Im a Grad!!

Yes its been just over a year since I had my Lap RNY!! The 1st year went by fast let me tell ya!! Im down 124 lbs with 30 or so more to go. Im off my BP meds and 3 shots of insulin a day. Im doing things I would have never done 124 pluss pounds ago. I go tanning, go to fairs and festivals, sit in booths in resturants, shop in normal size stores, dont worry about seat belts, and just have alot more confidence and self esteeme!! I plan on having a TT and arm lift next summer. These are the 2 areas that bug me the most. I just want to wear a cute sleveless summer dress, without bat wings and a big tummy! I am so grateful for this surgery and all I have accomplished this past year!!

Congratulations Kathy and Welcome! It sounds like things have really gone well for you~that's wonderful!!!!!!!!!!! Tracy B 328/150 5'9"

Thank you Tracy........you look wonderful yourself!!!!!!

Way to go Kathy!:clap::clap::clap: I am 2 1/2 yrs out and I still wouldn't take anything for our surgery! We actually get to live life now versus watching it. *S* Advice on the tummy tuck, do it during the winter, you have to wear a binder afterwards and in the summer I think it might be more confining than what you want. Congrats! Jan

The thing is I have summers off (I work for the school district) so I have the time then............ We do have central air!!! Ill just stay inside lol!

Congratulations on all your accomplishments during the past year. Welcome to the board. Hope you enjoy hanging out with us. Have a great day!

Thanks Pat! I lurk alot, but enjoy learning from everyone!
