2 Year Birthday
On October 18th I was 2 years post-op. It's been so long since I have posted or even visited the message board. I used to read the posts daily. Anyway, here's my update:
PreOp weight: 382 lbs.
Current Weight: 178 lbs.
Hernia repair and tummy tuck done August of this year. Still pretty sore from surgery but this is the first time in my life that I have had flat tummy.
I even have to show it off by tucking my blouses into my slacks. Something else I have never done.
This is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I feel so o o much healthier and love being able to do more activities than 2 years ago.
However, I have found that my appetite has returned and I can eat most anything. I tend to fall into old habits but have been able to recognize them and control them, so far. I am fearful of gaining weight back.
Congratulations to all of us October 2004 alumni.
