2-Year Surgiversary!

Hi Everyone!  Haven't posted in a while but I wanted to write and say that last Saturday was my 2 year surgiversary.  What a 2 years it has been.  I have had a few bumps along the way (the last 8 months I have had this pain in my left side that no one can seem to figure out what it is).  However, overall I have to say my surgery was one of the best decisions I ever made.  I have lost 157 pounds.  I have lost over 90 inches from head to toe.  I went from a size 30/32 to a size Medium top and a size 10 pants.  It seems hard to believe.  2 years ago I couldn't walk around one block and now I have a small pet sitting business and I walk sometimes 6-8 dogs a day.  I used to go to bed at 9pm at night and get up at 10 or 11am.  Then in the afternoon I would have to take a nap because I was so tired.  Now, I sleep 8 hours a night with no napping (sometimes a short snooze with one of my pups, but not usually).  There are many more things that I can do, but I am sure that many of you know what they are as you have experienced them as well. 
Please take a look at my profile as I am going to post some new pictures of myself, too.  The only thing I would like to do now is some plastics.  However, I have zero credit and I am in a lot of debt so I don't think that will happen anytime soon. 
I hope to see some of you at the meeting Friday night at Community Medical Center.
I wish all of you a Happy Holiday Season and a Happy, Healthy New Year!
Take care,
Kim

hey kim

i hear you on the plastics, it sure is pricey stuff.  so i dont see any in my future either.

hugs, jacki

Wow!  congrats.  You inspire us early outs!

Hi Kim!
Happy Surgiversary! You should be very proud of your accomplishments both in weight loss and in your pet sitting business! How great that you were able to start up a business and make some money! Now you know you can do anything you set your mind to! Try to see if you can get the plastics paid for by a reality show...that's an idea! Luckily my skin issues are pretty minor but it would probably drive me nuts if I had loose skin! If the skin is a bother and you document you can get some of it covered OR get it done in Tiajuana by American doctors at a fraction of the price!
