Oh yeah!!! Merry christmas to me!!! And to everyone else out there in bandsville

[MADE IT 2 MY GOAL..OH YEAH 0]

Well, I just got news this morning my wonderful mother inlaw is sending me some money for Christmas since I have lost enough weight to change pants and shirt sizes. So, While doing laundry today, I decided to go through my pants draw so see what all I needed. Little did I know, I was going to be making a trip to goodwill today. I had about 10 pairs of pants in my draw. They ranged from sizes 22 to 28. I knew right off the 28s would be to big but wasn't sure about the 24s. So, I try them on and they were too big, but they were my comfy pants last winter. Then I saw some 22s in the VERY bottom. I went ahead and tried them on, thought, well they wont fit but I will be able to fit into them (hopefully) by the end of this winter. Over the thighs, no problem, over the hips, easy, around the stomach, just like I had butter on my belly, buttoning them, didn't have to suck my belly in one little bit. OH YEAH, THEY FIT. I am so excited and proud of myself.

So, anyone out there that is having problems not losing (what they consider enough). Don't worry, I started off slowly and now I am steady with my weight loss and have dropped a total of 2 pant sizes. It WILL come off, you just gotta give it time.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!!

My day started off miserable, but you brightened up my day. You made me smile. I am 4 months out on my band and have lost 36 lbs and went from 22 to 16 and fixing to go down another size. It is great, trying on those pants that you don't think will fit, and low and behold they DO. Incredible feeling.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you too and I hope you have a great new next slim year.
