My three year surgiversary

CONGRATULATIONS!  What a wonderful achievement!  You must feel so proud and happy and HEALTHY!  WOO HOO, you go!

Thank you.  I DO feel healthy - and kinda .... NORMAL.  It's a great feeling.  You'll get to this place before you know it!  Time goes by so fast.  It's hard to believe it's been three years.

Wwwhhoooo!! Congrats Evelyn on your success.

...and by the way it's just fine that you go to Weigh****chers. It helps keep you accountable and you know what you have to do. Most of all you like the people and they are nice to you.

Good luck on your plastic surgery too. I can't afford plastics so I have embraced my angel wings, shar-pai thighs and my droopy chesticals...thank goodness for my Victoria Secret Miracle bra, support panties...and I just say to heck with hiding my arms, they are part of me so I wear bathing suits and sleeveless tops in public and people don't have to look if they don't want!!

Thank you!  You know, I really need to work on this body image thing and get over my shame about my arms.  There's just angel wings, after all!  Thanks for the reminder!

that is a definite sucess story if I have ever heard one.  3 yrs and maintaining!  wow.  I will have my first surgiversary 12/22.  So far I have lost 145 lbs.  I hope to be down to my goal weight by Jan 19th.  My dr's appt will be almost a month late of the one yr mark.  If I can lose the  25 lbs by then I will be ecstatic.  If I don't, that will be okay too.  I'll  just continue to work on it.  But it is so good to hear your story.  Gives me hope.  Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the kind words.  

Any YOU - you've done so well -- 145 pounds!  You've really rocked this first post op year!  I'm so happy for you.

Aloha Ev.......Your story is wonderful!! I am so happy for you. I am glad you had no complications.......I was one of the ones who didn't either, and I'm so grateful, especially when I hear some of the stories of complications.

Keep up the great work.....you are a terrific example!

Aloha nui loa,

Thank you Karen.  Your posts always make me smile.  I can glimpse a little bit of your island paradise when I read your posts.
