It's My Third Rebirthday!!

It's hard to believe it's been 3 years. WOW!! Where has the time gone. I am so grateful to have had the surgery. I was looking at some old photos of me and I look 20 years older! What a blessing this surgery has been to me. Am I where I want to be? NO. But praise God I'm not where I used to be. I had my 3 year check up yesterday. I'm 2 lbs heavier than I was this time last year. I'll take it. I'm still 100+ less than I was 3 years ago!!!!! I can: 1. Touch my toes 2. Run up and down stairs 3. Fly in airplane without a seatbelt extender 4. Shop in real stores!!! 5. Fit in theater seats 6. Fit in a booth 7. Walk across a room with confidence 8. Get men to whistle at me!!! 9. Get asked out on dates (GO FIGURE THIS ONE!!!) 10. Wear a bathing suit with confidence (I'VE GOT CUTE CURVES! - WHO KNEW!!) 11. And so much more.... This journey continues... Hugs! Denise

Thanks Deann! Talk about making my day!!!!  Have a great weekend!!!!

Congratulations, Denise. I think more of us could use to make a list like this from time to time when we're getting down on ourselves for some misdirected calories. I personally go to the photo album that traces my progress from 3 days before surgery to each monthly anniversary for a year and then every 3 mons after that. Now that satisfaction is better then a brownie. Good luck to us all. Wilma
