OMG!!! Where has the time gone? Today I am 28 weeks post op. It really flew by. Sitting here in my room all happy and healthy. Sometimes when people call me tiny I think...who are they talking about? Then I realize I am tiny. I haven't been tiny in forever yet here I am....tiny. I look thin. I know I am still technically 3 pounds from being out of the "overweight" BMI but I am calling BS on that one. I don't look one bit overweight. I have to double take almost every time that I catch my reflection. The bathroom at work has a full length mirror near the paper towels. As I dry my hands I am always inspecting myself. Nope....not overweight. Not one bit. I look freaking FABULOUS and I am owning that!!!
Gah....I am having another friend from HS come into town on Friday. It was a last minute trip because she is big into cross fit and her brother is a judge for some big cross fit competition here in town. So we are going to meet up and also with another friend of ours from HS who also lives in town. I have not seen my friend who is coming in since 2013 when I went to visit her in Orlando. So excited to see her. We have known each other since we were 12. (Trust me...that was a long time ago! I'll be 44 in September.) So it is going to be a fantastic weekend.
We also have plans with 2 other couples to do an Escape Room on Saturday night. It is our first time (for everyone in the group) and we are pretty excited to be trying it out. I have heard so many good things. My son has done it several times since he has been in California. And my BIL and SIL have done it a few times with their group of friends. Hopefully we can "escape" so we will have bragging rights!
I have been at 126 for about 8 days now I think. I am ok with that. Not really worried about it coming off because I know it will. If I have learned nothing else during this process I have definitely learned to trust my sleeve and to trust my intuition, listen to my body, and relax and it will happen. I think in 6 1/2 months since having my sleeve surgery I have not done bad at all with working my sleeve and living life as a sleeved person.
So do I have any new goals to set? Yup. Going to try to tone up as much as possible with strength training. My booty is looking flat. Kind of reminds me of the Sex in the City episode where Samantha is in a relationship with an old man. She goes on about how "old men kiss the same, feel the same in the dark....until they get up and walk across the room and you see that saggy old man ass." LOL. Catching a glimpse of my ass I recognized it as soon as I saw it....only I am tan and a hell of a lot younger than he was.
Have a great day everyone!!! Keep on sleevin' on!!! Still no regrets and don't think I will ever have any. Loving my sleeved life.
