Feeling fit and fabulous! Surgery July 2013. Target 9 months later. Now maintaining

Just a couple of quick photos of me today (the second one in on the following post as it won't let me attach two here for some reason) ... New boobs in normal bra now. So happy that a lifetime of exercise has paid off to sculpt my body (no control underwear worn in these photos), and my true shape has been revealed now I have lost the fat that covered it all up.

If I am being self-critical I did not have the best hair day (not helped by the frizzzzzzz of 4 inch long new hair growth which is the bane of my life, as was the loosing it post bypass! Never happy, tee hee!), and my loose arm skin in not great but, hey! All in all, rather pleased where I have ended up ...

I hesitate to even think about targets, and end of journey, etc. i don't think that is possible - and just view this as another stage but a rather good one! Yesterday is history, tomorrow a mystery, and today is a gift, that is why it is called the present.

Love and light to you all xxx

Truly gorgeous you are a stunning beauty to behold that's for sure and a true inspiration Lilac.x
 
Thanks everyone. We are all beautiful, big or small, saggy skin and all. No matter what we are left with, physically we are so much healthier even if at times we struggle with the head versus visual. xxx
 
So true lilac... We are all gorgeous no matter where we are in this journey
I said to my OH yesterday there are times I don't feel any different than I did at 27and half stone and then I will accidently feel my bones and take myself by surprise. Sitting in Costa today hubby sat me down while he got the latte and I glanced over the cafe noticing that there was more space at the back. Thinking oh I never knew that Costa stretched that far back I felt really stupid on realising that it actually didn't and what I was looking at was a mirror with me clearly reflecting back. I just hadn't recognised me!
 
The benefit of a life time of exercise is revealed. My current routine: For over a year now I have done a one hour Zumba class a week, plus two one hour Aquafit classes. This was me after last night's Zumba ... Done in!

Looking well fit there Lilac :D and look at those proud boobies... So jealous! X
 
I think they are quite 'thrusting' if you get my drift ... Well, that's how I see them, anyway. Mr Floyd tells me they will migrate slightly south which I think will be a more natural look for my age. Not unhappy at all, BTW! I have never had pert boobs, not even as a teenager so I am making the most of it now! :happy036:
 
So it's been a normal christmas this year. Last year I was five months post surgery and still transiting back to normal foods and it was hard. This year I can eat virtually everything without consequences but I really did not want to ... How strange is that. I picked a few bits but had no desire to even contemplate any regret in not being able to consume my body weight in seasonal fayre. For this I give great thanks ... Who'd have thought it. Bloody love my bypass and the consequent disconnection of the hunger-driving hormones.

Happy Christmas and a skinny new year to you, you bunch of loosers! xxxx
 
Merry Christmas sexy lady :D
Had a blow out Christmas day ...compared to everyone else it was a more a fart lost on a windy day but to me it was sheer heaven. Apart from the avoiding the things that undoubtedly would have had me sugar dumping I was able to eat most stuff .. Yeah I suffered later but once a year I think I can handle that :). It was nice not to, as you put it lilac "eat my weight in festive food" a little taster sufficed any desire. We only bought what was required and laid out only what was required. If it ran out then that was that. Nobody complained & I think we all felt better for it to be honest. Here's to a skinny 2015 when it comes Lilac xxxx
