Well it sure has been a long time since my last update but I have been so busy with my new job and family. It has been 13 months since my surgery and I have lost 218 lbs. For this first time in 17 years I have weighed below 200lbs. My current weight is 199. My whole life I have struggled with weight and I am just amazed at how this surger has changed my life. This entire experience has taken me to levels in my life that I never knew exsited. My husband and family have been so supported. Without him I could not have made it. I still struggle with some emotional/mental aspects that come with the surgery such as self esteem and anxiety, but I get better and better everyday. I have finally for once in my life realized that I will never have perfect body. My goal is not to be skinny but to be healthy. That is such a big milestone to come to the realization that life is not all about your size but about your life and what you make of it. I have a new life. I feel so much confidence and have such a different outlook on life. As always with everything that I do in my life, I give God all the Glory and He deserves all the credit for allowing me to see life from a different perspective and giving me back the life I never knew I had. Until next time!!!
