New weightloss pictures!!! down 109 lbs.. I am currently down 109 lbs since surgery, 129 from high (This is a rough guess I had a year or so I never weighed but my 26/28s were not fitting anymore). At my preop consult my measurements were:
Chest: 55 in Now: 42 in
Waist: 54 in Now: 41 in
Hips: 59 in Now: 46 in
So thats 39 inches off of all of those areas.
Finally things are starting to get back to some kind of normal, at least the new normal for me.. I just read back at all my pre op ramblings and musings and it's just so funny. I was so excited to get my guts rearranged with no idea what was in store.
Am I glad I had my weight loss surgery? Most days, yes. Do I have regrets? Some days, mostly that I didn't prepare myself or allow myself to think about or believe that the complications that I've had could actually happen. However, now that I'm doing mostly better some days, I think that I'm happier than I was. I was definitely NOT prepared for the emotional issues and changes I would go through either. I do not see the weight loss at all and I'm terrified of gaining weight. Food isn't as enjoyable as it used to be. I'm obsessive with every bite I put in my mouth and it's just crazy. It's very much so a journey and a roller coaster.
I'm still the fat girl regardless and I can't make myself see other.
Anyways some of the good stuff thats happened is my Diabetes and GERD is gone. My PCOS symptoms are better for the most part, it seems. Of course we won't know if my body is doing what it's supposed to do until we start trying for a baby again. However that is not going to happen right now but eventually.
Well I think thats it. Thanks to everyone who has supported me during this time and been a source of encouragement when I needed it. For the swift kicks in the butt and everything else!!!
