Hi Everyone . . . The other day I got a friend request and said WOW nobody has viewed my blog for years. It was great, which leads me to this post. December 2013 it has been 8 years since my Gastric Bypass Surgery. I am proud to say I have kept almost all of the weight off all except about 20 lbs. At this point it is all about be careful as to what and when I eat. At times just a little meal fills me up and at times I can eat more. Don't know why this happens but it does. So I must be very very careful as this can lead to undoing all I have accomplished. After 8 years I feel great other than my knees which I destroyed when I was overweight. One knee definitely needs a Knee Replacement and the other is getting there as well. Cortisone shots keep the pain away but nothing can help the weakness in the knees. But at least I am healthy and still remain off of all the prescriptions I was on and all my diseases and illnesses are still gone. So I am blessed to have gone this far with my surgery. I don't want to ever go back to where I was. So caution when eating and discipline will keep me on the right track.
