The Day of surgery at the hospital. I knew it was official when I was sitting in the pre op room and saw my name on the board. I still could not believe that the day had finally come.
Day of surgery above
The camera battery died today before we could get a picture of my behind today. But I assure you that it is no smaller. Maelee keeps saying "Mom, I thought you had surgery to be skinny, but your butt is still fat."
This picture was taken while bowling with the family at my 5 week mark. I think this is first picture that has been taken of me in a long time that I did not hate. My face is still chubby, but I don't feel disgusted when I look at it. (that is Maelee's gang sign she is throwing up. Everytime we take a picture she says "$4 Yo!"
So I am 24lbs down and a whopping 76 more to go....urghhh!! at 1 to 2 lbs a week it will take close to another year and a half. I want it tomorrow. But when I look at it at month to month and think by the end of the summer I could be close to 50 lbs down I feel pretty good about that possibility. Little steps and little goals. Right now my goal is to buy a pair of these jeans I found. I am going to a concert with my friend Maranda June 26th and I am hoping to buy a pair by then for the concert. I don't even care if I only fit into them for a month or two or three, I just need to set these little goals for myself to keep myself going.

Yup, you can tell in your face and mid-section! You look great... keep up the good work. A year will fly by!
Yo! Hot Girl!!! You are delicious in every way! I have been noticing a difference every time I see you! I love yoU! Keep it up! I am here for yoU!
Friggin' Awesome, Dude! I am so jealous! Love it!
you are so amazing to me! Way to stick to it Channon. It'll seem hard during the process but in the end you'll be so grateful! You look awesome, but I always thought you looked good. (honest truth!)
the last time i saw you i thought you were starting to show signs of weight loss. i love the bowling alley pic :)
i always loose weight in my butt last! it'll happen don't worry :)
Yeah, I can tell too! Looking good! I'm still jealous! I just went back to weight watchers...blah, but I'm in so much pain lately I had to do something NOW! Keep up the good work! Your awesome!
I can totally tell Channon, I am so proud of you, you are awesome, just think, even though 1-2 pounds a week doesn't sound like a huge amount for yo-yo dieters like us, you are actually going to keep going down and not gain it back, so your yo-yo days are hoefully gone forever, when you think of it that way, 1-2 pounds is awesome when you realize you will probably NEVER see those same pounds again. I hope what I am saying makes sense, when I lose 1-2 pounds it is like oh, nice, but I know the second I eat something, they will be right back. Your situation is exciting because those 1-2 pounds will keep on coming off, keep up the great work, do you feel hungry?
