my how time flies.it has been two years since I took the biggest step of my life.In the first 18 monhs I lost 264 lbs.Since last June the weight has remained the same give or take 3 to 5 lbs,but my clthes size has gone down 3 more sizes.I am relly glad I am in no hurry to do plstics just yet.I am quiet surprised to find out how easy my new way of life has become.Don't misunderstand the first 6 to 8 months were a living nightmare.So many changes and new ways to do things.But after my new patterns were established it really is an easy way to live.I've had very few problems relatd to the surgery itself.Passed 4 kidney stones 4 months post op,but that was nothing new,I'd had them before.And now i have a pinched nreve in my neck.am waiting for a referral to a neurologist so I can return from lala land.the drugs are good for pain relief but make me non functional.I am so grateful for this gift and to the Drs that were willing to help me on this journey.
