My 1 Year Post

My life changed into something more positive one year ago today, on October 14, 2011. As I reflect all the changes that have occurred over the last year, I feel happiness deep within my soul. It has by no means been a piece of cake, but it has been bearable. I still have food issues, and I probably will for the rest of my life. I have days when I struggle with making good food choices and I also struggle with being faithful to my exercise routine, or seeking help from other OH friends and my therapist when I hit a rough patch. Regardless, I am thankful to God and my doctor for making the weight loss surgery available to me. I can only imagine how my life would be today if I didn’t have surgery a year ago. This last year has been a journey of self discovery and I have realized maybe I do like that person looking back at me on the other side of the mirror, and maybe I do deserve to feel happy and content with myself for the first time
in a long time. I truly feel blessed.
