3 days late...3 years post-op
01/17/2007....3 years ago My life totally changed and I will never be the same. Some good and some bad. Still no regrets not ever!!!!
I still dump at least once a week. If this shocks some of you, please understand that I am fighting and feeding an addiction with every bite. I still cry some days in amazement when I look in the mirror and see the frame that covers me. I find that I miss my friends that I have made during this journey more than I miss the friends that I had before i started this journey. It is 3 years and I take my vitamins daily as if I just got discharged from the hospital and there are still months where I grow hair and month where I lose hair. To solve that problem I keep it cut almost bald all the time. All in all I am living my life like it is golden and loving every minute of it. I don't think I have EVER been as happy as I am at this point in my life.
I will be 46 in May. I stand 5'8 and weigh between 160 and 165 on most days.
Those trying keep trying...it is well worth it.
Those going thru...one day at a time
And to those WLS Divas....Keep Representing....we are watching and taking notes.
I am posting a before and After because I love looking at everybody elses so i figure I couldn't be the only one.
362 lbs maybe more at this point,,,who knows......BEFORE
162 lbs at an all black b-day party posing with the b-day boy.....man
Same Party
