11 Weeks Post-Op

I have been so bad about posting lately with the upcoming deployment and the stress from recently moving. I do have good news though. I am only 6 lbs away from hitting my goal of losing 50lbs. Once I hit it I will be rewarding myself with a new haircut! I went to the doctor yesterday and had my wound check appointment. With all of the setbacks they finally think I'm in the homestretch. It was only a little over 2 cm deep yesterday. They expect I will be packing it for about one and a half to two more weeks. I still have not been exercising because I don't need to get an infection and pro-long the process further. I will begin as soon as I am healed. I am getting new work-out clothes with our tax return and I am ready to start being active. I want to hit more goals and get more rewards!! My rewards list is as follows:

50 Lbs - Haircut
60 Lbs - Mani / Pedi
70 Lbs - iPod Touch and Beats Headphones
75 Lbs - Coach Purse and Wallet
80 Lbs - New Shoes
90 Lbs - New Work-Out Clothes
100 Lbs - New Outfit
110 Lbs - New Watch
120 Lbs - New Sunglasses
125 Lbs - MAC Makeover
130 Lbs - 2 Concert Tickets
GOAL: 140 Lbs - Victoria Secret Shopping!

All of these goals will help to motivate me and help me prepare for Anthony's arrival back home. I hope that I can lose all of the weight and hit my goal within the year.
