6 pounds from 100 pounds gone!

I know it has been awhile since I posted, life is busy with me as usual. Taking care of an older husband, work, and trying to be more active. I got on the scale the other morning and realized I was down 94 pounds and thought WOW this is great. Then it dawned on me that I am only 6 pounds from 100 pound mark. That just blew my mind. I have to keep telling myself this is real and I am not dreaming. I can see the difference in pictures but my mind still sees me at my highest weight. I am so pleased with this journey that I have chosen to take.

I ran into my old weight watchers leader and she did not even recognize me which made me feel good. When I spoke to her is when she knew it was me. I thought that was kinda neat.

Thanks for reading and following in my journey!

A little late in posting 3 month pictures!

 Okay I have been playing with the few pictures I have taken. This is the day of surgery and right at 3 month post op. I see the difference but my little pea brain won't let me comprehend it.

90 pounds down!

Well it has been a little over 3 months since my surgery and I am feeling so much better and I am 90 pounds lighter. This journey has been awesome and each day is a new adventure.

I have had asthma and it was a majorly exercise induced, and what I mean is that if I would exercise I would start coughing until I was vomiting. I have been hiking and walking and not even using my inhaler, yes I do get out of breath but nothing like before. I am hoping to go hiking again this weekend. I feel my energy level is getting better. 

Okay, I am rambling but my pants are so baggy and my underwear is even baggier so I finally bought some new underwear. To my amazement I bought 3 sizes smaller and a pair shorts 4 sizes smaller than what I had been wearing. I don't know when my mind will catch up with my body, because when I go look at the clothes I go to the size I have been used to buying knowing that they are way too big. I know this is part of the rapid weight loss.

Gone Hiking!

Well today I hiked a little over 3 miles. The hike was not on flat ground let me tell you, it was up and down rocky, sandy terrain. It was great but I got extremely tired.
