Can't believe it's my one year check up already.....
I will be 1 year post op on February 11th. But my year check up is tomorrow at Humber@ 8 and 9 then at Dr Kleins office at 11:15. This year has just flown by so fast....it's crazy!
I love my new pouch...it has given me a new lease on life I never imagined. My bmi has dropped almost 20. I have lost 97 pounds...and reached goal. Which I have NEVER accomplished in the past....not even remotely close. I have went from a size 18/20 to a 2/4 depending on the pants. I can wear cute boots that actually zip up over my calves and jeans. I feel more confidence then I ever have in my life.
No regrets..
Congratulations!! What an accomplishment. I excited for you about the boots too!!!
