2 & 1/2 Months PO-

OMG This is the best decision I've ever made. I've noticed how much happier I am on a daily basis just because I feel more confident in myself. For anyone who is just starting out the beginning is really honestly not that much fun, but being *technically* not that far in yet, it's definitely worth the money, time, and tears! :D So I know I haven't updated pictures in a while, so here they are! :) How is everyone, btw? Hmmmm let's see... so I'm still wearing my garmet (I've kind of gotten attached to it) and I feel that it really helps with my swelling. I have been going to the gym religiously every morning 7 days a week and I am absolutely obessed! My weight loss was doing really well for a very long time there (I lost 30 pounds so far), but now it's slowly has stopped though the inches are coming off... so I'm thinking it's all muscle gain which is fine with me. Otherwise everything has been great! Happy Healing! :D

7 weeks 3 days PO

So things have gotten a lot better! I joined a gym almost 2 weeks ago and it's been amazing!!! I've been doing a lot of different classes and it's been a lot of fun. :) It hurts a little when I jump too much during my workouts or if I try to do sit ups, but otherwise I'm pain free. To date I have lost 27 pounds PO!!! :) My swelling has gone down a lot and I'm feeling 100 times better. I attached some updated pictures, but I think I look better in person then on these pictures, but oh well. You can kinda see the start of my six pack in the pictures but once again they look better in person. Happy Healing Everyone!!!

Wow! U look awesome! I'm so jealous. I don't know how you are working out, I don't feel good enough to do so. I still feel like my stomach is super tight and even though I walk upright, I still can't lay flat when I sleep. I still put a pillow under my knees to sleep. It's just a tight feeling and can't imagine excercing while still feeling this way. Tonight I actually have some pain above my belly button and have no idea what it is. Anyway. I'm so glad you are feeling and looking fabulous! How have you lost 27 pounds? I lost 10 pounds but it was all the first 2 weeks of surgery. Maybe when I finally hit the gym I can lose some too. Keep up the good work!

Hello! Thank you! I'm sorry your're not feeling good :/ Yeah I was very tight for a very long time, but I just started very slowly one day and it got better everday and now I'm generally pain free as long as I don't jump a lot. But I started with yoga and that really streched me out and then did low impact and now I can do whatever. :) I lost that weight because I do weight watchers and I really watch my carbs plus I exercise at least 6 days a week. I hope you feel better and thank you for the compliments! :D

P.S.S. Did I mention?! I'm doing a 25 mile bike race on Saturday night/Sunday morning!!!! I'm super excited. For those of you wondering, it's called the L.A.T.E. Ride or the Midnight Ride in Chicago. It's going to be so much fun! :D
