Today is 5 weeks since the surgery. I just got on the scale. I can't get used to it being less and less every time I get on.
Minus 38 lbs. and counting.
Amazing.

Last night I watched a show called "How I Lost 100 Pounds" on Discovery Health. There were three different stories. One girl touched me though....she was me. It was amazing to watch a complete stranger go through the same life as me. Chubby kid that ballooned in adulthood due to a food addiction. The only difference was she got the lap band rather than the bypass. And, after losing 103 lbs. she had a body tuck to remove the 4.6 lbs. of excess skin that was hanging off of her torso. I don't have the money for that sort of thing, so whatever is left hanging will just have to hang there. I have no plans to ever wear a bikini anyway!
Congrats!
