I Joined The Gym

So I joined the gym, and of course going to the gym will require clothes acceptable to wear in public that won't fall off so I had to get some new work out clothes.

I'm not at the comparison proper photo stage yet - but Tanya, I took these just for you! (Ok well I really took them for me and EVERYONE, but you especially!!).

I'll post a side by side of my 4month post op where I am @ 284lbs (-40.5lbs total) along with a picture taken today just over 10 months post op where I am @ 256lbs (-68.5lbs) - wow does that mean I only lost like 28 lbs in 6 months... Huh, that kinda sucks ... Oh well.

By the way, the new pants and shirt are both "1x" from the plus size store here! (Look, I actually have distinguishable boobs! haha).

Ang said...: Aww, thanks Tan! And yes, it does sometimes take the pictures for me to really realize that there is a difference, it does take the head some time to catch up that's for sure.; October 31, 2008 at 8:31 AM
Anonymous said...: WHOA girl, look at you!!! Thats amazing!! I wish I would have taken pictures because sometimes you need them to put things into perspective.; October 31, 2008 at 9:54 AM
Ang said...: Thanks Sarah, and it is never too late to start taking pictures - even if you are able to find an older one of yourself that you can use for comparison to a "current" one.; October 31, 2008 at 10:14 AM

You are looking good girl!!! Keep up the good work.

I think I have found my "sweet spot." I got a fill on Monday and I think by far this has been the best I've felt. I am literally not hungry so I am not over eating. I love good restriction!!!; November 19, 2008 at 6:24 AM
