Hello my lovelies. I hope you are all doing well. I so need to do a vlog to show you how I am doing. But for now let me tell you how I am feeling and what has happened since the last time we spoke.
Weight Loss I have lost in total 52lbs. That is amazing!! I am shocked. I've never lost that much in my life. Ive gone down almost 3 dress sizes. I'm starting to feel positive and confident. It's the small things, like I'm starting not to feel like the jolly green giant. When I say that when I was 52lbs heavier I would always feel awkward and in the way. I'm glad to say I am feeling less like that.
Last Sunday I went to my cousins and had a delish Sunday roast. I ate slowly and carefully as I am paranoid about being sick or dumping. It went down nicely and stayed down. I was worried about eating in front of everyone, but they were super supportive and ignored me. we did have a joke, my cousin saying "there ya go you greedy bitch"! Charming.
I've been cooking every day and trying new recipes, which hopefully I will share with you once I get myself organised. I'm a little all over the place at the moment.
I've joined the gym - Yeah I know right!! But I also know that if I don't exercise my wobbly bits will wobble even more. I still have 11 stone to lose so I can start toning the bits underneath.
I'm really liking myself at the moment. I like the way, my mind is thinking and it's so happy. I'm far from cured as WLS is not a cure but I am aware of food. It's a different feeling from dieting and failing. I am not dieting anymore which is really weird. I am eating healthy and trying to make things from scratch so I can control fat intake. I still don't fancy anything sweet and chocolaty. As I typed that I literally turned up my nose hahahahhaa.
Overall The decision to have WLS was the best thing. 6 weeks ago I was getting ready to go in and now look at me all done and dusted and on my everlasting journey.
