2nd Surgiversary!
Oct 01, 2011
I had my RNY 2 years ago yesterday.I lost 115 pounds, give or take, and have kept them off. I still have 60 pounds to get to my surgeon's goal, but it has been hard to go down. Why? Because the year of stall is due to my continued grazing. DON'T GRAZE! Eating in between meals is the kiss of death. Especially if you don't exercise.
I'm trying to increase my exercise, knowing my metabolism is probably shot. My tool (small capacity tummy) still works great. I eat less than 1/2 of what I would before. I am determined to be even more successful. But I have to say, I feel great and look good! Life has been SO much better since I had the surgery. No comparison. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
I still attend WLS support groups and love the comraderie and understanding I get there. That has helped and will continue to help me.
Good luck to those starting the journey and those on the journey. It is a TOOL and one that must be incorporated in a healthy plan - eating and moving.
