Default 1 year ago today (now with picture)

1 year ago today was my surgery. Thank you all for your support in the beginning and now. I know I am not around much, but my life is so full I am barely online anymore.

As of today I am 128lbs down and 7lbs from my goal. I am engaged to a wonderful man who understands all that goes with wls. He himself has lost 100lbs in the last year too. We get married Dec 11th and I can't wait.

and.. okay it was a thrill to fit in to a single digit wedding gown! )

*** disclaimer.. I had one hour of sleep before this picture was taken***
Really I was joyous! This is what my dress looks like only it will be in ivory. It should be here any day now.

Thank you everyone for the kind words.. sorry haven't been around, but who knew planning a small wedding in Vegas would be so time consuming?

Anyway.. I am disgusted with myself right now. I have been stress eating big time. I EVEN KNOW I am doing it and can't seem to stop myself. I have gained 4lbs, which in the big picture isn't much, but I am afraid of the starting point. UGHHH

It started with the bridal company I ordered my dress from sending me the WRONG dress in the WRONG size.. and not being able to replace before my wedding, then going shopping for a new dress on short notice with my new mother in law who graciously payed for it, because our budget is spent on this wedding and I was hysterical.
Then work.. step kids acting out, the ex wife causing all kinds of drama... OY VEY.
Anyway I am trying to get back on track and in 32 days I get married!! I need to get a grip, because damn I am happy but I don't want to be fat and happy again.

I bet you still look great! Way to go!

Right now, I would, NO IFS, ANDS OR BUTS, make the time for a massage or something. Give yourself a break. Weddings are stressful no matter what, and even an hour of quiet time getting a massage will help you decompress.
