I hit 185 today. The last time I weighed 185 was just before I got pregnant with my oldest daughter Nichole. I, of course felt fat the first time I weighed 185. I had just put on 15 pounds of romance fat while dating my first husband. I did not wear a swimsuit in public. I did not wear cap sleeves. I did not let my boyfriend (at the time) touch my embarrassingly poochy stomach (if only it were poochy now instead of floppy). I did not ride my bike. I did not cook.
I feel positively thin now...If only I knew it then and lived in the moment where I was...woulda, coulda, shoulda.
Living with a lapband after seeing goal is just as much work as getting there. This blog chronicles my journey to qualify for band surgery, my work to goal weight and now living with the band long term. Weight will always be an issue but there is a whole lot of living to be done.
