HAPPY ONE YEAR TO ALL OF US!!!!!

CONGRATS TO US ALL FOR ALL WE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED THIS YEAR!!!!! I, MYSELF HAVE BEEN REFLECTING BACK TO THIS TIME LAST YEAR AS MY SURGERY WAS FAST APPROACHING. (I HAD BACKED OUT OF MY FIRST DATE OF NOV 3 AND HAD TO BE RESCHEDULED FOR NOV.25) YALL, I WAS SCARED OUT OF MY MIND TO HAVE THIS SURGERY BUT CAN SAY NOW THAT ITS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE. MY ONLY REGRET?? NOT DOING IT SOONER IN MY LIFE!!! I HAVE BEEN THROUGH A FEW COMPLICATIONS BUT CAN SAY WITH CERTAINTY THAT I WOULD DO IT AGAIN IN A HEARTBEAT!! i STARTED OUT IN A SIZE 24 AND NOW WEAR SIZE 6/8. MOST OF MY HEALTH PROBLEMS ARE GONE AND I HAVE TONS MORE SELF ESTEEM AND ENERGY TO BOOT!! I KNOW YALL ARE RIGHT IN THE SAME BOAT WITH ME SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US!!! TIME TO CELEBRATE AND JENNIFER A. OPEN RNY 11/25/03

Congrats to you jennifer! You have made it a year so far! I too have made it a year & WOW do I feel wonderful! I lost 80 pounds & I am at goal. I am now a size 4 with some 6's. I am going to Costa Rica for plastic surgery this Tuesday! Surgery will be on the 15th. Keep me in your thoughts! I can't believe it has been a year! It flew by really fast! I'm fortunate that I have not had any complications & all of my health problems are gone! Plus, just like Jennifer, I have a ton more self-esteem! Keep up the good work all! Priscilla in Minnesota -80 at goal!
