10 months ago

10 months ago, I was at the hospital, getting ready for my sleeve surgery, I had high blood pressure, sleep apnea, pain in my knees to where I had to crawl up steps and still in pain. I was 234.8 the day of my surgery, my all time high weight was 240. Now 10 months later I am 135.8, I can run up steps! I no longer have high blood pressure or sleep apnea, I can do things I would never have dreamed off 10 months ago, like run! LOL I can play run around the car with my dog, she loves that, I can stoop really low behind it and she loves to "find" me! LOL I can fit in my computer chair, I can fit into movie seats, and small seats in cafes, I love getting compliments about being too skinny now! I love looking at how small my clothes look and knowing, wonder of wonders that they fit me!! So 10 months later I have lost over 104 pounds and am thrilled with my sleeve! so anyway, that's my saga for this cold friday!

Edited to add: I am 54 years old, will be 55 in July, and have had 5 children! LOL 

Congrats Char!  I'm so proud of you girl! 

thanks DJ! Hugs sweetheart!

When you're slimming, your doctor decrees,
There are too many lipids in cheese,
If you're bored eating peas,
Here's a hint that will please:
Try the food at Lo Fat Cantonese!
