My old bra that at my heaviest was too small on me. lol WHOA there.

I’m wearing this Betsey Johnson charm bracelet that my boyfriend gave me on Valentines day. ain’t it cute? It came in a sparkly pink box :)

When I first got it, it fit exactly at my wrist. Now, it can travel. 13 months ago this wouldn’t have fit past 3 fingers.

“You don’t need a fill” said the nurse at my surgeon’s office today, “I haven’t seen anybody with that amount of weight loss all month, YOU ARE MY WEIGHT LOSS HERO

“But I’m hungry…” I whined.

“Well, what are you doing to not think about food” she replied.

“I drink Crystal Light if I want something sweet. I try to stay away from the kitchen”

So, she gave in and gave me a 0.3cc fill. I now have 4.1 ccs. I saw the nurse that assisted me during my post op. She was a lovely LOVELY lady. She asked me how I was doing and I told her that I lost 111 pounds, and she said, “WOW OMG I’m so glad you did so well. Some people get the surgery, and they still don’t lose the weight”

THEN I went to the airport to pick up my dad. He was coming in from the motherland, and while I was waiting for him, he did not recognize me. He told my mom, “No la conozi porque esta muy seca”  which means I didn’t recognize her cause she’s so skinny. lol

Now, I’m drinking my protein shake cause I’m on liquid days for two, then mushies, and back to solids.

Corpus Trip!

via the scenic route - We went to visit one of my BFFs Christy in SA Saturday night and we stayed at the Hilton Resort FANCY SMANCY.

1st Picture - Michael and the triple meat sandwich I made him :) NOM NOM

2nd - Bill Miller’s BBQ I ate here about 20x a week while I was attending UTSA. I got stuck on a big steak fry. Shoulda known better than to order that. Silly Cindy. If I would have eaten that next weekend, I probably would have PB’ed. After 5 minutes it passed but whoa. No more steak fries, fo’real this time.

3rd - Double NSV: I saved this shirt from like a million years ago, and now it fits kinda loose. Also wearing shorts, GWAT? yes, BF picked this outfit out.

4th - Me and My Mikey at the Beach

5th - our Sand couch

6th - Sitting on our sand couch an looking at the view

7th - TRYING to look cute, but failing lol.

So, I HAD to buy a new tankini because I misplaced my old one :/ Did not reach 197, but I haven’t weighed in since Saturday. I’m a bit scared about my weigh in tomorrow to be honest. Hoping for the best. Picture in the morning.

I experienced this NSV two weeks ago at forever 21 while I was looking around with my boyfriend. The bracelets have NEVER fit my wrists. I got to wear regular watches a couple of months ago, but not skinny girl bracelets. Anyway, I tried one on without even thinking and I was like…heeeyyyyy wait that FITS!

And I finally bought some bracelets (and earrings) today from Charming Charlie :)

Jason Wu for Target. Ordered this shirt…isn’t it cute?
I love my lapband, my wonderful tool that has allowed me to lose weight, feel good, and most importantly buy cute clothes (jk buying cute clothes is just an added perk to regaining my health)

NSV!

I haven’t lost much weight this month…feels like none at all really, but i HAVE been going to the gym a lot. Before I would put this belt on on the last hole and it would be perfect, now as you can see, it doesn’t fit. ADDING IT  TO THE PILE!!! NSV :) It really motivated me to KEEP going to the gym

This feels good

I’m expecting a SPORTS BRA in the mail, but its taking forever. Running with a low impact bra SUCKKKKKKKKSSSS! Anyway, to the point. I had completely forgotten that I had ordered clothes for my birthday. All my shirts were Large, and all of them fit.

Feels good to wear a large when I use to wear a 4XL.
