2 year update
Apr 01, 2012
As with so many post OP's life sped up for me. I am now 2 years and a few days Post op. I am at below goal sitting at about 135-138 depending on the day. I wear a size 8 and a med shirt. It is unbelievable now to look back at my pre-op pictures. I can't believe I lived with all the extra weight on me for so long. My life has really been made by this surgery- I can do anything now! I am currently trying to get pregnant--not as easy as it seems! I am able to swim and hike and bike comfortably. My husband can pick me up. I can sit in chairs without worrying they will break. I have taken many flights and the seats are much more comfortable. Sleep is better. Sex is better. Clothes are better (ok clothes are awesome!) I will throw up once a month if I push my amounts or my sugar limit--but I try to be very aware of those two things. Life is really great!
PS the one draw back is the skin issue--I look like a melted candle with clothes off- I try not to let it bother me- but I would love to get a body lift at some point--there are just many things I want to do first- like having a baby. Hubby doesn't care so I will let that be for now.
