Four Years Ago Today.

Wow! Has it been four years ago today that I had my VSG (Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy) already? Yes it has been that long ago already. I can't believe it's been that long already. It only feels like it's been half that. I've done so much since then. Now I'm enjoying life every single day. I still have a road ahead of me. I need to have my left hip, right hip, right knee (total joint replacement {I already had my left knee replaced [total knee replacement in 2013]}. I've came a long way to a new me on this journey. My heaviest weight is 565 pounds, my pre-op weight two weeks before weight loss surgery (05/25/2010) is 476.4 pounds. I've lost 304.8 pounds from my pre-op weight and lost 393.4 pounds overall. On this journey I also had two rounds of Panniculectomy, from the first round 20 pounds of fat and skin had been removed and at the same time I had a ventral hernia repaired, from the second (2nd) round only a few pounds of fat and skin had been removed. I don't know what else to say...I'm now lost for words. I love my life now. Having weight loss surgery is the best decision I made in my life.

Wow! What an incredible journey towards renewed health you've had.  Your weight loss and maintenance is awesome.  I hope your future surgeries are uneventful with an easy recovery,

:-) ...indeed. It is and I love it. Thank you, I hope so too.

Wow, WOW, WOW!!!  You are an incredible individual.  I am soooooo proud of you!  That is all quite the accomplishment.  You have, and are, giving yourself a whole new lease on life!

Congrats on all you have accomplished, and best of luck on the road ahead.

Big hugs!

Cindy
