I was giving you credit for dealing with your issues. No insult was intended, you strike me as a very strong, capable person having read your posts for years.  You are an inspiration Gwen!

The most crazy, nuts, insane thing I did after I had WLS (about 4.5 years after I had the VSG [06/08/2010]) is that I did a zip line in Arizona on 01/26/2015. What a rush! What a ride! I had fun!

I coordinated a group zip lining excursion in Honduras in 2013! 
I was 64 years old!!!  I had always wanted to zip line but was right at the maximum weight and was afraid to.  What a victory it was to finally experience that dream.
