new years day 2011

so here i am, almost a year out, and down 90 lbs. what a year this has been!!! cannot believe all the accomplishments i have made this year. i never really thought when i went in that i would be this far. i am pretty excited with the way things have turned out after the surgery. not only am i losing weight, but i am totally embracing exercise as a way of life now.

i am still stuck on my plateau, but i know its only temporary, and i will move past this. i have about 42 more lbs to go to get to my goal. i was going to wait until i got to my goal to reveal my starting weight, and current weight, but.... here goes!!!!

i was 272 at my heaviest, that is what i weighed in the new years eve picture from last year. i had to do a 2 week fast before my surgery, so they wheeled me in at 260 that morning. i am now down to 182. i would like to weigh about 140, that is the weight i was before i got pregnant with andrew. i may not look healthy there, i may go lower, i dont know. i have to wait and see where i am at, and how i feel. i am not going to obsess over the numbers anymore. i want to get to a healthy bmi. i went into my surgery as morbidly obese, i am right now in the overweight range. major improvement there!!!!! i am at a 29, and i went in as a 45!

even with all the improvements, i still see where i need to go. but for the first time, i think ever, i can actually see myself getting there!
