Great job!

Thanks. It feels great to finally be able to do all the things that I wanted to do myself but couldn't. I've always enjoyed being the "handyman" around the house.

Another NSV is finally getting my wedding ring replaced. It kept sliding off my finger. I went down from US size 12 to Size 9 and still it is a bit loose. I got a "temporary" tungsten ring and planning to get a new silver / platinum one for our 10 years anniversary next year 😀

my strangest non-scale victory so far is.. i can feel my bones! xD it feels weird but like i feel my shoulders and hip and knees when i’m laying down cuz all the fat padding i was used to is going away. :)

I feel my tailbone more then ever. Sitting, lying down... very annoying. I'm thinking when I get my mommy makeover in a a few months I'll have them add padding if that's even possible.

SAME. I keep shocking myself feeling bones where I can't remember feeling them before -- yesterday I was adjusting my bra before my workout and I was floored to feel my ribs under my bust! Plus my collarbone, jaw, hips... they're all still well-padded but they're making themselves known!

I'm in mourning. Had to throw away my favorite pair of leggings this morning. They got retired to the "only wear around the house and not to the gym" pile a few months ago when they threatened to fall down during weightlifting. (I'm okay with everyone in the class see me fall on my @$$, not them seeing my @$$.)

But today I put them on and the waistband wasn't even touching me and I was like... even if I just walk slowly downstairs, my family is gonna get a show. So in the trash they went. 😭

I can't even just buy them in a new size; the company stopped making them years ago.

I put on my first pair of jeans 7 weeks post op to go to Home Depot. They were loose! A few steps into the store and my pants were falling off. A few days later did laundry. Pulled out some leggings. I have knee knows, and mtmy thighs don't touch.

I went straight to the XL section & ended up leaving with Mediums & Large size clothes. I will never get used to not seeing an X on my tags!

IKWYM. I hold up the 2XL & 3XL clothes now and they look so big to me. I have an inner battle that has me thinking I'm still in 2x+clothes when I'm in 16 and L/xl. When I started I was "outgrowing" 26-28. I can't believe I've lost 10 sizes in 6 months. I can go in the"normal" section and get the cute clothes. I'm in awe.

I am finally under my drivers license weight, I can't wait for renewal so I can update my weight.

I just got a new one in 2021 so I have a ways to wait.... but the looks will be fun when someone has to look at my ID. haha

Yes. Now, the weight I put on dating apps is true. 😂

That is awesome! I can't wait to get my license renewed this summer. It says 350 on it and I was almost 50 pounds more than that when I got it last time. I have also never had my real weight on my driver's license and I can't wait to put it on there in August!
