Boy, I have not been on here in a long while...Time to come back and get some support
Today I have a follow up appointment with Dr. Owens and it will be interesting to see what their scale says. I stepped on mine before I got into the shower this morning and it says that I am 203.
I finally got my butt in gear and joined Curves about a month ago...then I took 3 weeks off, I don't know why I did not feel motivated...But now my husbands cousin signed up at the same location and we go everyday together. I think she is what I needed for motivation. I have noticed a big difference since working out regularly, I am tightening up everywhere and my inner thighs aren't so flabby anymore....They actually look nice.
My husband let me buy a new bathing suit for the summer and I must say I am mighty impressed. I bought a 2 piece bikini...bye bye tankini's from the maternity department at Target. I was actually able to go to Everything but Water and find a nice fitting one. I was shocked! And to top it off I wore it to our families house when they had a pool party last Sunday. Usually I will won't show many people what I look like in a bathing suit....So that is a big improvement.
I am just so grateful that I made the choice to get healthy and live a better life. I knew it would make me happy but I just did not know how much. I am thankful that I have a wonderful husband who cares for me and loves me and is excited for me.
Well I know this is long, but I got to get back to work!

My hospital experience was pretty good, although I was ready tp leave there by day 3! The day nurse that I had was wonderful but the night nurses were not so friendly with the exception of one. Overall it was a good hospital experience but I am glad to be home. I am very glad that there were no complications with my surgery and that I am on my way to healthy living.
I am so excited and glad that I choose to have WLS and cannot to progress to my goal weight. Thank you to everyone that sent me there support and well wishes, they were all heartfelt and appreciated!!
The Big Day!!
