Six Month Anniversary

Today has been 6 months since surgery. From the time I first saw Dr. Stickler, I am down 103 lbs. since surgery 87 lb., and since my all-time highest weight 111.5 lbs. I am so glad I had this done. We went to Kings Island and a Reds ballgame last weekend. I was so amazed...I fit in the seats, no swollen feet or ankles, no back pain...and the list goes on. My 17 yr. old son turned to me on one of the water rides and said "It is so good to be able to ride rides with my Mom". I just wanted to cry. I did not realize how my being obese affected my family as well as myself. Good luck to all those out there anticipating WLS. It has given me my life back.
