Hello everyone. Well today was my one year postop check up. By the doctors scale my grand total weight loss since surgery is 94lbs. I was hoping to hit 100, but will have to just keep trying. Still I am alot better off than I was one year ago. Feeling so much better and so much more healthier too. My total since I started my preop journey in Sept 2005 and my one year total adds up to 105lbs lost. In 2000 I was at my highest weight of 350lbs I had a severe illness and lost about 80lbs by Sept. 2001. After my health improved so did my appetite and I started to regain weight which scared me so much that I started to look into WLS in 2005 to finally get the help I really needed. Now I am 175 lbs. I would like to lose 25lbs more. This year has flown by. My husband says it is because I can be so much more active and keep myself busy. I feel like a miracle has happened to me. I never dreamed I could change the way I was, but this tool given me with WLS has changed my life. I am so glad I found all of you on this April message board. You are all such a caring and supportive group of people. Never have I heard a negative or unkind word. I hope we can all keep supporting each other as time goes on and we encounter any struggles along the way. Happy anniversary to us All. Hugs from Sher
