Hey friends! I haven't posted in a while. I have been busy taking care of my husband from his unexpected hospital stay while we were in Vegas!! YUCK!! 10 days in the hospital instead of 7days of celebrating my birthday and our anniversary! All is well, though!
I quit losing weight about 2 months ago, but my surgeon is happy with my weight. I just naturally stopped losing and am maintaining a 95 pound weight loss. I feel great and am not having any complications right now! YAY! My goal was 118 but 121 is as low as I could get.....not too bad! My real goal was to be HEALTHY and I have to say I feel sooooo much better! This surgery certainly helped all of my other health issues and I am astounded at the results! It feels good to feel good again! I want to encourage any one thinking about having the bariatric surgery to go for it! It is a safe way to better your life and your health and though it is tough at times, it is all worth it! This forum provides so much encouragement and true experiences that help guide you on this journey! The journey isn't over and will never be. After all the weight is off and you feel normal....you still panic at the gain of a pound or two and need the support that this forum offers! Good luck to all of the beginners here and congratulations to all those who have successfully met their goal or are on their way to meeting them!

You look like a million dollars!

Thank you for the welcome!
