3 yrs and counting

O.H. sent me an anniversary greeting today. 

   It was 3yrs ago today that  I underwent my original RNY at Scottsdale Shea.  at 425 lbs.   I dropped 125 lbs in the next 13 months , struggled  with  gaining 15lbs over the next 6 months . 

Just over a yr ago I had my surgical revision with Dr S. I have lost another 65 lbs  and continue to loose .. last month I dropped 10 lbs .. and today I weighed and down another 2lbs.

While I am not at my personal goal weight yet. I feel I am pretty darn close .. a mere 50 lbs - I can do this !!

The moral of my story ..... 
 It takes time !  Dont give up !
 Face your demons. ( sugar, carbs )
 keep  going to support groups - they do help!


*** highest weight  452
*** currently  248 &  Proud of it

Congrats on your success. Keep it up and those mere 50 lbs. will be gone. It's all hard work but in the end well worth it! Enjoy it!!

Hugs and continue with the great work!

WOW! Gina that is amazing, you're amazing...So good to see that this surgery is still working for you even after a year gone by...Most RNY's only last a good 6 months...

I just wanted to say keep up the good work and I'm praying that we all make it to our goals.
