I hit the 90 pound weight loss marker on Saturday (two days ago)...and I'm realizing that there is no way I could strap on 90 pounds of weights and carry that around for even one minute. HOW DID I DO THAT????
No wonder my knees and feet hurt so bad there towards the end.
I purged more clothes this last weekend. The exciting part of that was that I got to bring down clothes from the attic I had optimistically saved, hoping I would one day again get into them. That would not have happened without my surgery though, I am 100% positive of that.
Sometimes I feel like a cheater, especially when I see other overweight people struggling with the urges, guilt and pain associated with carrying extra weight. My heart goes out to everyone who has ever struggled with their weight, and I will forever send positive energies their way in hopes that they too will find a solution that works for them. I have luckily found mine.
I have to give a big shout out to my girlfriend, Michelle, for being one of my biggest fans and supporters during this whole process. It means so much to know that I have my friends and family rooting for me!
Love you all!
Lisa
