    Default Since my surgery...

    -I can eat just about anything. This doesn't make me happy to say. I have to measure and be super careful
    -I figured out myfitnesspal woohoo
    -I can fit in a plane seat
    -I never have bowel movements. When I do, I'm all happy and excited like it's Christmas. Me and my 74 year old father get that...no one else does.
    -I have no libido
    -I can walk without wheezing
    -I can get up off the floor without assitance
    -my clothes aren't so much smaller but fit different
    -I regret getting the max implants now that I am realizing that weight loss is a reality
    -My kids are excited. they don't want a fat momma
    -I sleep way better
    -I got my eyeliner tattoo'd on a week after surgery and it's crooked and it looks awful and I cried. I demanded she fix it. A year ago, I'd have just cried and not said anything
    -I had my hair colored at the same place and it's the color of baby dairrhea. Before I'd just shrug it off. Now I care more
    -My ankles are no longer swollen.
    -My blood sugar is level and my moods somehow have levelled out after a few spikes and dips
    -I worked out today and made it a mile in 30 mins. Not the 12 minute mile I ran 10 years ago but a start
    -I started lifting 5 lb hand weights
    -I feel pretty
    -My husband won't make it to the other side if he doesn't change his ways
    -People are commenting on my weight loss
    -I found this board and a lot of cool ppl with great hearts
    -When I dont' feel like a stuffed sausage and swollen and bloated and miserable, I enjoy my life more and am nicer to be around, even for myself

    Sounds like you are coming into your own, good for you. Isn't it amazing what 30 days and 30 pounds can do for our psyche?
