3 Months Out

Time is certainly flying by. I can still remember when I woke up in the hospital after surgery. >_<

Anyways, on to the important stuff. I'm down 61 lbs. I can fit into my old jeans again and am starting to feel more attractive. I do notice, however, that my body looks more lumpy when I'm naked. Can anyone relate? I almost feel like I liked my body better before.

I weighed in this morning at 286. I'm still trying to decide what I want my "goal" weight at. I'm 5'11 so I was originally thinking about 170, but I've been thinking about giving myself a more realistic goal of 180-190. Any opinions?

I bought myself a pill organizer a few weeks ago to store my weekly supply, but it's not big enough for everything that I'm taking. I'm doing really good with all of it except for the iron. It won't fit and I always forget. :/

I've hit my 3 month mark and so far so good with the hair loss. I haven't had any yet...(knock on wood). I'm hoping that I still won't see any, but I'm not holding my breath. I will be posting a progress picture next week. For some reason I got on the odd weeks so I will posting them a month apart and next week is it.

 

       *Edited to add that my BMI went from 48.4 to 39.9!!

Wow 3 months already?!! Time sure is flying by!!

As for a lumpy body.. totally relate. It's strange looking - it's like I can see all my pores on my legs and arms now. And I can totally understand the liking your body before.. it was firm fat before LOL!

As for goal weight - I'm 5'10, my nut says around 170-180 puts me at average. I'd be happy at 200. :)

You may need another pill organizer or a bigger one - get that iron in!

And best of luck with the hair! Mine started falling out around that time I think.. and it just now slowed down. Are you taking Biotin?
