It's been 1 year!!

So it has been exactly 1 year since my surgery. I went to the doctor this morning to have my final weigh-in. I have lost 81 lbs!!! I just can't believe it, and neither could the nurse who weighed me in today. I just can't picture myself 81 lbs heavier than I am now. I still look in the mirror and see a fat girl. I know my weight loss is significant, but I still have so much work ahead of me. I guess I never realized how big I actual was, I thought I was hot then, and I wonder why I couldn't get a date! I have lost about 20 more pounds than the doctor anticipated in the first year. I have put my whole life into this weight loss thing. It is all I think about, what to eat, how much to eat, when should I workout, how much should I workout. It has not been easy, and there has been many days I would rather sit on the couch and do nothing. I still want to loose at least 40 more pounds, and to be at my dream weight, 70 more pounds. I am 30 years old, and I never want to be morbidly obese again. I want to be a healthy person, but on the selfish side, I want some guy to notice me, and I want some girl to be jealous of me. I know, I know...but a girl can dream!

Wow! Congrats on yo9ur accomplishment. Again, I had no idea and I'm excited that your efforts are paying off. In the midst of the excitement and hard work just remember that you are a rock star no matter what!!! Some times I think we could all weight 95 lbs and still feel like the fat girl so just be careful and know that you are AMAZING now, yesterday and tomorrow all numbers aside ;)
