Today, at 15.5 weeks since the start of the two-week pre-surgery prep, I have lost 50% of what I want to lose. Yeah, halfway there! Also, my "classification" just moved from "Class II Obese" to "Class I Obese." All of the clothes that I bought at the start of the school year are getting too big on me. I just made another big purchase at Salvation Army. I got almost 20 things for around $75. I bought all size 18, maybe a couple 16's, and 1x. Some of the things are too small, but I also noticed that when you are smaller, things that are a little snug are more forgiving. I would have never worn anything classified as "snug" at my starting weight. Now I can, and it doesn't look that bad.
None of my 8th grade students that had me last year have said anything to me, though a few have looked me up and down. I think they don't want to be rude by asking, or some of them (especially boys) just don't really notice, or maybe care about it, and that's totally okay with me. I noticed with my 7th graders, I am getting more compliments on clothes, earrings, hair, etc, than I used to.
That's about it for now...
