It's my surgiversary today!

Ok been a crazy day and I'm actually doing this from a Coffee shop in between meetings and such so here goes. Life is good, I'm healthier than I've ever been and don't regret this in any way shape or form. On 7/13/06: As of this morning I'm down to 172.4 and a BMI of 26.2 On 7/13/05: I started all this at 350#'s and a BMI of 54 I actually celebrated by being a speaker this morning at an informational meeting for other would be WLS patients. My surgeons office does these about once a week and today I answered questions to the group about my journey. It was a neat experience. Thank you all for all of your support, prayers, and laughs during the last year. I wish everyone of you was going to be in Vegas with us next week, but maybe next year. Have a Great and wonderful day!!!!

Awesome Peter! Congrats on your anniversary. It's real cool that you are helping future WLS patients. See you in Vegas! Tim

Wow, I never realized that you and I started out with similar stats. Too cool! Congratulations on everything! You've done amazing! That's way cool you got to speak & answer questions about your WLS journey. I would love to do something like that. I feel like shouting from the rooftops the wonders of this surgery sometimes! I wish, wish, wish I could've come to Vegas this year. Next year FOR SURE. I should start saving my pennies now in fact... Anyway, happy Surgiversay!! You have done awesome and should be PROUD! Take care! Lisa
