8 months out today! It is crazy how time flies. I am down 89 lbs (100 from the highest weight I ever saw pre referral)..I am -49 inches. I used to fit into 3x shirt and 20 pants...now in a med shirt and 10 pant. I am still a bit swollen in the belly from my hernia operation 3 weeks ago but I am otherwise feeling much better. Would like to be down another 20-30 lbs before my 1 year in July. Even with some complications, I will never regret having this surgery..the things this tool gave me back are priceless..and I feel very fortunate to be given such a gift! Just as soon as I am allowed I will continue on with my 10k training...sitting around healing is a nightmare. All I can think about is running! (who would have thought I would have said such a thing 8 months ago) Onward and downward they say!
