About this time... to the hour... 4 years ago ...I was laying in my hospital bed saying Thank God its over, I made it through surgery. When I think back to how my life was back then I cant imagine it and just how miserable I really was. Aches, pains, depression, just hating going out.......Im so glad thats all gone now. Having WLS has change my life for the better...MUCH better....I started out as a light weight to most standards but on the inside I suffered like everyone else. Now 4 years later I happy to say LIFE is GOOD!!!! Down still 80 lbs and holding, up and down 5 lbs. Still no dumping though sometimes I wish I would so I wouldnt eat everything and could get down another 20. Somedays I eat a ton, somedays alittle, go figure. My energy level is fine, my attitude is good, homelife, hmmm ups and downs I have two teenagers arggggg but my marriage is great thank goodness. I should really stress that THANK GOODNESS he is my rock and like before when I was big loves, me to death, as I do him. Anyway not sure what else to write but just wanted to check in with the Marchers....Keep on Marching and Keep on Dropping!!! I wouldnt do anything differently, WLS is a life saver!!!!!

Hi Kim, thanks for this great and positive post! Congrats on holding steady - I took a peek at your profile and we have lots in common...teenager at home, I've performed in theatre for most of my life, horseback riding - my GREAT passion these days, I'm training in dressage on my beautiful friesian girl, Laela (you can see photos of us at my profile page) - are you riding? And I also love to fish with my son. To what do you attribute your continued success? I think the more we can hear from each other on what's working for us, that's where we can really help each other. Thanks again, I hope to see you posting much more often! Reenie
