10 months later 14 sizes smaller!!
It has been an amazing 10 months! It is hard to believe that I ever was 427 pounds. I feel soooooo Good! I work out 3x a week and walk daily. I have gone from a 32 plus size to a 18. I have lost 145 pounds in 10 months. I don't sleep with my CPAP anymore and I am no longer insulin resistant, nor do I have to take medication for my cholestorol. I only have to take my supplements now. People that haven't seen me do not recognize me it feel so good to be alive again. I do feel have issues with sagging skin but hey I feel like a million bucks. I am so blessed and thankful that I had the surgery it truly saved my life. I have a ways to go still but I can cross my legs, sit in theater seats and effortlessly tie my shoes. I love the new me and it just keeps getting better. God Bless.
Congratulations Sharon!!! I cried when I read your posting. I am so happy for you. I had my surgery 8/21/02 and I have lost 100 lbs. I started at 265, 5'8, size 24, I am now size 10, 166 lb. and I feel as if I am re-born. The surgery for me was a blessing and I am thrilled to see someone else feeling and doing so well. I love crossing my legs now!!!. I work out daily and love it. I will never go back. This feels so good. Take care of yourself. I wish you continued success and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. YOU GO GIRL!!!!
