March 7th...

So here it is, 7-months since my surgery, I feel pretty good, cant complain really. I have a few issues that urke me right now but working on them. My abdomen "site" is really bothering me. It bulges out and by that I mean fatty-wise. If it weren't for my midsection, I would really look like have lost weight. I am going to make an appointment to meet with a plastic surgeon. I'm not sure if they can do anything about my midsection because it really is not a medical necessity but at least I can say that I tried to have something done/fixed plus not sure if my insurance would cover it. AT LEAST I TRIED!

Ive been visiting the gym 4 days a week. I feel pretty good. I fight with myself every morning and when I get out of work about going to the gym but I always make myself go. Its hard to get into the swing of things but after my work out I feel pretty good, a sense of accomplishment and more determination to loose weight. I have a lot of people stopping me in the hospital halls telling me that they seen my video and that I didn't even look "that fat" to even have the surgery. I always tell them that I tried to hide it well!

Okay, so the drum roll please..........my weight today is 155. You will recall in earlier posts that my surgeon wants me to be at 150. You will also recall that my personal goal is to loose the whole 100 pounds (125). So I have a lot to go :( I have attached my 7-month picture for you as well as the 2nd part of the video for viewing. I'm wearing a size Large top still and pant size is 12. The pants are snug yet seem to have alot hanging by the crotch area. I guess my damn midsection plays a part in my deformed body. :( I refuse to try jeans again until I get to wear I wanna be (125 pounds) and  when I reach that goal and try on a pair of jeans, something tells me that my midsection will deter me from wearing them. :(
