2 Year Surgiversary !!!

Jun 17, 2010

Hey...I just realized that today is my 2 YEAR Surgiversary!!!!  I am so thankful for the gift of the VSG....I have lost 80 pounds total and have maintained my weight loss for about a year and 9 months now.  I am so thankful to be heathier than I have been in years. I come to the OH website EVERY day to find others to encourage, to stay focused and motivated.  I love to encourage others on their journey.  I find that in helping others, it always helps me.  Thank you to all of you on this website.  There were many times along my journey that others encouraged me or helped me through a stall.  We all have wisdom to share with others.  God bless all of you!!!!  This past year I went through a lot of serious emotional ups and downs...and it was an amazing blessing to know that I DIDN'T turn to food to comfort me!!!!  I was always an emotional eater in the past.  We must all always remember that our WLS is simply a tool to help us on our journey.  WE make it a success by retraining ourselves as to the way we think about food.  I am addicted to exercise now rather than food!!!  My life has changed so greatly over the past 2 years and so have I.  Losing the weight didn't just change how I look physically.  It helped me to focus on myself inward also.  Yea  ME!!!!!!!
