TWO YEARS AND 202 POUNDS!!!!
My WLS anniversary is 02/16 and to date I have lost 202 pounds. Two years ago I made the decision to take back my life. It was a personal decision which we have all made for our own reasons. I just got to the point where it was now or never, I had tried EVERYTHING else and been overweight my entire adult life. It has not been an easy road. I have had several additional surgeries, including my gallbladder out, an intestinal blockage and just 3 weeks ago a foot of my colon removed. With all that being said, I would have the surgery again tomorrow if I needed to. Because even with all the road bumps it has been worth it. My life has been changed forever. I am happier and healthier than I have ever been and smaller. Here is a lihk to my before and after pic after I had lost 125lbs. I look back now and its hard to believe that is me in that fat suit, carrying around all that weight.

So I owe my life to WLS surgery and if I hadnt had surgery I wouldnt know all of you fabulous and fun people, especially one who stole my heart.
It's been a wild ride, but worth it!!!!
