Thanks everyone 1 year anniversary!!!!

Today is my new re Birthday. I started at 311, day of surgery 296. I have lost 145 pounds. I wore size 28 pants 4x tops and a lot of old outdated clothes. Today I am wearing size 10 jeans medium tops but the most important and thrilling part about his wonderful journey is I am healthy. All my labs are normal, I only take vitamins, 2 a day. I live to make good decisions. I think that is what it is about. Temptation is there, it is hard but I never want to be in that dark place again. Thank you for all the support. My family, is the best. It means the most to have your support, I could never have done it without you. I also thank everyone here at Obesity Help. This is where I did my research. This is where I found Dr. Tom. Again Thanks a lot. I hope anyone thinking about this learns everything they can before you do this. This is a trade off for many life threatening illnesses and I was given , in sense, a different medical problem, but one that I have control over and will make me healthy. Jane Cahill

Thanks Mike. By the way how is your wife doing? Your day is getting closer. It's really great that you and your wife are doing this together. Jane

Happy Rebirthday Jane. You are an inspiration to me. How is your sis Amy? Did she get to come home today? Blessings Amy L

Thanks Amy. My sister is coming home tomorrow. She is fine but she had a lot of scar tissue which took some work to free everything up. They kept her an extra day just as precaution. She was up and in a chair the first night and she has been walking the floor ever since. That is the key. Tonight she was great. I don't think she has needed any pain medication except for the first day. Thanks for asking. Thanks for the nice words. Jane

Congrats! You are such an inspiration to me!!!
