6 MONTH
on July 19, 2008 9:16 am
OK WELL I AM AT ABOUT 6MONTHS OUT AND I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER. WORDS CANT EXPRESS HOW THANKFUL I AM OF MY DR. HE WILL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH HE HAS CHANGED MY LIFE, EVEN WHEN I TELL HIM HE WEILL STILL NEVER REALLY KNOW. YESTERDAY I CAME HOME FROM WORK AND CLEANED THE ENTIRE HOUSE WITHOUT GETTING TIRED OR STARTING IT AND THEN STOPPING. I TAKE PRIDE IN MYSELF SOMETHING THAT I HAD LOST. AND AS A WOMAN THAT IS IMPORTANT. I FIND MYSELF SHOPPING LIKE EVERY WEEK AND EVEN THOUGH I OUT GROW EVERYTHING SO QUICKLY I DONT EVEN CARE. MY BOYFRIEND NOW SAYS WHY ARE YOU LOOKING GOOD TODAY , i SAY i ALWAYS LOOK GOOD. HE LAUGHS, SO ANYONE WHO IS NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR THEM. I WOULD GO IN AND TELL THE DR. WHAT YOU ARE FEELING CAUSE THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE DONE FOR MYSELF IN ALONG TIME. I FEEL GREAT:)

2& 1/2 MONTHS oUT
on March 30, 2008 7:21 am

Hi, I am about two months out and I started at 368 and 354 before surgery Im down to 304 and I feel so much better. I am starting to like looking in the mirror and not turn my head. I look at other people's profiles to get inspired when I feel like it will never happen. I am loving the new clothes and I try not to buy so much cause I come down so quick. I love this site cause i see people just like me.  I have starting working out and I am enjoying that, I am so worried about my arms and I have been lifting weights I dont want to have bat wings. I also worry about my hair coming out. I have thought about doing this for so long and I still cant believe that i did it. I went to the DR on friday and he said I was doing great and that felt good I wanted him to know how thank ful I am of him and he will never know how much he changed and helped me life.

My Story

                        Hi my name is Sandy and i am a mother of twin girls. I have been thinking of having a gastric bypass for some time now, but was really scared that something would go wrong. The most important thing is being healthy for my girls. Even though I have always been over wieght within the last 3 years I really put on alot of weight and I just feel so tired and my knees have had enough. It is to the point were some days I cant even walk up the stairs in my house. It bothered ma but as long as I could still be a good mother to my girls I just kept going. Then in July of 07 I woke up one morning, in Extreme pain. I couldnt move I called out of work and took some Aleve. But days after I was having the same pain, then one day I went to the ER cause it was worst then anything I had ever felt. ( even a c-scetion) . The ER. MD told me my legs were giving out and I needed to lose weight.
