Anyone else set for 4/20 or there abouts?

Thank you so much! I'm finally feeling really good. Almost a month out and down 32 pounds. I'm afraid next month I might only be down ten, but trying to not think like that and focusing on getting stronger and healthier. I have to say, it is weird that months before my surgery I was seeing 'Any January surgeries out there' or "February sleevers?'. It felt my surgery would never come in April. And now, it's 'June sleevers?' or 'September surgeries?'. I'm sure it's gotta be a little bizarre for you being a year out and how fast time goes.

You will have ebbs and flows with the numbers showing on the scale. Remember a lot of times when the scale isn't budging you're losing inches. If you haven't already I highly suggest measuring yourself. It helped motivate me when I felt like I must be doing something wrong.

Time really does fly by quickly. I don't remember what it feels like completely to be as big as I was anymore. I hope next year u can look back and see a big difference too!

I've thought of that so much before my surgery. I knew I won't remember how I feel right now, or a month ago. In fact, a few weeks before my surgery I was sitting at a four way stop in my car and looked down at myself. I looked at how my stomach touched the steering wheel and tried hard to burn this image of how uncomfortable it felt at that moment sitting in that seat. Because I knew in one year I'll be at this same four way stop, in this same seat, with all this room between my flat (flatter) stomach and I won't remember how I used to feel a year ago. Does that make sense? I know, I've gone all weird on you.

No, that's not weird at all. I did the same thing. And still do the flip side of that today. When I get in the car I look down and notice how much space there is between my tummy and the steering wheel! I do it every time I drive! Haha!
