Nothing but pride...

I'm very proud of myself. I try not to talk about it too much but there are things I still deal with from having had the surgery. Eating is still the biggest one but all I do is take it a day at a time...



I've been very grateful for the support from my loved ones. I have noticed the lack of support from some people & it just makes me look at them in a different light. I'm not basing what I do in my life on other people's opinions but it hurts when the ones you thought would be the happiest for you, barely even acknowledge your accomplishments. 

It's all good though. ; )

I feel better about MYSELF in a health sense. I'm so glad I was able to drop that excess weight I've been carrying for the past few years. I'm back down to what I was back in h.s. & still losing. But now I'm trying to tone up & get more fit. I don't want to disappear. I just want to be healthy. (lol) Struggling a little with the mental though. When you drop a lot of weight, your body does show it & that's why it's so important to exercise because toning is huge when you lose a lot of weight. I get bummed out at times when I look at my naked body but I know that I just have to work hard at achieving the look I want my body to have.

It's weird though because although I KNOW I'm losing weight (I see the number on the scale decreasing) & I can it in the mirror....it doesn't really register at times. Like, my husband will go to pick me up, playing around & I automatically grab him tight because I'm so afraid he'll drop me cause I'm heavy. Or when I go shopping for clothes, I look at them (no lie) at least 5 times because I'm unsure it'll fit. So I'll try it on & it winds up being a little too big & I'm in disbelief. 

BUT....I've come a long way already & I'm doing alright, if I may say so myself. I'll continue to do what I have to do in order to achieve my goals & in the meantime...stay healthy my friends... ; )
