Proof is in the Pictures

Hello my little love muffins. I am still lost but at least trying to be happy! I went and bought a new bikini yesterday and realized in my self destructive/soul searching haze, I have neglected to post 140 pound down pictures! SILLY ME!


So here they are, for your viewing pleasure. I am weighing in around 187, maybe a smidge less. I am wearing a size 14 and feeling pretty good.






Makes you wanna salute something doesnt it? hhahahhah

  9. I just found your blog last week and have been reading it nonstop from the beginning. You are such an inspiration. I'm still jumping through insurance hoops but hope to be banded by early July. You're my new hero. Reading about your experiences have silenced any doubts I had that this is the right thing to do. Thanks for being so willing to tell it all. BTW, you look fantastic!

  59. Amy, I am reading your blog from both ends now - Currently in the middle of October 2009 -I don't know if you want any advice from me since I am so new to your blog - but you might reread your blogs of August 11, august 18th, and Sept 18th(Dress up NIght) - What has changed in your relationship that has changed your feelings this much?

    ReplyDelete
  60. just a p.s. - the worst part about reading from the beginning forward is that so many of the vlogs are no longer available and I miss getting to see your awesome personality in action - please promise me when I get caught up you will make a vlog just for me.
    Also I worry because I am having so much fun reading that when I finally do catch up I will die from anticiaption waiting for the next post -aaaahhh

    ReplyDelete
  61. holy catfish!!! girlfriend, you are hawt!!!

    ReplyDelete
  62. I am one day post op, in lots of pain and very bloated, and I have to tell you - this is the best possible pain killer ever!! You look so AMAZING! I can tell you not only "lost weight" but you really worked your butt off exercise wise. Abs do not lie! You should be a Lap Band poster girl!

    ReplyDelete
  63. Great work Amy! I'm wearing a 14 now too, but my tummy looks nothin like that, I guess I really do need to start exercising huh? Super cute bikini too!

    ReplyDelete
  64. You look fanFREAKINGtabulous!

    I am so jealous, I am 25 pounds lighter than you but look nowhere near as good. Life's not fair :).

    Been thinking about you!

    ReplyDelete
  65. Damn, girl! I am having my band on Tuesday, so I'm really new at this. I hope I look half as good as you do! You are my inspiration!

    ReplyDelete
  66. Hey Amy, I just caught up with you after a couple months. I am sorry to hear about your life change troubles. Just remember: Be true to yourself. As far as these rocking pics go: I AM PRINTING THEM AND PUTTING THEM IN MY AGENDA FOR DAILY INSPIRATION! I will be looking at your Bikini Butt every day! xoxo Linda from Detroit!

    ReplyDelete
  67. Ok, I need to know what kind of ceremonial or sacrifical dance you did for the Tummy Gods....WOW. I pray that my stomach comes even sort of close to looking like that after I lose the weight.
    You look amazing. Despite everything that you are going through right now you must be SO FRICKEN proud of yourself. *APPLAUSE*

    XOXO,
    Amy

    ReplyDelete
  68. Wow, you look amazing in that bikini. I wish I looked good in a bikini. My bikini days are over unless I get that tummy tuck i'd like. Anyway, I read your blog about what's going on with you and I'm so sorry to hear. Hope you figure it out soon and feel better.
