I FINALLY made it!
After a little more than 2 years post-op, I finally, as of today, have lost 100 pounds and met one of my biggest goals!
I now have 10 pounds to go to reach my 'goal weight'. My primary goal with having surgery was to obtain a healthy weight and to improve my health overall. I have met that goal. I am healthy, happy, and more energetic. I had no complications from my surgery, am able to eat a very wide variety of foods, including all of my favorites from before surgery, and have never even vomited since surgery. I am very pleased with the results of my abdominoplasty (there are some pictures on my www below) and being able to feel good about myself. I spent so many wasted years despising myself. I wish I had those years back sometimes, but I think that things in life happen for a reason. I have made some WONDERFUL friends through OH (Hi girlfriends ~ Love Ya!) and that would not have happened if I hadn't been obese and had the surgery.
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!
