Six Months - Measurements and Photos

It is September!  6 months since the beginning of my weight loss journey.  
5 and a half months since having gastric sleeve surgery.

My weight this morning was 96.9 kg - so total loss to date is 35.4 kg.

My measurements are as follows:
My photos for this month.  
Please excuse me!  
Was a bit rushed this morning so I haven't done my hair yet in them and the photos are not the best.

All in all I have been struggling this month.  I have been really quite depressed and feeling completely over it all.  Couldn't be bothered much with anything and this lack of caring has really shown by my lack of results.  I look at my body and just feel fat and frumpy and gross most of the time which doesn't help motivate me... it helps me settle in for self pity.  

This last week I have been shopping and getting my hair done and doing all sorts of things just for me - something which I NEVER DO!!  So I have been lifting my own spirits a little since no one is going to do it for me.  I have been getting really frustrated with people's judgements and negativity and just total lack of support.  Then I realised that I need to think about me.  Do it for me.  I need to be selfish and positive and ignore those who are putting me down - no matter how much they say they love me.

I'm sick of waiting for happiness, waiting for a reason to smile.  Damn it I deserve to laugh and smile and be happy every single day and I am choosing to do this on my own.  No more waiting.  I haven't come this far and gone to these extremes just to fail and be miserable.  

Watch out everyone!  Here I come!

PS - here is my hair when it is done!
