16 Months

Mar 27, 2009

It's been a long time since I've posted.  Today I'm 16 months post op.  Haven't weighed for over a week.  We've been on vacation and had a great time in Florida. Just got home a few hours ago!   It has been a tough winter.  Business was extremely slow and many stressful things going on.  I really needed this break!  Last time I weighed myself, I was 207 which is 161 total pounds lost!  I'm happy where I'm at right now in a size 16 (from a tight 34/36) but I'd love to get below 200. 

Erik and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary on March 18th!  We went to a cabin over the weekend and left  on the 19th for Florida - The whole family went to Florida to celebrate my in-laws 55th anniversary.  We did lots of fun stuff and had a great time!  My eating could have been better, but I did a lot of walking!  I love walking on the beach and feel very fortunate that I can do that again!  We'll see what the scale says tomorrow. 

I spoke at the Fresh Start Bariatrics seminar on Feb. 14th.  I was so nervous, but anxious to share my story with others.  This surgery has given me my life back! 

I'm going in for the results of a bone density scan next week.  My mom and my sister that is just 2 years older than me both have Osteoporosis.  They called and want me to come in to get the results. 

Caught myself doing a lot of stress eating this winter and started seeing Dr. Goldberg again - she is so helpful!

Hope you are all doing well.  I'm going to try to get some pictures posted.

Until next time~Patty
