Yesterday, I celebrated my second anniversary since having surgery. Time has just flown by since the surgery and my life has improved more than I ever dreamed possible. It's the simple things that have made life so delightful since the weight has come off. Being able to sit wherever I want in any chair that I want. Gone are the days when I stood or sat in the grass while camping or at outdoor sporting events becasue of those dreaded canvas chairs. I actually look forward to meeting new people instead of dreading it. Last summer, I flew to Northern California to be with my son David and his good friend Brandon. I stayed a week with Brandons parents, something I never would have done at 300 lbs. Just the worry of fitting in the plane seats would have been enough to make me not take the trip let alone staying with people I didn't know. I ended up meeting wonderful people and making wonderful memories that I might have missed out on before surgery. All in all, the last 2 years have been the best in my life because I am finally living.
