2 YRS TODAY!!!!

Can't believe it's been 2yrs. So much has changed, so much happiness gained. I'm proud to say I'm still maintaining my lowest weight ....it's a daily chore people!!!! I still track everything, weigh myself daily, gym 5 days a week. It's a lot if work...but I know what the alternative feels like...and want no part of my "old" life. I've had my challenges and set backs as we all do...but I'm feeling proud and very happy today with myself. I am so glad I had this surgery.

Congrats!

Woo hoo. Way to go

Glad I saw this post. Sincere congrats to you. Now the tough stuff begins. Keep a sharp eye on the scale and your can do attitude. Year 3 on can get really tough.

All the best, I believe in you!

Awww Thanks birdiegirl

Really NOT looking forward to things getting any tougher..but I know they do.

Year 3....let's do it !!! Lol

Congratulations on losing weight, keeping it off, and being active! You go girl!

im preop. Two years out are you able to eat whatever you want? How about rhe quantity?

Thank you.,,yes I've been able to eat anything from about the 3mth point. No sickness, no ill effects no huge amt of restriction.. Those were the things i was hoping would deter me from eating. I relied on measuring not to overeat. Being pre op realize that many many people after the healing process feel "normal" again...it's all you and all the choices you make. I was 100% diligent in yr 1...lost the majority of weight by 7mths. I never tested the waters by trying bad food because of fear...all the stories I heard from others. After yr 1 I realized I could eat anything with ease...that's when things get harder. Stay away from the bad stuff as long as you can. Use that golden first yr to get the weight off....then maintaining from there

Good luck to you Lucile777 .

Congratulations on maintaining your weight loss! You should be very proud of yourself!

Congratulations; that's so good to hear! So happy for you!

Happy Surgiversary!! My two-year is coming up this Friday. The work never ends it seems, but dang, this surgery has been a useful tool! Congratulations on all of your successes and the changes you've made to have such a healthy new life.
