Thought For Today... One Pound

WOW!!! I have lost 75lbs in the last 5 months with my VSG (and VSG pre-op diet)... That is awesome! I have lost 101lbs since I started my WLS journey and I only have another 110lbs to lose for my personal goal. When I started this journey I had over 200lbs to lose to reach a healthy weight. I never ever in a million years thought it was possible. I'm not looking at the next 100lbs I'm just looking at the next POUND... just one single teeny tiny little POUND eventually each little, tiny, seemingly insignificant will equal my goal weight.

Have you ever started walking, saw your destination up the road a piece and thought to yourself.. "That is just sooo far! I don't know if I can/should/want to walk there." I'm sure you have at one point... Have you ever tried the trick of looking at the floor when you walk and watching your steps? No?? Try it!!

Next time you have to walk some where, walk there while looking at the steps you take. Walk for 30 seconds this way, I promise you when you look up. You will be surprised at how far you have come :-)

Just a pound at a time!

Happy Surgiversary To ME!

WOW!!!! Just Sayin.... I never really noticed the difference until I put these two pics side by side. This pic isn't even the thinnest, just the most recent full length pic I have, about a month old. I will try to take another updated picture sometime Today. 

3 months post sleeve... In 3 months I have lost 64lbs! that is double what I lost in 2.5 years with the lapband! The surgiversary gods must not have favored me this morning because my scale still says 300.2. Maybe one day I will shake that .2 plus some and make it into TWODERVILLE! Then again, my brother got on the scale yesterday and said it's broken because it told him he lost 30lbs in two weeks. So I will have an official accurate weight tomorrow when I see my surgeon :-)

In 2 years and 10 months pot my first WLS I am down a total of 91lbs!! Century Card, HERE I COME!!!

Let Review Week Begin!!

This week all my blog posts will be reviews about recent products I have tried and absolutely love! I intend for my reviews to be honest giving both the pro's and cons (if any) of the product. I will make sure to explain to you the benefits of the items for our daily life and provide you with links and coupons if I have em!

I can't wait to share these reviews with you!
