Man, I can't believe it has only been 9 months since I had surgery. It seems like forever ago. Crazy! I am down 115 pounds! I went from wearing a size 30/32 to now wearing a size 22 jean and 18/20 top! My body has changed so much it isn't even funny. My activity level has changed so much as well it is crazy. Every day I do something that i have never ever done before and it just amazes me. Like I am able to cross my legs now, I can play "horsey" with my daughter, I can fit in most resturant booths. I still have never once regreted having surgery. Yes, I have bad days when I eat something that doesn't agree, but I move on and learn from that experience. I still enjoy food, just in a different way. I still go out to dinner and enjoy nights out with friends, but now instead of having appetizer, dinner, and dessert, I eat dinner and take the rest to go. I know there is no way I would have been able to lose the weight on my own and regain my health the way that I have since surgery and will continue to do. Amazing, that is all I can say.
