finally updating again.
I want to get back into the habit of updating regularly, as i'd like to read through my journey when it's all over so that it will inspire me to stay on track. So although it's been about 4 weeks since I posted my tracker, i've updated it and here it is :
Lack of updates, but BIG NEWS : First 100 GONE!
Man, it's been almost a month since I last updated, so sorry. Started out with a bad week, kinda got discouraged and haven't updated since. However, since then, i've had a couple of good weeks, and some new and exciting moments on this journey.
1) I surprised my wife with a trip to Hollywood Studios & Disney World a couple of weeks ago. And that was the FIRST TIME in at least 10 years that I was able to ride an airplane WITHOUT a seatbelt extender. In fact, i had room to spare with the belt. It felt awesome. Unbelievable still.
2) I was comfortable on every single ride/rollercoster/attraction. I fit into each of the seats w/out a problem. I have avoided theme parks for years because of my weight because I didn't want to be uncomfortable or embarassed while trying to fit into a ride.
3) AS OF THIS MORNING - - - 43 PRE-OP + 57 POST OP = 100 POUNDS GONE FOREVER! I still cannot wrap my brain around 100 pounds gone. At one point in my life I thought I'd always be 350+ pounds. But to be in the 250's is amazing to me. I still have a long way to go, but i'm so far from where I was, and I love it!!!!!
