1 year surgiversary

I post here a lot, so I won't write a big thing. I just wanted to thank everyone so much for guiding me over the last year. I'm so thankful for OH and for VSG. Here is a brief recap of my year:
- Lost 14lbs on 10 day liquid diet
- Surgery in mexico at 209
- At original goal of 135 6 months after surgery
- Lost down to 121 but some of that was a nasty stomach bug
- Today I'm 126 and trying to get down to the low 120s again
- I'm still trying to figure out maintenance and very aware of how easy it would be to gain weight. My willpower is exhausted after the last year and I'm not always making the best choices. I'm settling in for the long-term fight to keep my weight in the 120s.
I'm always open to answering questions. I've gone from a size 18 to a size 2 and I'm thrilled. Thank you OH!
Congrats on your surgiversary!

Congratulations! We share the same surgiversary (1 year apart)! You've done a great job and I think figuring out maintenance probably never ends.
