Over a year!
Hello girls!
Just thought I'd post quick update. I read the posts often but haven't posted anything lately!
It's been over a year since my RNY...and I'm feeling great! My BMI is down to 23...finally in the normal range. I've lost about 105 pounds and I'm down to a size 7...and on my 5'9" frame, I'm very happy with that. I did buy a very snazzy dress in a size 6 this summer...but most of my pants are a 7 so I'm going with that. All of my shirts are now a small or medium...very hard to believe.
But best of all, I'm feeling better than ever and I'm very healthy. I'm running 5-6 miles at once and I'm going to zumba regularly. I did 'jillian Michaels 30 day shred' every day this summer and toned up a lot of my excess 'flabby skin'. I do have an ole' grandpa butt and quite a lot of tummy skin but I will never ever complain! Maybe if we will the lottery I'll get a tummy tuck or something!
Sorry I haven't been to any meet and greets...life is so busy around here...just hasn't worked out. But I'd love to see the "old" faces and meet some of the new...maybe some day I'll be there.
Take care everyone!!

You really did drop off the face of the earth! But WOW! you have done so well, a total inspiration for people just starting. I am 8 days out now and your stats are really food for thought, maybe I could really have a BMI under 25? You should definitely try and come out to a M & G, see if anyone recognizes you!
again, congrats and enjoy your new healthier life.

OMG K...so great to hear from you and way to go on your loss. Amazing....5'9" and a size 7...you've turned into super-model material! Hope to see you soon at a M&G. Keep up the fantastic work...you're an inspiration.
