Loss to date: 25.5 pounds.
I haven't weighed this weight in 4 years. I've contemplated the lap band surgery for a long time but I was told, 4 years ago that I was not a candidate for it because of my scar tissue. So I bought that story and believed it until another Doctor suggested that I ask for a second opinion on that. I'm sure glad I took his advice.
I hate that I waited so long for this but I also know that everything happens at the right time for the right reasons. I just wish the right time would have been before diabetes took such a toll on my health and my family had to suffer through so many bouts with cellulitis and my constant decline in energy and good health. No one should have to suffer like that.
The scale continues to amaze me and every morning when I weigh, I'm sure the scale is broken or unbalanced in some way. I hop off and on and adjust my feet but I can't deny the numbers. The weight cannot be coming off this fast. Every single day I see a loss of at least 3/4 of a pound or more. CRAZY, right?
I've been experimenting with some soup here and there and so far, everything has gone down just fine. I had a little wonton and egg drop soup last night and on Saturday I had some japanese broth. Today I had lunch out (for the first time in a LONG time), just asked the folks at the restaurant to strain the french onion broth, it was perfect.
I really feel like I'm healing well and have all my energy back. Actually, I don't think I've felt this good in a long time, Agnes be damned.

i get what you mean about not believing the scales. I am in denial that I lost around 10 kilos on the opti-fast stage. I guess its to do with our self belief?
