Hi All

hi i didnt want yall to think i forgot about yall cuz i didnt but ever since i had this surgery my life has changed. when i had my surgery on 7/26 i weighed 313 lbs. since then i have lost so much weight. i weigh 240 lbs. now and i am still loosing. my boyfriend left me right before i had surgery which devastated me we were together for 3 yrs. we are trying to work it out but it doesnt look likely! I am dating other people and I am sure he is too. I went from a size 24 to a size 16. I dont know how many inches I lost. I went from a 42DD to a 36D. And the funniest thing is my shoe size even changed from a tight 11 to a loose 10. I am in my glory and counting my blessings. I will update my profile with new pictures as soon as I can. The changes are unbelievable. My self esteem has improved 200% who ever thought of gastric bypass changed my life. for me it has been the best thing since cooked food i am not hungry i eat what i want when i want just in moderation. i am changing my lifestyle willingly its not painful at all but pleasureable if i may add. i have had zero complications thus far.

Dear Vette, Congratulations on all your accomplishments!!!!!!! You sound like a person who is now both self confident and loving life!! Isn't it a blast!!! I love all the restored energy. I, myself, had the surgery the day before you did. I started out at 250 and now, 3 months later, I have lost 51 lbs. to put me at 199lbs. I wish you continued success and hope that you stay happy and healthy. All my best with lots of love and hugs, Jen Davis from Piscataway

Congratulations Vette! It sounds like you are doing fabulous! Keep up the good work!
