ever made. Every 10lbs i lose i drop down a size. I go to the gym, i have a new relationship with food and i dont want to consume unhealthy food again. Wish i had done this 10 years ago but better late than never!

I'm 4 weeks out and I find myself crossing my legs a lot, and it's easy! Plus I reached my first benchmark/milestone that I set. As of today I weigh 225 pounds; haven;t been this weight since 2008. Wahoo!

My happiest moment was going camping a couple of weeks ago and not having to worry which chair that I was sitting in by the camp fire. I bought my own a while back that could handle a heavier capacity and always stressed about only sitting in that one. Also, I have always loved pictures, but panicked sometimes when one would be taken. Now, I worry a lot less. This entire experience has made me happy!!

Forgot this one too... realizing that my current weight is less than my weight on my drivers license (which was a lie to begin with!)

I never changed my weight on my drivers licence the whole time I was obese. No one ever said anything. I changed it last time. Now it's wrong again. I'm thinner now.
