Fill update and NSVs

Hello one and all! I hope everyone is having a great memorial day weekend and enjoying their sunday. I am having one of those days where nothing could bring me down. I am in such a good mood!!!

So Friday I went to my fill appointment. I weighed in at 212, not too shabby (I would have liked to be at 206 as that would have 2 lbs a week, but whatevs) I am now 12 lbs from 200 - I am so excited!! That leaves me with 12 lbs to lose this month to hit my personal goal of 85lbs by my bandiversary. I know that is a little steep, but I know that if I am diligent and I work hard I can lose 3 lbs a week. At my appointment I got a .25 cc fill, and I can definately feel er in there. So that makes me even more open minded to thinking this is a doable goal!

Some NSVs: Last night I went out! It was one of my besties' birthday, so we went down town had a few drinks and did some dancing. I hadn't seen a few of these girls in a few months and they told me how good I look and how I look like I've lost a lot of weight. And I as always humbly said well, yea, and went on. I dont really want my weightloss to be in the lime light, because I don't know what to do with it, I have learned though I will take in the complements and give myself aa pat on the back for them because i put in the work so I should reep the rewards! So last night we were dancing and I ended up dancing with this guy - and he was normal, a really good dancer and nice and fun!! It was great, I needed the ego boost, ohhh and as we were leaving, I heard him say to his friends, 'she's leaving, what should I do', so that was cool. I sound like such a 16 year old right now, but I never got to be young and hot so now I am experiencing it and yes, I am a little like a 16 yrs old. I also went to the grocery today, and I think I am notincing it now, men at the counters say hi to you and look at you in the eyes, that very politeness is something that I never got before. You know what else I love and have been getting alot lately, I will be walking on campus, at the store, just random places and girls will complement my clothes, now that feels awsome!! There is nothing more gratifying than a random girl givng you a complement, seeing as we can be pretty viscious, at least in my experience.  My final NSV is kind of wierd, so now that I am losing weight, my hip bones are beginning to stick out more and they do not have that lovely layer of protective fat they used to. Well at work there are a bunch of island walls and such and I am so clumbsy and have terible depth perception, so I run into them all the time. Well yesterday I did that and hit my hip bone, and it hurt so damn bad I kneeled over in pain for like 5 mins. It was awful, but I know it is because I no longer have all that fat covering my hip bones, so yea??? I know that one is a weird NSV, also another thing I notice at work is now that I am almost 75 lbs down, my feet do not hurt nearly as much as they used to I worlked all day yesterday, and worked Friday night, and I have running and excersixing and I went dancing and today my feet do not hurt! That is wonderful!! Thank you band!

Well. y'all have a marvelous weekend!

So um your blog just completely lifted my spirits, thank you soooo much!

I totally get your NSV's and why youre so happy about them, I miss human contact, even if it is only people looking you in the eye or just being a decent person towards me. Those are also things to look forward too!

Thank you for your kindness on my blog. I needed encouragement so bad, I tend to get too down on myself but as previously mentioned, you helped me feel a lot better and taught me how to look at things in a new light! TY TY TY TY TY

Just found your blog! I totally agree with everything you said in that blog. All those NSV's are all things I celebrated very recently, even the hip bone thing! :D I get it!!! And I think we were banded right around the same time, mine was June 19th and I'm 67 lbs down, down to 211! So we are real close! I need to catch up with what's been going on on your blog!
