Feeling small today 💁🏽😏

[slim-within-blog]

Today was my official first day of term. This is my 3rd time of starting 1st year 🙈 The last two academic years I was unable to complete the year due to mobility issues caused by being obese. I'm so glad I had WLS because now I'll be able to complete not only first year but the whole course - and I'll finally be able to truly enjoy my uni experience. So excited for this academic year and all it has to offer.

NSV Alert 📢💥 So on my way to uni this morning I sat on the back row of seats, and as the bus started getting packed I was hoping no one would want to sit next to me because I didn't want to feel squashed or to make anyone else feel squashed. Usually when the bus is packed people would avoid sitting next to me, but not today ☺😜 The whole back row was full and to my surprise I didn't feel squashed at all 🙌🏽 I love the feeling of not being squashed or squashing someone else on public transport but I am going to miss having a free seat next to me 😒 lool

The frustrations of going from 327lbs to 285lbs

You’re still obese just less obese 

You say you lost over 40 lbs and “oh really??” is the response 

Your weight right now exceeds most people’s highest weights by far 

Your clothes fit better but it goes unnoticed or unnoted

How do you know if a man values you

You wouldn’t even be questioning it

These are not the best pictures but when I was out I realised how small (in comparison) I looked. Before surgery I wasn't a fan of full length or bathroom selfies but I'm really starting to like the way I look in them now.

Earlier I had Burger King for the first time since surgery, I ordered a burger which I couldn't finish (which I expected) but the whole experience of eating it wasn't as enjoyable as I imagined it would be 🤢😷👎🏾

I'm not meant to be weighing myself until the end of September but I couldn't help myself 🙈🙈 It was well worth it because I've now lost over 100lbs #100lbsgone. To be precise I've lost 48.4kg/106.7lbs/7st 8lbs since surgery 🙌🏾😏🎊🎉

Late post but my 3 month post op comparison pictures. At the time of the July pictures I was down 41kg/90.4lbs - I wanted to be at 100lbs lost but 90 is still amazing

Lately I've been focusing way too much on what the scale is saying. I've literally been weighing myself everyday 🙈😪🤷🏽‍ So I've decided I won't be weighing myself until I return to uni at the end of September/beginning of October which will also coincide with my 6 month surgiversary
