It's been a while...saying hello again
Hi everyone,
Just thought I would re introduce myself since I haven't been on this message board in forever. My name is Angi and I had lap RNY a year ago this month. It's been an incredible journey that has changed my life forever. All the things I thought I couldn't do I am doing. I've done 2 5k's, my feet don't hurt. I can ride a bike, I can walk for miles on end without feeling exhausted. I feel incredible!
I have been extremely lucky and have not had any issues or complications since having my surgery. I know that isn't always the case for some people, but for me it's been a pretty smooth ride.
I am very, very thankful for this tool that has helped save my life.

Congratulations! You sound like you are very active, which I know is great for KEEPING the weight off. I hope to join you in being more active, I already am moving much more and more easily than I was - that's for sure. 5K in my future? I hope so, at least WALKING!
Take care.
Take care.

I'm down 120 pounds - thanks to RNY! Working on the next 25. Then I'll tackle more...

The best advice I can give to anyone on this journey is to NEVER GIVE UP! You ARE WORTH THE LIFESTYLE CHANGE!
Do I have bad days? Absolutely. But my bad days are so minor compared to all of my good days. I hold my head up high. I walk with a smile on my face. I get people stopping me in the hall at work to tell me I look incredible. I wear dresses! I haven't worn a dress since I was about 23 years old!
