7 MONTHS

I am officially able to shop all stores. It has been so long since I have been able to do this, it's very exciting. Everything else is going well, I am continuing to lose weight and fear that I will stop very soon. If I never lost another pound, I would be very happy with my total weight loss of 128lbs.

Another WOW moment...I went to see Mamma Mia with my dad last sunday and sat so confortably in the seat.

Science of Metabolism???

Who knew that there was a doctor that studied the Science of Metabolism?? Anyway, I saw a new doctor on Monday to will follow me now, she was great. She was thrilled with my weight loss and encouraged me to continue what I am doing. She set a goal for me to lose 60lbs before my 1 year anniversary. I know that I can do that in 6 months. She asked a very interesting question to me. Her question was, what are the 5 things you miss most about being overweight?? I didn't even think about the question, I said NOTHING. She smiled and said good answer.

I just hung up with my Cousin Lisa and I told her that when I look in the mirror I don't even see the same person. My entire body frame has changed. I had dinner with my mom tonight and she said to me as I was leaving "Dawn, your boobs are finally where they are supposed to be". It's so weird, I can't even explain it. Hope you are all doing great!!

The Pool

I went to the pool today with my sister and the girls and did great! I felt very confortable there, I wore my suit there with my cover up on and had a great time and actually went swimming.

I have a doctors appointment monday with a new doctor. She specializes in postoperative care of the bariatric patient and diet and exercise education. Everyone that sees her loves her, I will keep you posted.

Happy 4th of July to all. Have a good week.
