OCTOBER 2nd - 4 years!!!

 Well today is the 4 year Anniversary of my Gastric Bypass Surgery.

I have heard people say that if you make it through the first couple of years that you HAVE IT MADE.  Everyday is a new day for me.  I still have to watch what I eat, drink, snack on, etc.  Daily things still make me sick.  I get the hiccups still to this day when I have had enough to eat.

I thank the Lord everyday for the side effects that I got with my surgery.  I'm still not sure if I could have done this on my own.

I went into surgery 4 years ago weighing 292 lbs.  Today I weigh 135.  My lowest weight was too small at 114.

I am happy with where I am and want to stay this way.

Just wanted to share my story with you all.

Good luck in your journey.

What an inspiration...Congratulations! Thanks for sharing.

 It's so nice to hear a *positive* story!!!! Congratulations to you!!!!! 

How awesome to hear from you and your great success. Glad to know that your pouch is working for you and you have found your happy weight. I know that we have been told we would have struggles but I think I am just coming to that realization. I am a slow learner I want to also have your success when I am four years out.

Awesome!! 

Wow, congrat! You really inspire me. I'll get my Oct 14, and I was wandering if it work for me. Reading your post really gives me hope and confirmation that this will be worth it.
