I really can't believe it has been two years.  I have a hard time remembering that I carried around 173 lbs extra . . . Life is so much easier.  So much less paranoia . . . I am still surprised to be able to easily negotiate a restaurant, get into a booth, fit into an airline seat, hike 2 hours without being exhausted or sore and buy clothes cause I like them. 

Yet, I worry everyday about eating habits.  I seem to be able to eat "normally".  And, sometimes I seem to eat more than my thin partner.  The tool works but sometimes my choices are less than ideal.  SCARES ME!

Hello Everyone!

Today is my 2 yr anniversary!  Very happy and pleased with my progress thus far.  It has been a wonderful journey -- I am SO GRATEFUL because:

* The surgery SAVED my life
* The surgery GAVE me a NEW life
*  My life has COMPLETELY turned around
*  I can NOW get on the floor and play with my 6yr old 
*  Food is NO LONGER my focus or crutch
