What a difference a year makes

I cannot believe it has been a year. I have lost over 100 lbs and am wearing a size 12-14!! I could not be happier. It is amazing how the quality of my life has changed. I have about 20 more lbs to go to be at my goal but I am in no rush. I am so happy where I am and for the first time in my life I am comfortable in my own skin. It is really an amazing feeling. I am no longer afraid to sit in chairs (for fear i might break them) or am I afraid of shopping of clothes and all those things. I would definately have surgery again if I had to. My personal life could not be better as well. I am in love!!! For the first time in my life I am fully in love and he feels the same! It is so wonderful I cannot describe. For all of you out there contemplating or awaiting your surgery, I wish you the very best of luck. It is a life changing surgery. I do not get sick that often anymore but it does happen and it sucks when it does. I threw out my scale months ago and decided to weigh myself once a month. It is a freedom for me not to deal with the scale. I have obsessed over the scale my entire life and now I dont even think about it!! Thank you to everyone out there who took the time to write about their journey and share with people. It was such a lifesaver for while I was awaiting my surgery date. Peace and love to all!! xoxoxox, Belinda

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I too am ayear out and loving life! I do everything,go everywhere and before I was a recluse! Life is soooo different and now it is WORTH LIVING!!!!! I know how you feel. Best regards,Kalyn Paul
