12 weeks on the losers bench!

Well...here I am 12 weeks exactly from the day I had surgery and I am -64 lbs!!  Seems so strange that I am saying that but it's true!!  I can finally start to see a difference and I feel better and exercise has become so much easier!  Today while waiting for a friend...she told me that when she pulled up she thought it was my car but didn't think it was me because..get this "my face was so skinny" lol!!  I think she was serious.. either way it totally made my day and cracked me up!  All the clothes that were just "fitting better" are finally getting "too big" and I am faced with the decision to either buy some new cheap clothes or have someone try and alter my old ones : /!  Honestly I may do a little a both!  I just know I don't want to be out a lot of money on clothes that may not fit for very long!
So this picture is from a few days ago ~~~ please ignore the big..white Bra...that is so classy!!
So my next goal is lose 100 lbs which may take forever but it seems so much more attainable with it only being 37 lbs away!!  Yes..I said that with a smile on my face!!  
What am I eating these days? ...well my friends..lots..lots and lots of protein!  I eat a lot of fish, chicken, eggs and cottage cheese!  Still only eating a few ounces at a time but overall I usually feel very satisfied!  Im eating about 3 to 6 small meals a day!  Every day is different depending on how hungry I get and how well I packed for myself for the day!  Having a traveling work job is not super duper ideal for WLS patients!  But we make do!  :)
What am I doing to workout?...well my friends...usually about 30 to 40 minutes on the elliptical or treadmill.  I have also been taking a Aerobics type class at sidelines and if I haven't exercised and don't want to get back out..i usually do an exercise video like the biggest loser or walk away the pounds or ride the stationery  bike (yes I know you are jealous we have a stationery bike)!  I have also been using some weights at sidelines and at home...still super worried about my saggy saggy skin!  
What am I drinking?....Water..Water..Water...Water...Also I like to use Crystal light flavors...currently peach tea is my fav!  I have also been drinking tea...which is strange because I don't drink tea!  


Guess what...my hubby is doing great too and he has lost about 15lbs!  I am super proud of him and he hasn't drank a soft drink since the day that I had surgery!  He is the best and has been very supportive and complimentary!
