Oh my how time flies, but so much has happened where do I begin? It has been 7 months since my surgery and I now weigh 179. I have now lost 101lbs since my journey began and I still am amazed at how far I have come. I am getting use to being in this new body…it is still weird at time to see myself in the mirror because I look so different. But the thing is I still feel the same….like the same old fat girl I use to be. I loved myself then and I love myself now. Ron has been great, he has not treated me any different then when I was 100lbs heavier…he has really just seen me for who I was. I never realized how much that mattered to me until now. In the back of my mind I wondered if he would be sweeter to me now that I am thinner? Would he want sex more? Would he become jealous of other guys? I wondered a lot because I have heard horror stories and my physiologist warned me as well. But Ron…he has be great through this whole process.
I am a very lucky girl…because I found someone who truly loves me for all that I am and all that I am not. Our engagement party is just around the corner and I am excited but there are 2 clouds that are blocking my sun shine. Recently my sister whom was supposed to be my maid of honor became mad at me and now has pulled out of my wedding an is no longer speaking to me. Also I was laid off from work. Yeah 2 huge things are raining on my parade but! I have remained positive through all this because I have had so much good happen there was bound to be some bad coming my way right? Well for more details including a day in the life of a gastric bypass patient and other topic please feel free to look at my YouTube page.
Maybe with my being laid off I will have more time to post on here!
