Goodbye to 2011 - Hello 2012
I will look back at this past year as one of the most significant in my life. This was the year that after nearly a four year wait I got my RNY surgery. So this is the year that my life has changed.
Part of that is my committment for the next year.
I will exercise more and increase my exercise as my ability allows.
I will look on my life as not a series of accomplishments but as the road it take to get there.
This year I plan not to be so focused on food - food is only fuel.
Have a great year guys, see you here next week.
Oh, I had to give up on my size 44 pants - they keep wanting to fall off.

I loved your line to not be so focused on food and that it is only fuel. Very insightful and a key point
that as long as we fuel our bodies with mostly good stuff we won't end up back where we all came from.
LOL about the 44's trying to exit your body. I can totally relate. Speaking of which, I should probably go dig through the back of my closet for one of my ancient belts that I'm sure will fit now!!
Happy New Year and best of luck on your 2012 commitments!! They are good ones!

541+ all time high
491 Lap Rny 1-12-11
313 50 weeks post op didn't eat well during the holidays, but I did drop 10 pounds since Xmas.
2011 was a great year! Prior to researching RNY on here and getting first hand testimonial's from Moose,Sally,Groucho, and the MB's on OH I thought WLS wasn't for me. Ya I dropped 75 pounds once pre wls, but put it back on in a quickness. So this is a amazing ride!
Highlights for 2011
had Lap RNY 1-12
able to fit in to "normal" seats everywhere
shop at regular stores good bye casual male and king size
no longer on the sidelines when everyone else is out busting a move on the dance floor
ran a 5k
learned how to mindfully eat and stay away from pop
able to be more active all the time
Things to improve for 2012
get to my first goal of 250 pounds
be better at getting to the gym on a regular schedule
be better at mindful eating in all situations

Well, it was one year ago today I got on the scale and looked at myself in the mirror and said "Man, I gotta do somethin' about this for real".
So here I am today, 113 pounds lighter and a different person. I never dreamed last year that things would turn out the way they did. This is without a doubt the most significant year in my life so far. And the upcoming year is just going to get better. I can't wait!
