5 YEARS!!!!
WOW! Its hard to believe. I am just shy of my 5 year mark.
Life is fantastic! I really never knew how good this could be. Its truly life changing.
I started my journey in January of 2007. I said to myself: This is it, Im doing surgery
this is my year. My husband was ok w/ it. I
found a Dr. and had my surgery w/o thinking about it too much. I was lucky, smooth recovery,
quick as hell weight loss. I had my days of nausea, sure, tired some, but WOW. 150 lbs (passed goal) in just over one year isnt bad. We since moved out of state and everyone I have met never knew I ever had a weight problem. I bounce a bit, but I know what I do carbs, ugh, For the first two years I didnt think I would ever be able to eat them again, but let me tell you, I can! I enjoy food, little meals, snacks, and I am good. I have plenty of restriction. (Sometimes not good sence!!) I keep my weight in check, some days 142 - 147. Solid Medium in clothes. FUN WITH CLOTHES! Its taken me a while to develop my style, whew, Thanks honey $$!
If your are scared, I was scard too, I knew sometimes there are complications, and I knew I had to do it WHILE my health could take it. Sooner is better than later, JMO! I could go on and on, but I wont, Thank you, Best to all of you seekers, Do it!! It can be that good!!
