Hello Everyone!

Today I am celebrating one year out from my Gastric Bypass.

I am pleased with the past years changes.

My total loss is at - 100.6 lbs of Fat I shall never miss.

Thank you to my surgeon, James Kane Jr. and his staff for taking such wonderful care of each step of this journey.

To date I have had no complications and I am free of Blood pressure meds and medications for Diabetes 2.

I owe so much to my wonderful OH family - you have also held my hand before the surgery and after. I have lost weight and gained so many friends. Thank you

Hugs
Cathy

I knew you looked great in June at the OH event, but I didn't realize how much you had lost. Keep up the great work. The ride isn't over yet.
