Celebrating 2 years

Well I made it 2 years. 189 pounds lighter and still losing here and there. I still have trouble getting food in but if I watch what I eat, I am ok for the most part. I celebrated my 2 year birthday with a bang . I took my girl scout troop to Walt Disney World for 7 days. I wore them out. 6 girls, myself, and my co-leader. My energy level is at an all time high and I have come so far. I go next week to see a plastic surgeon about some of the skin removal which for me is a biggie. With clothes on, I look wonderful. without them is a very scary sight. I am not comfortable in anything but pants because of the skin on my thighs and my shirts have to have sleeves because of the bat wings. Would I do this again. Yep I would! The last two years have been a daily battle to eat and to live, but determination, prayer and alot of luck have gotten us all though. Congrats to all the Mayers out there. Kat

Hi Kat, It's great to hear you're doing so well. I would do this in a heartbeat again too, but I'm surely struggling with 20 pounds right now. Enjoy the energy and good luck with your PS appt! Wanda

Hi there Wanda and Kat, So delightful to see you both posting. Wanda I know how hard that struggle is. I have to work hard just to maintain and if I get off track for a few days ...poof the lbs start creeping back. Thank God for this tool ...but we have to use it and often I get amnesia and imagine I can eat what I feel like . When will I ever learn ? I'm pulling for ya gal. You can do it ! Now Kat, it has been soooo long...missed ya ! Lucky girl getting PS, glad you can. After 189 lbs gone bet you are ready, huh? I am dreaming of PS but may have to wait quite a while. Glad you are feeling well and energetic. I pray for all of the Mayers regularly and when I see you gals post it is a real blessing to catch up. Mary

Congrats Kat, can you believe its been two years already. Seems like a lifetime to me. I know what you mean about looking good with clothes on, I am the same way. I still have issues with my legs. I cannot afford plastics so I am left to just deal. I always wanted to wear shorts after surgery and I still don't wear them. Anyways glad to see you post, I miss how we all use to post! Candy
