Happy 2nd surgiversary!  There will be several of ours coming up in Sept/Oct!!! 

Today I saw my daughters high school golf coach - sweet lady, always been overweight.  She recognized my face, but not my body - lol.  She made quite a big deal out of I was half the size I was (almost).

She asked how I did it - I told her WLS.  She said she thought about it and I told her it was the best thing I've ever done.  Of course she knows someone who has gained it all back.. scares the HE** out of me!! 

We have to help each other through our trials and tribulations - and you've done a great job!!!!

thanks jody.  i enjoy reading your posts and think of you as someone whose advice i consider worthy. 

most folks ask me if i;ve lost 20# when in fact ive lost over a hundred.  i always could carry weight well - whatever that means.  you are a tiny wee pixie whereas i am a wrecking ball.  i think my personality bowls people over and they never really see my physical being. 

gaining the weight back is scaring me silly. 

one day at a time.  one mouthful at a time.

YAY!!!  Happy Anniversary!  You've done a great job shedding over 100 pounds and keeping them off.  I hope you're very proud of yourself!   Do you get to go see Dr. Baggs for a 2 year checkup?  I'm seeing him on August 26th for my 6 month.  I'd love to run into you there.  :)
