OMG today is 8 months! I didn't have time to take updated photos--they will have to wait until this weekend. I am still down the same weight....actually today I'm bloated so I'm down 72lbs with water weight. That's my fault for eating processed lunch meat. That stuff makes my hands, legs and feet swell up, no matter how much water I drink! I expect to see a loss on the scale, soon, because I am shrinking. My closet is pathetic--I own NO work pants and almost NO work shoes. I am going to have to get rid of all of my boots--that makes me sad, especially for my gorgeous, distressed Dan Post cowboy boots that my mom bought me for my 30th birthday. I am going to try wearing those with 3 pairs of socks to see if my foot will stay in them. If not, I'm bringing them to work for a friend to try on.
So.... 8 months ago today I went in for surgery. At this time 8 months ago, I was sick of being in the hospital, making David walk with me so that I could get out of there! Being in the same hospital room that my uncle almost died in didn't help, either. Not the best memories in that room. And a VERY uncomfortable bed. Anyway, I still have NO regrets. I wouldn't change a thing. On second thought, maybe I would have taken a whole month off work--that might have been the only change. And that's because my job is so emotionally draining--I didn't realize that it would affect me physically. Otherwise, I am one happy lady.
Once again, I have to give God thanks for helping me through this, for leading me, for guiding me, for directing my path. He is faithful and true!
I wish you all the best evening. I will be sure to post photos this weekend. I hope you can see the difference!
Peace, Love and Joy,
Rachel
