HOORAY, TODAY'S MY SURGIVERSARY!!!
I cant believe it's been a year... it's gone sooooo fast, and i've had so many changes in my life!!! Last year at this time i was asking myself what the heck did i do to myself... am i crazy for doing this??? Am i too old to have done this? Is my body rejecting the surgery? Will this old body ever be able to heal? Am i really supposed to be this sick?
Today, i'm a new person!! I'm sooo thankful i did this for myself. i'm healthier than i've been in over 20 years. Went for my annual exam and bloodwork the other day and everything is PERFECT!!! OMG... how long has it been since i've been able to say that!!!
I have more energy, and self confidence than ever. I certainly haven't reached the end of my journey. Since the very beginning when my Dr. & I started talking about this i've lost almost 140 lbs!!! Still have more work to do, but i will never, ever, ever, allow myself to get to that spot again... i am happier than i've been in years and years.
If this is something you're considering but still unsure of, just know that this has changed my life for the better!!!
Judy,
Congratulations on your Surgiversary! I know that your metamorphosis has inspired Stan and that you will be a great help to him as he navigates his own journey.
Wishing you continued success in the new year,

I am so glad to hear Stan is doing so well .
Maybe you will have to get him Rock Star Hero for the Xbox 360 so he can show off his new talents to you.
BTW my Rosie is not doing well and I am going to have to make that choice like you did with your Nick it is never easy.
I told Lee this morning I know Rose will not get better or younger.
I gotta work today so I am on my way to walk the babies before I go.
