I MADE IT!!!
Hey Y'all,
It's been a good while since I posted. I peek in sometimes and miss you guys so much, but y'all are still my family and that is something that won't change no matter how grown I get! I was gonna post yesterday but the day got away from me. Yesterday marked 5 WHOLE YEARS since I was reborn. I went in not knowing what to expect, only having faith that my best days were ahead of me. Thankfully, I was correct! This has been a rollercoaster of a ride and I wouldn't have had it any other way!
At my highest weight I was 280, on surgery day I was 267. Today I teeter between 137 and 144. At my lowest I was 131. I can attest to this being both the best and hardest decision of my life and 5 years out, I can see that this was no easy fix. This takes conscious effort 365 days a year! I am so thankful for still being a success story even now. Yesterday, I went to a funeral and saw people who hadn't seen me in 5 years and still got my "oohs" and "ahs" and, y'all it still feels SOOOOO good! I love it and am thankful to God for giving me the courage to make such a decision.
Well, as always, I want to encourage all those beginning this journey and even some who are struggling in the midst of it! After 5 years, the honeymoon ain't over!!! I am still living and loving this journey....
Y'all take care!!!!!
