WOW

Nov 25, 2012

When I began this journey I could not know how my life would change. It has now been 4 years. I began at 427 pounds and have now weighed 157-160 for 2 years. I was wearing a size 6X and now wear a small to medium. I have not been this small since I was about 8 years old and today I turn 55. I have never felt better in my life. My life would have been so much better had I had the surgery when I was younger. Please, if you are in your teens, twenties, thirties, or forties, consider changing your life now. I think of the things I now can do, such as have the bar on rides such as a roller coaster come down so I can ride. I am able to sit in those gosh awful small chairs at a Dr.'s office. I can cross my legs. I can climb stairs without getting SOB. I no longer need 8 of the medications I was taking. HOWEVER, the sad part about all of this is I was diagnosed with terminal cancer this past March. But, at least I have enjoyed life the past 2 years. This is why I am telling you younger people to really consider the surgery so you have more years to enjoy your life.
