So did my first shopping trip and to my surprise am a size 12 holy crap.  And hit the sales rack and was able to get what I wanted not what fit and only paid like 40.00 for 10 things.  What a wonderful feeling going home and putting them away and not back in the bag because they are to small.  Oh and the big thing had to have my gallbladder out, that sucked but no other set backs.

For the first time I was in a wedding and was like all the other bridesmaids.  I fit into my dress, I didn't sweat like a hog.  I look ed and felt beautiful.  I didn't feel like the best man was like uugghh I have to walk with her.  It was the best wedding I have ever been in.  And to top it off some of the people I have not seen in years and they were like holy moly Megan you look great.  And I knew I did.

I hade a garage sale this weekend and shed all my bigger clothes.  I made 200.00 almost.  It was insane.  At the same time I felt like OMG what if I need these clothes again.  I work in a professional setting and have to dress nice.  It has taken me years to build up a great big girl wardrobe and now it is all gone.  The only thing left in my closet is SPACE.  I have to go get more clothes but then again these will have to be sold also.  But at the same time what a great feeling.

 I am at 199 and feeling great.  I had to stare at the scale today to have the number sink in. I had thoughts like is this it.  I would be okay with 50 pounds gone forever.  I do have goals but at this point I am going to revile at this one for a while.

So I found out the hard way.  I am know sensitive to sugar and milk.  I had soup the other day and it had 10 grams of sugar and I dumped.  I also get quesy on yogurt.  No more milk also for me.  I am happy about the sugar part though because that was one of my downfalls.  So in away Thank you weight loss surgery.

I am 21 days out and 25 pounds lighter.  I have only dumped 2 times and that was because I ate to fast.  I was feeling great but them I over did it this weekend and I think I pulled some muscles around my incision area.  I am having a hard time with my protien and I also wonder why no one told me how painful the first day is.  Adirondack Medical Center is the best.  I felt so cared for and I love them for that.

Been only 2 days on the liquid diet and I am starving or telling my self that I am.  I heard my stomach growl for the first time is years that was really wierd.  I hope I can do it.

I have 11 days till surgery 2 days till I start the liquid diet and 5 days till my pre-op appt.  So so close.  I am going through the stage were everything is my last meal and I know it is only a short road blocked to eating healthly.  I still haven't smoked and know pounding the vitamins.  I feel like a pez dispenser but I guess I should get used to it.  My fiance wants to try the liquid diet with me and the girls at work so I know I have a great support system.

I have a date.  It is April 14th.  It has been exactly a year since my first informational meeting.  I am so excited although it is 10 weeks away.  I am in my friends wedding and unsure what to do about the dress that I have to purchase.  Her wedding is July 25th.  I wonder how much I will loose in 3 months...

I have a approval number so I am so excited.  What a great Christmas present for me.  My New Year's resolution was to loose weight and I guess it is going to come true this time.  With a little help from surgery of course.  Go back up to Saranac Lake on January 22 so I will keep everyone posted.
