I haven't really blogged because like I said before, how many times can you come in and say how awesome life is?
I feel fantastic, I am being told I look fantastic. People I haven't seen for a while aren't recognising me. I always read and heard stories of people saying friends they hadn't seen in a while walk straight past them in the street. I never believed it could be possible. I mean, after all, your still you right. Well it seems not.. I am gettinga good laugh at some things that happen. People I haven't seen for a while not recognising me at all. Asking others "Who's that girl?" hahaha
I am down to 72.2kg now. Think that makes it about 47kg I have lost. The weight loss has really slowed down now though. I haven't lost anything for a while. But I feel fantastic, I am not worried at all. If anymore comes off them so be it.
I have noticed I can eat a little more now. No where near the amount I used to eat, but I can finish a sandwich now or a little more of my dinner etc. This means I have to now keep a better eye on what I eat. I don't want to end up back where I was. Not that I could, but even putting on any weight would freak me out!
I caught up with an old work collegue last week. She hadn't seen me for a very long time. She asked others there who I was, when they told her and told her how much weight I had lost she replied "wow, you must have been huge" lol Yep, I was. BUT I still look at photos of me back then and can't believe it was me. I just didn't feel that big.
My god daughter (god love her) saw a photo of my on my identification badge for work and said "you look like you are in a fat booth" PMSL.
My Surgeon told me "You look so good your making me hungry" not sure exactly what it meant but I am sure it was a compliment. lol. My dietician was very happy with me also. I am doing everything right.
I am all ready for Christmas, I can't wait. I remember Christmas Day last year I had lost exactly 20kg. I thought I looked awesome then! Wow I can't believe how far I have come!
CHRISTMAS 2010 99kg (20kg loss)
CHRISTMAS 2011 72kg
I touched earlier on the year on some exciting news I got. It will now be happening sometime in the near year. I am so very excited. My story is being printed in my favourite magazine. I can't wait to share my story with others and hopefully inspire someone else to make the decision to win the battle against the bulge. I will definately let you k now when it happens.
Again I want to just say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported me. Sending me messages, commenting on my photos and blogs. It means so much to me. Thank you so much.
