In a few days I will be 2 years and 4 months post op, my husband had his rny on june 6th so is not quite 3 months post op but is doing amazing! He is off all medication, pre op he took meds for high blood pressure, diabeties, high cholesterol, high tryglisorites(sp?) a heart med, diuretics for water retention, etc.. his legs and feet were swollen and he always felt like crap. He doesnt even snore anymore, or have the night sweats from the diabeties. He feels so good already and I am so proud of him, he has dropped about 60 pounds already and looks amazing. Even our sex life has been amped way up, so yagh for me!! =)  He works a lot of hours and has a physically demanding job so on his days off he used to just want to sit in the house and watch t.v., now he wants to get out and do things and go places, even just shopping for groceries is funner now because he doesnt need to hurry home because his feet and legs are swollen and hurting. I also love having him totally onboard with healthy eating, it is so much better for our whole family.

I just had my two year surgiversary, I hover right at 156 pounds, I am happy and comfortable with myself at this weight but I know I need to work out more and loose those last 16 pounds.
My husband is having roux en y next month, I am sooo excited for him, he has a lot of health issues and this will surely give him a new lease on life.  

I am 1 year post op today, hard to believe it has already been a year, time flys when your having fun! Today I weigh 172 pounds, just 12 pounds short of my goal weight. It is funny to me because people keep telling me not to loose anymore and that I sure am skinny, but 172 is not too skinny, in fact I am still obese by the bmi scale. It is fine with me even if I don't loose anymore weight and I really am not trying to loose, I will settle at a weight for a few weeks and think I will probably not loose anymore and then I will suddenly loose a few overnight. I need to work out more, I stand all day long doing hair at work and when I get home I am drained physically and mentally from talking to and intertaining people all day. I took meds for high blood pressure pre op and today my blood pressure actually runs a little on the low side, all I have to take these days are all my vitamines. I have become a thrift store junkie, as I lost weight I would find things to wear then and some smaller to look forward to wearing, now I get bummed out when things I really liked are now too big, I am wearing a size 12 pants and a med to large top, went from a 48DDD bra to a 34D, I have a little loose skin but no where as bad as I had thought it would be, I might have my boobs done and a tummy tuck eventually but for now I really am o.k. with just a good bra. I have a lot more energy than I did before, I know I am much more outgoing and never feel self concious in public, I have a cute swim suit just waiting to hit the beach this summer. I love my gastric bypass, it was the best decision I ever made for my health.

I hopped on the scale this morning, after going pee and stripping off the my birthday suit of course, and was happy to see a few more pounds gone, then as I stepped into the shower it hit me that I have lost a little over 100 pounds, a nice chunk of that was pre op and I still have a way to go but it sure made my day. I bought a cute new black skirt and top for work yesterday, it is a 18/20 from the regular ladies dept so I thought it wouldn't even fit yet because a regular ladies 20 is smaller than a women's 20 from the big mama section that has been mine for so long. I wore it to work today and underneath I wore the super cute cheetah print bra I just got, my 6 year old daughter actually picked it out for me, cute bras are one big plus to the shrinking boobage! I am down to a 40DD. I almost asked someone to take a picture of me at work today, I wish I would have, I have avoided cameras for so long that I don't have many pictures pre op.
 As soon as I can get off work tomorrow we are leaving for Pismo for a couple days, we work so much we hardly even see each other for days at a time, so I am really looking forward to it, even if the kids are going too, JK! 
My anniversary is next month, so hopefully just hubby and I can get away for a day or two. I want a Bride of Frankenstein tattoo for my anniversary, I have several tattoos and I love old scary movies, I am in the midst of reinventing myself, I am changing, I have had some parts re arranged, and lost a few parts last year with my hysterectomy, before this is all said and done, I will most likely have some scars from plastics too, so I would love a sexy little pin up Bride of Frankenstein to remind me that I might be a little different and I might bear a few scars but I am a survivor!
