Happy Weigh in Wednesday :)

How in the world did that happen?!?
2 pound loss since last week
79.2 pound loss overall!!!
I was just sure I was going to gain weight after plenty of birthday cake, ice cream, and alcohol last weekend. I love a surprise loss!!
 

Maybe I danced all the junk food calories off!  Coincidentally, thought I'd mention that I AGAIN made it through the entire night in my high heels on my birthday, and that makes me extremely happy.  I love that my feet don't scream from all the excess weight!

Also, last night I had a second date with a guy, we will call him Mr. Banker.  The first date was just drinks and last night was a movie.  I had told him I'd lost quite a bit of weight on our first date, and last night he mentioned that I looked slimmer than I had on our first date (which due to bad timing, was two weeks ago).  Later, I said something about living off of yogurt right now, and as soon as I'd said it I wished I hadn't.  I slipped.  So he asked why and was pretty persistent in his questioning so I just let the wall come down and said.... "well, I wouldn't normally tell someone I've only known for two weeks, but the last guy I dated had a problem with it, so I might as well tell you now so you can make your decision sooner rather than later.  I had weight loss surgery."  You know his response?  "Why would anyone have a problem with that?"

AMEN!

This guy might be alright.

    I am really looking forward to high heels when I get to my goal weight. I wouldn't last 30 minutes in them now. Good job on the 2 lb loss.

    Great job on the loss! I want to start wearing heels, but I feel weird, because I am so tall already.

      It's okay, I'm 5'9 and don't mind. Another blogger used the term "Glamazon" and I'm going to own that!

    I have long since given up on wearing heels, and after reading your comments in your posts about how it's so much easier now, I have to admit that's one of the things I'm looking forward to most!!!

    Good for him for passing the "you're not a superficial dick, are you?" test! :-D Let us know how that goes

WLS Bullying

Have any of you noticed how much bullying exists among us in the WLS community?  I'm not necessarily referring to those of us in blogland--in fact, I've never felt bullied or anything other than the most support here in my little blog world.  But in other parts of the WLS community I've experienced a lot of "my surgery is better than yours" comments and a lot of size comparison.  It's something that I first experienced when I tried a local WLS meetup.  I was the only person with a lapband at the group and it was then that I decided I would never go back. Now that I'm revised, I still disagree with it.  I would NEVER put someone down because they made a different decision than me.  Even with all my trouble with the band, I would never tell someone that they were making the wrong choice.  Your body, your choice. So, what's sparked this topic of discussion, you might wonder? Well, last month I went on a trip to meet several VSG sisters from instagra...

Burger or salad?

Image
I've been craving a burger. Not just any burger. A CHAR GRILL burger. Char Grill is a local NC burger joint that used to only be in Raleigh, but now there are several other locations in Cary and Chapel Hill.  The one in Chapel Hill is my own personal hell , because it is SOOOO close to my work.  I drive by and smell the lovely scent of grilling....EVERY...SINGLE...DAY. So today I finally went and ordered a Jr. Cheeseburger, no bun. This is what I got:   A cheeseburger?  Or a salad? Anyway, I was slightly amused by how much lettuce is "on" my burger. Coincidentally, I know my taste buds have changed...because this was not as delicious as I imagined it would be.
