ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY
It has been one year and one day since my surgery!!! I have lost 110 llbs. and feel great!!! I do hate the loose skin, but i can deal with it for now. I can eat about the equivelent of a child's plate. (sometimes less) I am very happy that i had the surgery and i encourage anyone who needs to have it done... to go for it. There is life out there!!!
GOOD JOB DONNA!
I AM PROUD OF YOU!
Just like everyone else on this board, I know how hard it was to get the courage to do something like this, especially in Mexico! WLS is not easy by any means, I'm sure you've had your struggles! I am glad you feel good, because that is most important!
I'm 31 and thank God every day for giving me the strength to follow my heart and have this surgery. I have added long and healthy years to my life, gotten rid of my diabetes and other health problems. This surgery truly is a lifesaver!
God bless!

101 lost, hopefully a few more to go!
Hey Donna!!
Congrats on the anniversary.. 110 is a lot of weight! Good Job. I understand what you are saying about the loose skin issue.. Try being 50 and loosing all that weight.. I think my skin is trying to go south of the boarder without me!!! Doesn't seem to tighten up as easy when your older.. Been thinking about surgery, but cant afford a 'WHOLE BODY" makeover!!! Think our next reunion should be somewhere that we can get a group discount on PS... hummmm Well good luck to you.. good to hear from you again.. We have all b ecoume strangers!!

Donna,
CONGRATULATIONS, DONNA!
So happy/proud for you! I am now 16.5 months out and have lost 145 pounds!
I have been having some medical issues, which is why I am not on board much, but nothing to do with the wls. As a matter of fact, if I still weighed 270, I would not have survived the last 6 months! This surgery was truly a God-send and the best decision I have ever made in my life! Best of everything to you!
