Hi Jackie! Thanks for checking in. I'm doing really well thanks. I haven't weighed myself for a little while so I'm not sure where i'm at exactly there but i'll try and check it over the next couple of days and update it. Besides the weight loss everything is going okay. How are you doing?
Not to bad thanks ive put myself on milk diet due to going out of control and just eating everthing in site day 4 today hasnt been to bad really was hungry first day then its been ok really not sure what ill be like by 28 days but needs must
I've had a bit of a mind blowing day today... I had my first ever driving lesson! I always wanted to drive and never had the confidence to try because i always feared i wouldn't fit behind the steering wheel. Today i did it didn't go faster than 20mph so basically just rolled the whole time. But i still did it!! Haha. I booked my second lesson for the same time next week
That's brilliant Victoria, 20mph on your first lesson is pretty good going really. Driving will give you so much more independence, the world's your oyster now lol xx

Aw no! I know the eating everything in site feeling. I think most people go through that at some stage before they have surgery. I say it all the time but i could have never done the milk diet so i think anyone that does is very strong willed. Did you try a healthy eating plan before you started the milk diet? You still have lots of time to lose weight at a healthy, steady rate i would think if you have a few more months left before surgery

Thanks Sandra! That's what I'm hoping for. I don't like having to rely on other people. I feel like as soon as i can drive my life will really start i can just go here, there and everywhere

Aw Jackie i'm sorry to hear about your mom. I can't imagine how anyone handles that loss especially when you're close like that and in such a short amount of time. It must have been such a hard time for all of your family.
I think life can always be hard but i try to stay positive and be thankful for what i have. For a long time it kept me hiding away but i've tried to change that in the hopes of making myself a better, happier more useful person! haha
I've lost 7st 10lb now since surgery and have had 4 driving lessons now. I want things to move faster with those. I wish i could just skip to the end! haha but being able to have them at all is definitely a NSV for me. I've been having a few of those lately My aunt got married on Saturday... a wedding that i actually went to when i never would have gone 2 years ago but not just that... I WORE A DRESS!! I think its the first time i wore a dress in my whole adult life. The last time i remember wearing one was when i was about 10.
I also was able to buy some clothes from boohoo which i nearly cried with happiness over because boohoo is one of the websites i used to look at and dream that one day i would be able to buy clothes from there. My next target is primark! lol
Here is a picture of me in my dress... I know i still have a long way to go but i think i'm still making progress and that makes me really happy. Its a split mirror which is why the brown line is in the middle lol i'll need to get a better mirror now i don't mind looking in it as much lol
Thanks Emma! Yeah i did lose more before surgery. Total now with the recent weight loss i think i've lost 12st 12lb so far. It's been a big change for me for the better!!
Thanks Loz! congrats on getting your date. I bet you can't wait! It's such an exciting change. You won't regret it. Do you have a diary?
