30 days post op: 30 lbs loss and feeling great!

Apr 29, 2011

It is officially a month out of surgery and I have posted my one month pictures and I even got my daughter to help me make a split screen before and after. I see a difference, a little here, a little there, and I feel different too! I feel so good, I am happy to get up in the morning and happy to do anything, even housecleaning is more fun! It is amazing how much more mobility you have after a 30 pound weight loss!

I watched the Royal Wedding this morning and was so inspired looking at her beautiful gown and all the other women who had lovely dresses. I haven't worn a dress in ages...I get really big thighs and calves with weight gain...so I'm ever so hopeful to rock a dress again, maybe when I get under 200 lbs. , and a cute summer dress too! I saw another member's blog where she was so excited to have cute sandals with an ankle strap! I can relate to that too! An ankle strap would not be even thinkable before...so many possibilities! I won't be doing any shopping yet, as I do have enough outfits to get down a couple more sizes, but watch out...maybe in the month of June!

Well I'm going on and on but I actually have good news, my husband and I are going out for dinner tonight, for the first time since the surgery and also it has been about 4 months since we last went to dinner just the two of us. I hope we have a lovely, romantic time and enjoy each other's company. I promised to myself I wouldn't bring up any hot topics that could ruin the mood and just focus on each other and having fun. I really feel we need this moment in time to have fun and set the tone for the future. The future looks bright!

Take care all,
Virginia
