Before After

Size 22/20 to 11 in less than 5 months!!

Yes i'm still alive and kicking!!!.... things are still going awesome!! slow and steady wins the race and that's the God's honest truth! although i have tipped the scale in the last month i am wearing a size 11 which is now getting baggy in the butt and a size medium shirt!!!  my once XL-2XL work scrubs have been traded in for medium/smalls!! my co-workers protested my wearing the bigger ones in fear i'd lose my pants one day...lol but my work week is only 4 days and that's what i have 4 days worth of scrubs. i didn't want to buy any more than i have too until i am done for sure.
 
i had a doctors visit on decemeber 21 where he told me that i was doing an awesome job. i expressed my concern w/ not dropping big numbers still and he explained to me i'm already past my 50% loss mark and that things will slow from here and my body is going to see more changes. he said this was a benefit b/c of the skin issue and looking right now i'm not going to have too much of a concern.
 
guys this surgery has changed my life!! i haven't been blogging b/c i have been "LIVING" really honest to goodness living. i feel awesome and i feel like i look awesome and i carry that every where i go inside and out!! not having to worry about what the scale said and how i'm gonna lose it has really freed up my life. i knew i was holding back w/ pounds of excuses why not but never really knew the actual prison i built for myself until now. i just thank God for this blessing and i pray that everyone of you find the success and regain their life back to feel as free and as awesome as i do.
