Yes it has already been my half a year date come and gone. I cant believe it has flown by so fast. I swear it seems like last week when I was posting 5 million questions about what to expect and all. Well it has been an interesting 6 months to say the least. I have lost 144 lbs since surgery and 165 since this time last year. I have lost numerous sizes in my clothing. Have survived a death in my family, a hurricane, and most of all I learned again that it is possible to live without lights lol.(learned it the first time after hurricane elaina on the coast). But my life is going so much better since I am a loser. I cant believe how much better I get around and am able to do things. I enjoy little things like being able to go into the dressing rooms at walmart and try on clthes that actually fit and I dont have to go to only the big and tall stores to find clothes. The way I fit in a car is so wonderful. I even traded out my van for a blazer last week so I am compacting the cars even lol. and most of all I want to say THANK YOU to all my OH family and friends for all of your support before and after surgery and from here on out it has meant more to me than you all will ever know.
