1 YEAR!
Jan 21, 2009
I seriously can not believe it's been one year since my surgery. It seemed to take so long to get to that point and then everything just took off after that. As of today when I saw my surgeon I have lost 95.9 lbs. I had lost 100 pounds but I am now rebuilding muscle mass and that has added on the scale but clothes are still loose. I have been SO very busy like most people and haven't kept up on my blog or even posting newer pictures of myself. I will do that in the next 2 weeks so I can show off my accomplishment. The weight loss has brought about a more secure, happier me then I ever thought I could be. I am not intimidated easily as I once was. I hold my head up high and actually enjoy exercising. I slack off every now and again on things I should do but quickly straighten myself out. Sometimes I feel like it will all come to an end. We have all heard the stories about the ones who had this surgery but gained so much weight back and truth be told...it scares the crap out of me. My hair falling out was the last thing I expected,lol. It's all been coming back in...but curly! So it creates a lot of problems let me tell you and it will continue to do so until all the straight hair is gone,lol. My gastric surgeon has now recommended I see a plastic surgeon and I have made the appointment for next Wednesday. I am nervous to say the least. Well...I think that's about it for now. So many changes in such a short time.
