My 6 year WLS anniversary!!

Wow it has been six years since I had WLS!!  10/26/2004 I had weight loss surgery and it changed my life forever.  It flew by so quickly and what a journey it has been.   I have managed to keep off over 200 pounds and I will lose another 140 pounds within the next 2 years. 

This year since March I have lost 33 of 80 pounds gained over the last 3 years.  I am so proud of this accomplishment.  It has not been easy and has taken great effort to persevere.  This will be the 1st year in 3 years that I have not gained weight.  Whoohooo!!

I love taking this time to reflect because at times I get discouraged because I wanted that number to be higher.  But on days like today I see that 33 pounds down is SO much better than gaining.

This is just one of the very best gifts I could have given ME.

Thanks again for support this year as I continue my journey to get healthier and make permanent lifestyle changes.

Have a great day!

Congratulations Molly, I am so proud of you and your continued efforts to be
healthy. You encourage me in this journey, thanks. I know you can do this. Two
hundred pounds is amazing.
Be encouraged~
